Frequently asked questions
- Is hydrogenated rapeseed oil safe during pregnancy?
- No harmonised CLP reproductive classification on ECHA Annex VI and no SCCS/CIR safety assessment flagging reproductive hazards for hydrogenated rapeseed oil. This ingredient is a hydrogenated vegetable oil (emollient) with no published reproductive toxicology or endocrine‑activity data in major databases (PubChem, ECHA dossiers, CosIng). Therefore default scores apply. (Sources: ECHA Annex VI — no harmonised classification; PubChem; CosIng.)
- Is hydrogenated rapeseed oil safe while breastfeeding?
- Same rationale as pregnancy: no harmonised hazard classification or authoritative safety assessment indicating reproductive or lactation concerns, and no reported mechanisms of endocrine disruption or mammary transfer. Topical cosmetic use of saturated hydrogenated vegetable oils is not associated with systemic reproductive toxicity in available regulatory summaries. (Sources: ECHA Annex VI; PubChem; CosIng.)
- Is hydrogenated rapeseed oil safe for baby skin?
- No evidence of infant‑specific reproductive toxicity or mechanistic concerns. Dermal absorption of hydrogenated vegetable oils is expected to be negligible in adults; however, immature infant skin increases potential exposure, so exposure score is increased by +1 for 0–3 yr. No harmonised classification or SCCS/CIR concerns were identified. (Sources: ECHA Annex VI; PubChem; CosIng.)
