No pregnancy-specific topical concern was identified by applying those related-group assessments to ordinary cosmetic exposure.

Natural polysaccharide thickener used for stability and texture. Not associated with pregnancy-specific concerns.

A yeast-derived ferment, filtrate or extract used for skin conditioning. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that cosmetic ingredients derived from the reviewed yeast species are safe in current practices; this record applies to the standardized cosmetic INCI material, not an unspecified live culture.

A botanical root extract used as a skin-conditioning and antioxidant ingredient. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that Panax root-derived ingredients are safe in current practices of use and concentration. The assessment considered the biological activity of ginsenosides and available reproductive and developmental information; ordinary topical cosmetic exposure was not identified as a pregnancy-specific concern. Botanical irritation or allergy remains possible.

Stearic acid is a fatty acid used to stabilise emulsions and improve texture; it is considered low concern in topical cosmetics with no known pregnancy or breastfeeding risks at typical concentrations.
