Frequently asked questions
- Is mentha aquatica leaf extract safe during pregnancy?
- No harmonised CLP reproductive classification (ECHA Annex VI) or SCCS/CIR safety assessment was identified for Mentha aquatica leaf extract (CAS 90063-96-0). No peer‑reviewed evidence of developmental/reproductive toxicity or endocrine disruption specific to this botanical extract was found in the sources searched (PubMed, PubChem, CosIng, EWG). Therefore default score of no evidence (h=0, m=0). Exposure from normal topical cosmetic use is considered negligible for pregnancy (e=0) in the absence of dermal absorption data.
- Is mentha aquatica leaf extract safe while breastfeeding?
- No data indicating transfer to breast milk or lactation toxicity for this ingredient in regulatory databases (no harmonised classification, no CIR/SCCS opinion, no PubMed reports). No known mechanism for lactation toxicity identified. Typical cosmetic topical exposures are not expected to result in significant systemic levels (e=0).
- Is mentha aquatica leaf extract safe for baby skin?
- No baby‑specific reproductive or developmental hazards identified. Mechanistic data are absent (m=0). Although no evidence of significant systemic hazard, infant skin has higher permeability; in the absence of dermal absorption data for this extract, a precautionary minor increase in exposure rating was applied (e=1) to reflect measurable but low absorption potential on immature skin.
