Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

No known risks

Common emollient derived from fatty acids and glycerin. Used to soften skin and improve texture without pregnancy-specific concerns.

Sources: Cosmetic Ingredient Review (US); Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (EU)

Zinc Oxide

No known risks

Mineral ingredient used as a UV filter and skin protectant in many creams and mineral sunscreens. For typical topical use, systemic absorption is very low and it is generally considered acceptable in pregnancy and breastfeeding. If you prefer a cautious approach, avoid inhaling loose powders or spray formats.

Questions about this assessment

Why does ANTIPODES Supernatural SPF 50+ Ceramide Silk Facial Sunscreen have a No known risks rating?

No higher-risk ingredient flags are shown in the assessed entries. Ingredients without a matched rating are marked Not assessed, not No known risks. The product score is a stored assessment, not a clinical safety guarantee.

Is the MamaSkin score a measure of SPF or sun protection?

No. The score and risk band describe MamaSkin's pregnancy-focused ingredient screening of this recorded formula. They do not measure SPF, UVA protection, water resistance or whether you have applied enough sunscreen. Use the protection and application instructions on your exact packaging, and review the ingredient flags separately.

Has every ingredient in ANTIPODES Supernatural SPF 50+ Ceramide Silk Facial Sunscreen been assessed?

12 of 12 ingredient entries on this page have a recorded score, evidence summary and source text. That describes documentation coverage, not proof that the finished formula has been clinically tested during pregnancy.

Does this assessment apply to my ANTIPODES Supernatural SPF 50+ Ceramide Silk Facial Sunscreen?

Only if the ingredient list on your packaging matches the recorded formula shown here. Formulas can differ by market and change over time. Compare the full list, not just the product name; report a mismatch if it differs.

Does this pregnancy assessment also establish breastfeeding suitability?

No. This page presents a pregnancy-focused product assessment. Do not infer a breastfeeding conclusion from its score or label; breastfeeding requires a separate assessment of the formula and how it is used.
