Frequently asked questions

Is glycine max oil safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised ECHA reproductive classification (no H360/H361) and no CIR or SCCS safety findings indicating reproductive hazard for soybean (Glycine max) oil; peer-reviewed literature and regulatory monographs treat the oil as a low‑toxicity cosmetic ingredient. Dermal cosmetic use yields negligible systemic reproductive hazard (CIR conclusion: safe as used). Sources: CIR, ECHA Annex VI (no reproductive classification), PubChem/CosIng.
Is glycine max oil safe while breastfeeding?
No evidence that topical cosmetic use of Glycine max (soybean) oil produces systemic levels that would appreciably transfer into breast milk. Regulatory assessments (CIR) consider the oil safe as used and there is no harmonised classification for lactation/milk transfer. Any theoretical concern would relate to isoflavones commonly in soybean food extracts rather than the refined oil used in cosmetics.
Is glycine max oil safe for baby skin?
Hazard and mechanism: no infant‑specific reproductive or endocrine hazard data for the oil and no regulatory reproductive flags (h=0, m=0). Exposure: increase by +1 because infant skin has higher permeability and higher surface‑area‑to‑weight, so measurable absorption is more likely than in adults (adult e=0 → infant e=1). Cosmetic-grade soybean oil itself is commonly used as an emollient in products for infants and is generally considered low risk by regulatory/industry reviews.
How does VeriMom score glycine max oil?
