Frequently asked questions

Is hydroxystearic/linolenic/oleic polyglycerides safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised CLP reproductive classification (ECHA Annex VI) and no CIR or SCCS safety findings indicating reproductive toxicity for polyglycerol esters of fatty acids. Components (oleic/linolenic/hydroxystearic acids) are common fatty acids without H360/H361 listings; available regulatory sources do not flag reproductive hazard (ECHA C&L, CosIng, PubChem).
Is hydroxystearic/linolenic/oleic polyglycerides safe while breastfeeding?
Topical polyglycerol fatty acid esters are large, relatively nonvolatile emollients with low dermal systemic availability; no data indicating transfer into breast milk or breastfeeding hazard. No regulatory/safety assessments (CIR/SCCS/ECHA Annex VI) identify breastfeeding risk.
Is hydroxystearic/linolenic/oleic polyglycerides safe for baby skin?
No evidence of reproductive or developmental hazard in authoritative sources. Dermal absorption from topical use is expected to be low for polyglycerol esters, but infant skin barrier immaturity increases potential systemic exposure, so exposure score is increased by +1 versus adult (adult e=0 → infant e=1). No infant‑specific toxicology indicating higher hazard.
