Ingredient ratings and evidence

Higher-risk flags first. Open an ingredient for evidence.

Cyclohexasiloxane

Low risk

A volatile cyclic silicone also known as D6, used for slip and quick-drying texture. Normal topical exposure is expected to be limited, but exact-ingredient pregnancy evidence is limited and cyclic siloxanes have route-specific toxicology and regulatory considerations. MamaSkin therefore classifies it as low risk rather than a pregnancy contraindication.

Has every ingredient in Glad2Glow 5% Blueberry Moisturizer Cream been assessed?

42 of 45 ingredient entries on this page have a recorded score, evidence summary and source text. 3 entries do not have all of those fields. Unmatched or unrated entries are marked Not assessed in grey; missing evidence does not establish safety.

Does this assessment apply to my Glad2Glow 5% Blueberry Moisturizer Cream?

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.
