Frequently asked questions

Is salvia sclarea extract safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised CLP reproductive classification for Salvia sclarea extract (ECHA Annex VI). Regulatory cosmetic inventories (CosIng) list Salvia sclarea extract without use restrictions and there is no CIR or SCCS safety assessment flagging reproductive toxicity. PubMed contains no robust animal or human reproductive hazard studies for the extract; therefore no reproductive hazard is identified. Topical cosmetic use can give low but measurable dermal exposure to small volatile constituents (e.g., linalool/linalyl acetate reported in clary sage oil), so exposure is scored as low but measurable.
Is salvia sclarea extract safe while breastfeeding?
No evidence (harmonised CLP, CIR, SCCS or peer-reviewed) that Salvia sclarea extract causes reproductive or lactation-specific toxicity, and no classification for lactation hazard. Dermal application results in low but measurable systemic exposure potential similar to pregnancy scoring.
Is salvia sclarea extract safe for baby skin?
No infant-specific reproductive or developmental toxicity data found. Given measurable dermal absorption in adults for small volatile constituents and the increased uptake potential of infant skin (higher surface-area-to-weight and immature barrier), exposure score is increased by +1 versus adults to reflect moderate exposure potential for topical use on infants (0–3 yr).
