Frequently asked questions

Is lavandula hybrida oil safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised reproductive classification in ECHA Annex VI and no SCCS/CIR determination of reproductive hazard for lavandula hybrida oil; peer-reviewed literature does not show consistent developmental/teratogenic effects for lavandin oil as used cosmetically. Dermal application of essential oils can result in low but measurable absorption of volatile constituents (linalool, linalyl acetate), so exposure is scored as low but measurable. Sources consulted: ECHA Annex VI (no harmonised CLP for CAS 8022-15-9), CosIng/PubChem ingredient listings, and published literature summaries (PubMed) showing no definitive reproductive toxicity signals.
Is lavandula hybrida oil safe while breastfeeding?
No evidence of lactation-specific reproductive toxicity or harmonised classification. Transfer of trace volatile constituents into breastmilk is not documented for lavandin oil; systemic exposure from topical cosmetic use is expected to be low but measurable, so maternal exposure that could reach milk is rated low. Sources: ECHA Annex VI (no harmonised CLP), PubChem/CosIng ingredient entries, absence of studies in PubMed showing milk transfer or nursing-infant harm.
Is lavandula hybrida oil safe for baby skin?
No neonatal-specific reproductive or developmental hazard identified for lavandula hybrida oil. However, because infant skin has a higher surface-area-to-body-weight ratio and an immature barrier, measured adult dermal absorption (low) is conservatively increased by +1 for infants, yielding moderate exposure. Note: there are separate concerns for skin sensitization and irritation of essential oils in infants, but those are not reproductive mechanisms. Sources: CosIng/PubChem for ingredient composition; general dermal absorption and infant skin physiology literature summarized in PubMed reviews; ECHA Annex VI (no harmonised repro hazard).
