0-6 month old newborns • Skin contact product
Ceramide AP is a gentle, skin-helping ingredient commonly used to repair and protect the skin barrier. For infants and newborns (0–6 months), it is considered low risk when used in baby products made for sensitive skin.
Choose fragrance-free, baby-formulated products that list ceramides or Ceramide AP. Do a small patch test on a tiny area (for example the inner forearm or lower leg) and wait 24–48 hours. Use a small amount at first. If your baby has severe eczema, was born prematurely, or has a history of allergic reactions, ask your pediatrician before use.
Stop use and contact your pediatrician if you see redness, swelling, itching, or a new rash after applying the product. Avoid putting products with Ceramide AP on broken skin, near the eyes, or on mucous membranes. Note: safety guidance and manufacturing recommendations come from the Cosmetic Ingredient Review and some product-verification programs may restrict use of this ingredient without extra testing or documentation.
