Frequently asked questions
- Is tetrapeptide-32 safe during pregnancy?
- No harmonised CLP classification (ECHA Annex VI) for tetrapeptide-32 and no CIR or SCCS safety assessment indicating reproductive toxicity. PubMed contains no reports of developmental/reproductive toxicity for tetrapeptide-32; cosmetic peptide is a short, hydrophilic peptide with no known mechanism for teratogenicity. CosIng and PubChem list the ingredient with no reproductive hazard flagged.
- Is tetrapeptide-32 safe while breastfeeding?
- No data indicating reproductive or lactation-specific toxicity; no harmonised CLP hazard for lactation transfer. Given peptide character (large, hydrophilic) systemic absorption from topical use is expected to be negligible, so transfer into breast milk is unlikely based on available sources.
- Is tetrapeptide-32 safe for baby skin?
- No evidence of infant-specific reproductive or developmental hazard. Adult dermal exposure assessed as negligible for systemic absorption; however, immature infant skin has higher permeability so exposure score increased by +1 for 0–3 yr skin. No studies found quantifying dermal absorption in infants.
