0-6 month old newborns • Skin contact product
For newborns and babies (0-6 months), this mushroom stem extract is probably low risk based on ingredient assessments, but there isn’t much data directly studying its use on baby skin. Baby skin is delicate and can react when exposed to plant extracts.
Prefer products made for infants. If you are considering a product with this extract for a newborn, check with your pediatrician first. If you decide to try it, do a small patch check: apply a tiny amount to a small area (inside of the forearm) and wait 24 hours for any redness or irritation. Avoid putting it on a baby’s face, near the eyes or mouth, or on broken or irritated skin. Stop use and contact your pediatrician if you see a rash, swelling, or other concerning changes.
Watch for redness, rash, swelling, hives, or any breathing changes — these are signs of an allergic reaction. Avoid use if your baby has a known mushroom allergy. These precautions come from available ingredient safety listings that show low overall concerns but note limited infant-specific data, so extra caution is advised for newborns.
