Frequently asked questions

Is ribes nigrum leaf extract safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised CLP reproductive classifications (ECHA Annex VI) or SCCS/CIR safety assessments identifying reproductive hazard for Ribes nigrum leaf extract. Peer‑reviewed literature does not report developmental/teratogenic effects for the botanical extract; primary constituents are flavonoids/phenolics not known as reproductive teratogens. Dermal exposure from cosmetics may be low but measurable, so exposure score is 1 (based on CosIng/PubChem ingredient listings and lack of absorption data).
Is ribes nigrum leaf extract safe while breastfeeding?
No evidence of reproductive or lactation-specific hazards in regulatory sources or peer‑reviewed literature. No known mechanism for transfer into breastmilk has been demonstrated; topical cosmetic use would give low but potentially measurable systemic absorption.
Is ribes nigrum leaf extract safe for baby skin?
No evidence of infant-specific reproductive or toxic mechanisms. Because infant skin has higher absorption (immature barrier, higher surface‑area‑to‑weight) a one‑point exposure increment was applied (adult e=1 → infant e=2). No data indicating percutaneous absorption is zero.
