Frequently asked questions
- Is lauryl methacrylate/glycol dimethacrylate crosspolymer safe during pregnancy?
- Lauryl methacrylate/glycol dimethacrylate crosspolymer is a high-molecular-weight crosslinked polymer used as a cosmetic thickener/structurant. There is no harmonised CLP reproductive classification (ECHA Annex VI), no SCCS or CIR reproductive safety finding, and no peer-reviewed reproductive toxicity data indicating reproductive hazard; therefore default hazard/mechanism scores are 0 and exposure from topical cosmetic use is considered negligible (sources: ECHA C&L/Annex VI check, CosIng, PubChem, absence of CIR/SCCS opinions).
- Is lauryl methacrylate/glycol dimethacrylate crosspolymer safe while breastfeeding?
- Same rationale as pregnancy: no evidence of reproductive or systemic toxicity and no harmonised classification; as a large crosslinked polymer it is not expected to be systemically absorbed from topical use and therefore exposure via breastmilk is considered negligible (sources: CosIng, PubChem, ECHA C&L checks; no PubMed studies indicating transfer into milk).
- Is lauryl methacrylate/glycol dimethacrylate crosspolymer safe for baby skin?
- Hazard and mechanism remain 0 due to lack of reproductive/toxicological signals. Exposure score increased to 1 for infants (0–3 yr) because although adult dermal absorption is negligible for high-MW crosslinked polymers, infant skin has a thinner barrier and higher surface-area-to-weight ratio so a low but non-zero exposure potential is prudent in absence of infant-specific absorption data (sources: CosIng, PubChem, general polymer dermal absorption principles; no infant-specific studies found in PubMed).
- How does VeriMom score lauryl methacrylate/glycol dimethacrylate crosspolymer?
- VeriMom scores lauryl methacrylate/glycol dimethacrylate crosspolymer at 100/100 (no known risks) based on EU CosIng status, ECHA hazard classifications, and peer-reviewed PubMed studies. Our scoring pipeline is fully transparent.
