Frequently asked questions

Is liquidambar orientalis balsam oil safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised CLP reproductive classifications (ECHA Annex VI) and no CIR or SCCS safety assessment flagging reproductive effects; PubMed contains no clear reproductive toxicity studies for Liquidambar orientalis balsam oil (CAS 94891-27-7). As a topical balsam/oil (lipophilic natural mixture) systemic absorption from cosmetic use is plausibly low but measurable, so exposure is scored as low/measurable rather than negligible.
Is liquidambar orientalis balsam oil safe while breastfeeding?
No evidence of reproductive or lactation-specific toxicity in regulatory databases or peer-reviewed literature (no harmonised H361/H360, no CIR/SCCS concerns). Topical absorption is likely low but measurable so a low exposure potential to breastmilk cannot be excluded for topical use.
Is liquidambar orientalis balsam oil safe for baby skin?
No infant-specific toxicity or developmental toxicity data identified (no harmonised classification). Because baby skin has higher absorption and immature barrier, exposure score is increased by +1 relative to adult (adult e=1 → baby e=2) yielding moderate exposure potential for topical application to infants.
