0-6 month old newborns • Skin contact product
For infants (newborns and babies 0–6 months), this bamboo extract is likely low risk when used in products made for babies. There is limited testing specifically in very young infants, so we remain careful.
Use only products labeled for babies or sensitive skin. Before full use, do a small patch test: apply a tiny amount behind the ear or on the inner forearm of the baby and wait 24 hours to check for redness or irritation. Avoid putting the product on broken, scraped, or inflamed skin and keep it away from the eyes and mouth. Use sparingly and stop use if you see any rash, swelling, or other changes. If you are unsure, talk with your pediatrician before introducing a new product.
Watch for signs of an allergic reaction — redness, swelling, hives, or breathing difficulty — and stop use immediately if these occur and seek medical care. This guidance is based on the provided ingredient safety listing, which rated cancer, allergy/immune effects, and developmental/reproductive concerns as low but notes limited infant-specific data. Avoid using concentrated DIY extracts or non-baby formulations on newborn skin.
