For newborns and infants (0-6 months) Ethylene Brassylate appears to be low hazard based on available regulatory reviews, but studies directly on babies are limited. Because infant skin is extra sensitive, it’s best to be cautious.
Prefer fragrance-free baby products for newborns and infants. If a product lists Ethylene Brassylate and you must use it, avoid putting it directly on baby’s skin—apply to your own skin instead (if appropriate), keep the product away from the baby’s face and hands, use the smallest amount possible, and watch the skin closely for any redness, rash, or irritation. Stop use and call your pediatrician if you see a reaction.
Regulatory sources note this ingredient is not expected to be toxic and is allowed for limited use in food (Environment Canada and the U.S. FDA). Still, because very young babies can react to fragrances, avoid routine use of products containing this ingredient on infants under 6 months. Watch for skin redness, irritation, or any breathing changes after exposure and seek medical help if these occur.
