Frequently asked questions

Is simmondsia chinensis seed extract safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised reproductive hazard classification (ECHA Annex VI) and no CIR/SCCS finding of reproductive risk for Simmondsia chinensis (jojoba) seed extract/jojoba-derived materials; general safety assessments (CIR) conclude 'safe as used' for topical cosmetic use and peer-reviewed data do not indicate teratogenicity, so default low hazard and negligible exposure for normal cosmetic topical use.
Is simmondsia chinensis seed extract safe while breastfeeding?
No evidence of reproductive or lactation-specific toxicity in available safety assessments (CIR) or regulatory listings; no harmonised classification or peer-reviewed data indicating transfer into breast milk or adverse effects on nursing infants from cosmetic topical use.
Is simmondsia chinensis seed extract safe for baby skin?
Hazard and mechanism: no infant-specific reproductive/toxic data indicating concern (CIR, no ECHA harmonised classification). Exposure: although adult topical exposure is considered negligible for safety scoring, infant skin has higher absorption potential; therefore exposure is increased by +1 for 0–3 yr (resulting in low but measurable exposure).
