Frequently asked questions

Is macadamia seed oil polyglyceryl-6 esters behenate safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised CLP reproductive classification, no SCCS or CIR safety assessment raising reproductive concerns, and no peer‑reviewed evidence of reproductive or developmental toxicity specific to this ingredient. As a high‑molecular‑weight fatty acid/glycerol ester emollient, it is not associated with known reproductive hazards (CosIng, PubChem, ECHA data absence).
Is macadamia seed oil polyglyceryl-6 esters behenate safe while breastfeeding?
No data indicating breastmilk transfer or lactation toxicity. No authoritative sources (CIR/SCCS/ECHA Annex VI) identify risks; expected systemic exposure from topical use is negligible for such esters, so breastfeeding risk is considered negligible.
Is macadamia seed oil polyglyceryl-6 esters behenate safe for baby skin?
No infant‑specific reproductive or systemic toxicity data. Adult dermal absorption is expected to be negligible for a large polyglyceryl‑ester emollient (so adult e=0). Per instruction, infant skin has higher absorption potential; therefore exposure score is increased by +1 to e=1 despite absence of hazard evidence. No harmonised classifications or studies indicate infant hazard.
