Frequently asked questions

Is hydrogenated rapeseed alcohol safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised CLP reproductive classification (ECHA Annex VI) or SCCS/CIR reproductive safety restrictions identified, and no clear peer‑reviewed evidence of reproductive or teratogenic effects for hydrogenated rapeseed fatty alcohols; fatty alcohols are generally low toxicity and not associated with reproductive hazards (sources checked: ECHA Annex VI, SCCS/CIR, PubMed, CosIng, PubChem).
Is hydrogenated rapeseed alcohol safe while breastfeeding?
No data indicating reproductive or lactation/transfer concerns; no harmonised classifications or CIR/SCCS warnings. Systemic exposure from cosmetic topical use is expected to be negligible for adults (sources: CIR, PubChem, CosIng, ECHA dossiers).
Is hydrogenated rapeseed alcohol safe for baby skin?
Hazard and mechanism: no infant‑specific reproductive or developmental toxicity evidence found. Exposure: increase for babies by +1 because infant skin has higher permeability/surface‑area‑to‑weight so measurable dermal absorption of fatty alcohols is plausible even though adult dermal absorption is low (sources: general dermal pharmacokinetics principles, CosIng, PubChem).
