Frequently asked questions
- Is polyglyceryl-3 methylglucose distearate safe during pregnancy?
- No harmonised CLP classification (ECHA Annex VI) or SCCS/CIR reproductive restriction found. No peer‑reviewed evidence of reproductive or developmental toxicity for this ingredient; cosmetics databases (CosIng, PubChem) list it as an emulsifier/surfactant with no reproductive flags.
- Is polyglyceryl-3 methylglucose distearate safe while breastfeeding?
- No data indicating reproductive or lactation hazards, no harmonised classification, and no toxicokinetic data suggesting significant systemic availability following topical cosmetic use; therefore judged low/negligible exposure for breastfeeding mothers under normal cosmetic use.
- Is polyglyceryl-3 methylglucose distearate safe for baby skin?
- No evidence of reproductive or mechanistic hazard for infants. As a high‑molecular‑weight nonionic polyglyceryl/stearate emulsifier it is expected to have negligible dermal penetration in adults (adult e=0); however immature infant skin has higher absorption potential so exposure score increased by +1 to reflect measurable but low absorption potential.
