0-6 month old newborns • Skin contact product
For newborns and babies 0–6 months, lavender flower extract is generally considered low risk but we recommend extra caution. Most infants won’t have problems, but very young babies have delicate skin and some can get mild irritation or a rash.
If you want to use a product with lavender flower extract on a baby under 6 months: choose products made for babies, use a very small amount on a small patch of skin first (patch test) and wait 24–48 hours to watch for redness or rash. Avoid using it on the face, near the mouth or eyes, or on broken or sore skin. Prefer fragrance-free products for newborns when possible. If the baby has a family history of eczema or allergies, talk with your pediatrician before using new scented products.
Stop using immediately and see your pediatrician if you notice a rash, redness, swelling, or any breathing changes after use. Also note: some product-certification programs restrict this ingredient unless manufacturers provide safety documentation, so it may be absent from certified baby product lines. The restriction and the low-level concerns about allergy/irritation are noted in ingredient safety listings.
