0-6 month old newborns • Skin contact product
For infants (0–6 months): this ingredient is commonly used to soften skin and is generally considered low-risk in safety summaries. Still, because newborn and infant skin is very delicate and there are some data gaps and use restrictions noted by safety reviewers, extra caution is advised.
If you want to use a product that lists hydrolyzed jojoba esters on a baby under 6 months: pick products made for infants, use only a small amount on a small area first, avoid applying on broken or irritated skin, and stop use if you see any redness or rash. If your baby has eczema or very sensitive skin, talk to your pediatrician before using products that are not explicitly formulated for newborns.
Watch for any signs of irritation (redness, swelling, rash, blisters) and stop use right away if they occur. Safety reviewers (industry safety panels) have noted data gaps and that safety depends on how much of the ingredient is in the product, and a major product-verification program restricts use of this ingredient unless the maker provides supporting safety data. Because of those notes, avoid products where the concentration or safety testing is unclear, and consult your child’s pediatrician for use on very young infants or if the baby has medical needs.
