Frequently asked questions

Is vaccinium angustifolium leaf extract safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised CLP reproductive classifications (ECHA Annex VI), no SCCS/CIR safety assessment indicating reproductive hazard, and no peer‑reviewed evidence of developmental or reproductive toxicity for Vaccinium angustifolium leaf extract. Botanical extracts are generally treated as complex mixtures; available literature reports antioxidant/antiinflammatory activity but not teratogenicity (sources: ECHA Annex VI no classification, CosIng entry, PubMed literature lacking repro/tox endpoints).
Is vaccinium angustifolium leaf extract safe while breastfeeding?
No data indicating the ingredient is a lactation/secretory toxin or has systemic reproductive endocrine activity. No harmonised or CIR/SCCS flags; no peer‑reviewed evidence of transfer into breastmilk or adverse effects in nursing infants.
Is vaccinium angustifolium leaf extract safe for baby skin?
Hazard and mechanism: no infant‑specific reproductive or endocrine hazard data found. Exposure: adult topical absorption expected to be low (cosmetic use of polyphenolic botanical extract), but immature infant skin has higher permeability — therefore exposure score increased by +1 for 0–3 yr to reflect potentially higher low-level dermal uptake (sources: CosIng, general dermal absorption principles, lack of adverse data in PubMed).
