Frequently asked questions

Is pvm/ma decadiene crosspolymer safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised CLP classification or SCCS/CIR safety restriction found for PVM/MA decadiene crosspolymer; no peer-reviewed reproductive or developmental toxicity data identified in available regulatory sources (ECHA, PubChem, CosIng). As a high‑MW crosslinked polymer/film former it is regarded as of low systemic hazard for reproductive endpoints under normal cosmetic use (CIR/SCCS default approach).
Is pvm/ma decadiene crosspolymer safe while breastfeeding?
No data indicating reproductive or lactation-associated toxicity, no harmonised classification, and no evidence of mammary transfer. Given its polymeric/high molecular weight nature and lack of reported systemic toxicity, expected exposure to milk is negligible under normal topical cosmetic use.
Is pvm/ma decadiene crosspolymer safe for baby skin?
No specific infant studies located. Adult systemic hazard/mechanism evidence absent (h=0,m=0). Exposure score increased by +1 for baby skin (e=1) because infant skin has higher permeability and surface-area-to-weight, and while the polymer is expected to have negligible dermal absorption in adults, it cannot be assumed completely non‑absorbable for infants without specific absorption data.
