Ingredient ratings and evidence
Higher-risk flags first. Open an ingredient for evidence.
Arbutin
Medium risk
Arbutin (beta-arbutin) is a skin-brightening ingredient and a glycosylated hydroquinone. Key concerns are potential hydroquinone release/contamination, dermal absorption, and combined exposure when multiple hydroquinone-releasing substances are used across products. Pregnancy-specific human outcome data for topical cosmetic exposure are limited; the medium-risk signal is hydroquinone-related concern plus limited pregnancy-specific evidence.

Diphenyl Dimethicone
Low risk
This ingredient is a silicone polymer documented within CIR's broader dimethicone and substituted-methicone family assessment. CIR concluded the reviewed ingredients safe as used when formulated to be non-irritating to skin and eyes. This is family-level cosmetic evidence, not ingredient-specific human pregnancy evidence for every derivative. MamaSkin therefore retains Low Risk without claiming negligible absorption for this individual ingredient.

Questions about this assessment
Why does Anua Rice 70 Glow Milky Toner have a Medium risk rating?
The recorded formula includes 2 ingredient entries with risk flags: Arbutin (Medium risk), Diphenyl Dimethicone (Low risk). These are ingredient-level flags; they do not replace the stored product assessment or account for every formulation detail. The product score is a stored assessment, not a clinical safety guarantee.
Does the niacinamide rating cover every ingredient in this product?
No. Niacinamide appears in the recorded formula, but its individual rating applies to that ingredient, not automatically to the whole product. Check the other ingredient ratings, any grey Not assessed entries and the stored product assessment. A niacinamide percentage or a product name is not a substitute for checking the full list.
Has every ingredient in Anua Rice 70 Glow Milky Toner been assessed?
38 of 38 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 Anua Rice 70 Glow Milky Toner?
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.
