Frequently asked questions

Is sapphire powder safe during pregnancy?
Sapphire powder (mineral corundum/aluminium oxide) is an inert, insoluble mineral used as a physical exfoliant/pigment. No harmonised CLP reproductive classifications (ECHA Annex VI), no SCCS/CIR reproductive restrictions found, and no peer‑reviewed evidence of reproductive toxicity in the cosmetic context; systemic absorption from topical use is negligible (CosIng / PubChem summaries).
Is sapphire powder safe while breastfeeding?
No evidence of reproductive or lactation-specific toxicity; insoluble mineral with negligible dermal absorption so transfer into breast milk is not expected (ECHA/CosIng/PubChem data and lack of SCCS/CIR flags).
Is sapphire powder safe for baby skin?
No infant‑specific reproductive or systemic effects identified. As an insoluble, minimally absorbed particulate, dermal exposure to baby skin is expected to result in negligible systemic exposure. Note: mechanical irritation/abrasion potential exists for delicate infant skin from abrasive powders, but this is a local physical, not reproductive, concern.
