Frequently asked questions

Is lactobacillus ferment lysate safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised CLP classification (ECHA Annex VI), no CIR or SCCS reproductive safety flag, and no credible peer‑reviewed evidence of reproductive or teratogenic effects for topical Lactobacillus ferment lysate. Topical application of a bacterial lysate is not expected to have systemic reproductive toxicity based on available safety frameworks (CIR default approach and absence of H statements). Sources checked: ECHA Annex VI, CIR, SCCS, PubMed, CosIng, PubChem.
Is lactobacillus ferment lysate safe while breastfeeding?
No evidence of reproductive or lactation-related hazard or of transfer into breastmilk from topical use. No harmonised classifications or regulatory safety assessments indicate risk to breastfeeding; systemic exposure from topical use is expected to be negligible.
Is lactobacillus ferment lysate safe for baby skin?
Hazard and mechanism: no specific infant reproductive or developmental toxicity data and no regulatory flags (h=0, m=0). Exposure: infant skin has an immature barrier and higher surface‑area‑to‑weight, so exposure is higher than adult topical use; given the ingredient is a bacterial cell lysate (not a small nonpolar molecule), systemic absorption is expected to be low but not absolutely zero — therefore e scored as 1 for babies (increase of +1 from adult e per instruction).
