Frequently asked questions
- Is prunus armeniaca seed powder safe during pregnancy?
- No harmonised CLP reproductive classification found (ECHA Annex VI). No CIR or SCCS safety assessment flagging reproductive risks for Prunus armeniaca seed powder; peer‑reviewed reproductive/toxicology studies for topical use are lacking. While apricot seeds can contain amygdalin (a cyanogenic glycoside) relevant for oral ingestion, there is no evidence that topical cosmetic use of the seed powder causes reproductive toxicity (CIR; ECHA Annex VI; PubMed absence of topical reproductive data).
- Is prunus armeniaca seed powder safe while breastfeeding?
- No evidence or regulatory classification indicating reproductive or lactation transfer hazards (ECHA Annex VI, CIR). No mechanistic or in vivo data showing placental or milk transfer following topical cosmetic application; ingestion concerns for seeds (amygdalin) do not translate into documented topical lactation risk (PubMed; PubChem; CosIng).
- Is prunus armeniaca seed powder safe for baby skin?
- Prunus armeniaca seed powder is a particulate botanical ingredient (used as an exfoliant). There is no regulatory reproductive or developmental classification and no data showing enhanced percutaneous systemic exposure from cosmetic topical use. Particle form implies negligible dermal absorption; therefore exposure score remains 0 for infants. Note: infant skin is more permeable, but there are no data indicating measurable absorption for this powdered seed ingredient (CosIng; ECHA; EWG).
