Frequently asked questions

Is sh-decapeptide-7 safe during pregnancy?
No evidence found of reproductive or developmental toxicity for 'sh‑decapeptide‑7' in authoritative cosmetic safety sources (no harmonised CLP classification in ECHA Annex VI, no CIR or SCCS safety assessment). As a short synthetic peptide used topically, there is no peer‑reviewed signal or regulatory flag indicating teratogenicity or reproductive hazard, so default hazard/mechanism scores are 0. (Sources consulted: ECHA Annex VI, SCCS/CIR databases, PubMed/CosIng/PubChem summaries.)
Is sh-decapeptide-7 safe while breastfeeding?
No data indicating transfer into breastmilk or effects on lactation or nursing infants. No harmonised classification or safety assessment raising concern; peptides of this type are generally not associated with systemic reproductive toxicity when used topically. Therefore hazard and mechanism scored 0 and exposure scored 0 (low likelihood of significant systemic exposure). (Sources consulted: SCCS/CIR, PubMed, PubChem, CosIng.)
Is sh-decapeptide-7 safe for baby skin?
No infant‑specific safety data located. Peptides are generally poorly absorbed topically, but infant skin has higher permeability; per instructions exposure for baby skin is increased by +1 relative to adult when measurable absorption cannot be excluded. No evidence of infant toxicity or developmental mechanism was found, so hazard and mechanism remain 0. (Sources consulted: CosIng, PubMed, ECHA summaries.)
