Myristyl Malate Phosphonic Acid
Not assessed
No matched ingredient rating is available yet. Not assessed does not mean safe or unsafe.
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.

PPG-5 Pentaerythrityl Ether
No known risks
This defined propoxylated polyol is used in a conventional cosmetic emollient preparation. Specific component and nonionic ether evidence support ordinary topical use. Direct pregnancy studies are limited; low-molecular-weight uptake and concentrated irritation are not assumed absent.

PEG-5 Pentaerythrityl Ether
No known risks
This defined short-chain polyol ether is used in a conventional cosmetic emollient preparation. Component toxicology and the specific nonionic ether structure support ordinary topical use. Direct pregnancy studies are limited; ethoxylation impurities and skin irritation remain relevant.

Panthenol
No known risks
Panthenol (pro-vitamin B5) is used for soothing and barrier support and is generally well tolerated, with no known pregnancy or breastfeeding concerns in topical cosmetic use.
Sources: CIR; EU/UK Cosmetics Regulation
Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil
No known risks
A plant-derived fatty oil or butter used mainly as an emollient, conditioning ingredient or texture agent. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that the assessed plant-derived fatty acid oils are safe in current practices of use and concentration. This conclusion applies to cosmetic-grade fixed oils rather than similarly named volatile essential oils. Seed or food allergy may still matter for a susceptible person.

Silica Silylate
No known risks
A surface-modified silica used to thicken oils and improve texture. Cosmetic safety reviewers concluded that silica silylate is safe in current practices when the final product is not irritating or sensitising to the respiratory tract. Avoid deliberately inhaling loose or airborne powder.

Polybutene
No known risks
A large, mostly insoluble polymer used as a binder, film former and texture ingredient. Cosmetic safety reviewers reaffirmed polybutene as safe in current cosmetic use, and a multigeneration reproductive study did not identify adverse effects. Normal topical exposure is not expected to create a pregnancy- or breastfeeding-specific concern.

Questions about this assessment
Why does La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Lips 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. Incomplete ingredient documentation does not establish safety; see the coverage answer and grey entries below.
Does a barrier-care product name establish pregnancy suitability?
No. This recorded formula contains Panthenol or Madecassoside, but a barrier-care claim does not establish the assessment of all its other ingredients. Read the individual ingredient evidence and any manual-review explanation, and compare the recorded list with your packaging.
Has every ingredient in La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Lips been assessed?
14 of 15 ingredient entries on this page have a recorded score, evidence summary and source text. 1 entry does 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 La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Lips?
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.
