Frequently asked questions
- Is polysilicone-13 safe during pregnancy?
- Polysilicone-13 is a high-molecular-weight silicone polymer used as a film former/conditioning agent in cosmetics. There is no harmonised CLP reproductive classification for this substance, no SCCS or CIR finding indicating reproductive hazard, and available databases (CosIng, PubChem, ECHA dossiers) do not report reproductive toxicity—therefore assessed as no evidence of reproductive hazard for pregnancy.
- Is polysilicone-13 safe while breastfeeding?
- No data (harmonised CLP, SCCS, CIR, or peer‑reviewed reports) indicate reproductive or lactation-related toxicity for polysilicone‑13. As a large silicone polymer it is not expected to be systemically bioavailable following topical use, so risk to breastfeeding is not indicated in available sources.
- Is polysilicone-13 safe for baby skin?
- Polysilicone‑13 is a large, low‑volatility polymeric silicone used topically; typical assessments and regulatory listings (CosIng, PubChem, ECHA) do not report dermal systemic absorption or infant-specific hazards. Given its polymeric nature, absorption is expected to be negligible and therefore exposure for baby skin is also assessed as minimal.
