Frequently asked questions
- Is phospholipids safe during pregnancy?
- No harmonised CLP reproductive classification (ECHA Annex VI) or SCCS/CIR reproductive safety restriction was identified for 'phospholipids' as a class; cosmetic safety assessments (CIR/SCCS practice) treat phospholipids as biocompatible excipients and no peer-reviewed evidence shows developmental/reproductive toxicity for topical cosmetic use (PubMed, CIR, CosIng).
- Is phospholipids safe while breastfeeding?
- No harmonised classifications or authoritative safety assessments identify phospholipids as reproductive or lactation hazards; systemic exposure from topical cosmetic use is expected to be negligible and no data indicate transfer to breast milk after cosmetic use (CIR, PubMed, CosIng).
- Is phospholipids safe for baby skin?
- No evidence of reproductive or developmental hazard specific to infants. Intact phospholipids are large amphipathic molecules with low expected systemic bioavailability from topical adult use, but infant/0–3y skin has a less-mature barrier and higher surface-area-to-weight so exposure score is increased by +1 (adult e=0 → infant e=1). No infant-specific toxicological signals found in CIR/SCCS/PubMed.
- How does VeriMom score phospholipids?
