0-6 month old newborns • Skin contact product
For newborns and infants (0–6 months), this plant extract looks low risk overall, but there isn’t much information about how it behaves on baby skin. Because baby skin is thin and can absorb more, we stay cautious.
Prefer not to use products containing this extract on a baby under 6 months unless a pediatrician recommends it. If a clinician suggests it, use it on a very small area first and only on intact (not broken) skin. Stop use right away and call your pediatrician if you see redness, rash, swelling, blisters, or any change in behavior like increased fussiness or feeding trouble.
The reason for extra caution comes from peer-reviewed animal studies that showed metabolic or cellular changes at high doses — this is the source of the concern. Although other listed concerns (cancer, allergy, developmental effects) are rated low in the ingredient data, the lack of infant-specific safety studies and newborn skin differences mean you should avoid routine use on infants and watch closely if exposure happens.
