Frequently asked questions

Is schinziophyton rautanenii kernel oil safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised CLP reproductive classification (ECHA Annex VI) and no SCCS/CIR safety finding indicating reproductive hazard. Literature (PubMed) and ingredient databases (CosIng, PubChem) describe mongongo (Schinziophyton rautanenii) kernel oil as a plant-derived cosmetic oil with fatty-acid constituents and no reported reproductive or developmental toxicity; therefore hazard and mechanism scores default to 0. Topical oils can have low but measurable dermal absorption, so exposure during pregnancy scored as 1.
Is schinziophyton rautanenii kernel oil safe while breastfeeding?
Same rationale as pregnancy: no reproductive or lactation-specific toxicology signals in PubMed or regulatory lists, no harmonised CLP classification, and no CIR/SCCS contraindication. Low but measurable dermal absorption from topical oils is plausible, so exposure scored as 1.
Is schinziophyton rautanenii kernel oil safe for baby skin?
No infant-specific adverse reports or classifications. Hazard and mechanism remain 0 in absence of data. Because infant skin has higher permeability and surface-area-to-weight, exposure score increased by +1 relative to adult (adult 1 → infant 2). Mongongo oil is commonly used in topical products and composed mainly of fatty acids/waxes with no known infant-specific toxicity.
