0-6 month old newborns • Skin contact product
Aloe vera leaf water is usually low risk for skin products, but for newborns and babies under 6 months you should be extra careful because their skin is very sensitive and there isn’t a lot of data just for this age.
If possible, avoid putting products with aloe on a baby younger than 6 months unless a doctor or pediatrician recommends it. If you do use it: pick a product made for babies, use a very small amount on a small patch of skin first, keep it away from the face and eyes, and stop use if you see any redness, swelling, rash, or irritation.
Some industry safety reviews note limits on how much and how aloe should be processed (Cosmetic Ingredient Review). A few product certification programs require extra proof before allowing this ingredient. Watch for any signs of skin irritation or allergic reaction in your baby, and do not apply to broken skin or open wounds. If you see a rash, fussiness, breathing trouble, or swelling, stop use and contact your pediatrician right away.
