Frequently asked questions
- Is salvia officinalis leaf extract safe during pregnancy?
- No harmonised CLP reproductive classification for Salvia officinalis leaf extract in ECHA Annex VI; no SCCS or CIR reproductive restriction found. Peer-reviewed literature does not show confirmed teratogenicity or reproductive toxicity for the cosmetic leaf extract; concerns for reproductive toxicity are mainly associated with thujone-containing essential oils (different material). Regulatory databases (CosIng, PubChem) list the extract without reproductive hazard flags.
- Is salvia officinalis leaf extract safe while breastfeeding?
- No authoritative regulatory classification or CIR/SCCS opinion indicating hazard for breastfeeding. No clinical/epidemiological evidence of transfer or lactation-related adverse effects for the cosmetic leaf extract. As with pregnancy, essential-oil constituents (thujone) are a separate issue and not intrinsic to typical extracts.
- Is salvia officinalis leaf extract safe for baby skin?
- No evidence of reproductive or developmental hazard specific to infants. Topical exposure to a leaf extract is expected to have low but measurable dermal absorption; per instruction, infant exposure score is increased by +1 relative to adults due to thinner skin and higher surface-area-to-weight, yielding e=1. If the product contained concentrated oil (thujone) or solvent residues, assessment would differ.
