0-6 month old newborns • Skin contact product
For newborns and infants (0–6 months): aloe vera leaf juice is usually low risk in small amounts, but babies this young have very sensitive skin. It may cause irritation in some infants and industry safety reviews recommend using it only within set limits.
If your baby is 0–6 months, avoid putting straight aloe gel or undiluted aloe products on the skin, especially on newborns or on rashes and broken skin. Prefer products made for infants or plain water/soap for cleaning. If you must use a product with aloe (for example a wipe or baby lotion), choose one made for babies, use it sparingly, and watch your baby’s skin closely. Stop use and call your pediatrician if you see redness, irritation, swelling, or a new rash.
Watch for skin redness, stinging, itching, or swelling — these are signs of irritation or allergy. Industry safety reviews (Cosmetic Ingredient Review) note that impurities and concentration limits matter, and one animal study reported reproductive effects at moderate doses, so avoid frequent or high-concentration use on infants. Also be cautious about products that do not list concentrations or that contain other active ingredients. If your baby has a history of sensitive skin or eczema, check with your pediatrician before using products with aloe.
