Frequently asked questions

Is malva sylvestris leaf extract safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised CLP classification for reproductive toxicity (ECHA Annex VI). No SCCS or CIR safety assessment indicating reproductive hazards, and no peer‑reviewed evidence of teratogenicity or reproductive toxicity for Malva sylvestris leaf extract in available regulatory sources (CosIng, PubChem). Therefore default score of 0 (no evidence of reproductive hazard or mechanism; negligible topical exposure expected for cosmetic use).
Is malva sylvestris leaf extract safe while breastfeeding?
No regulatory or peer‑reviewed evidence that Malva sylvestris leaf extract causes reproductive or lactation-related toxicity or is systemically bioaccumulative. No harmonised classification or CIR/SCCS restriction was found; thus default 0 for hazard/mechanism and negligible exposure from normal topical cosmetic use.
Is malva sylvestris leaf extract safe for baby skin?
No evidence of reproductive or developmental toxicity specific to infants. Per scoring rules, because this is a botanical extract (not completely non‑absorbable) but lacking evidence of significant systemic absorption, adult exposure is scored 0 while infant exposure is increased by +1 due to immature skin barrier (hence e=1). No infant‑specific adverse data found in regulatory sources.
