Frequently asked questions

Is myristica fragrans extract safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised CLP reproductive classification (ECHA Annex VI) or SCCS/CIR adverse reproductive opinion was identified for Myristica fragrans extract (CAS 84082-68-8). Regulatory databases (CosIng, PubChem) list the extract without reproductive hazard classification, and there are no clear peer‑reviewed data demonstrating teratogenicity or developmental toxicity attributable to this cosmetic extract; therefore default 'no evidence' scoring applies.
Is myristica fragrans extract safe while breastfeeding?
No authoritative sources (harmonised CLP, SCCS, CIR) identify a lactation/transfer hazard for this extract. There is no documented mechanism or human data showing transfer into breastmilk for the cosmetic extract, and no regulatory warnings were found.
Is myristica fragrans extract safe for baby skin?
Hazard and mechanism: no infant‑specific reproductive/toxicity data or regulatory classification found. Exposure: dermal exposure is considered low but measurable for botanical extracts applied topically; per guidance, infant exposure score is increased by +1 vs adult (adult e=0 → infant e=1) because baby skin has higher absorption and the extract is not completely non‑absorbable.
