Pulsatilla Koreana Extract

Low risk

A high-exposure topical Pulsatilla koreana extract case caused acute bullous irritant dermatitis; protoanemonin is a plausible irritant in damaged plant material. A dilute finished cosmetic has not been studied for pregnancy outcomes. Low reflects local-injury potential, not proven fetal toxicity.

Usnea Barbata Extract

Low risk

Purified usnic acid has caused developmental effects in animal studies, and whole Usnea preparations have shown systemic effects. Because an unspecified whole extract is not equivalent to purified usnic acid, Low Risk is a proportionate precaution.
