Frequently asked questions
- Is keratin amino acids safe during pregnancy?
- No harmonised ECHA classification for reproductive toxicity, no SCCS or CIR reproductive safety concerns found, and peer‑reviewed literature does not report teratogenic or reproductive effects for keratin hydrolysates or keratin amino acids in topical cosmetic use (sources searched: ECHA Annex VI, CIR, SCCS, PubMed, CosIng, PubChem, EWG).
- Is keratin amino acids safe while breastfeeding?
- No data indicating systemic reproductive or lactation-associated toxicity; dermally applied keratin amino acids are peptides/amino acids with low likelihood of significant systemic exposure from cosmetic use, and no breastfeeding-specific hazards were identified in the sources searched (ECHA Annex VI, CIR, PubMed, CosIng, PubChem, EWG).
- Is keratin amino acids safe for baby skin?
- No evidence of reproductive or developmental hazard specific to infants. Adult dermal absorption is expected to be negligible for keratin hydrolysates; per instruction, infant exposure score is increased by +1 due to immature skin barrier and higher surface‑area‑to‑weight (so e = 1). No infant‑specific adverse data were found (sources: ECHA Annex VI, CIR, PubMed, CosIng, PubChem, EWG).
