Is this safe for 0-6 month old newborns to use Lavandula Angustifolia Lavender Flower Extract?
ℹ️General Overview
For newborns and babies 0–6 months: this lavender flower extract is not recommended to be applied to your baby’s skin. While overall it’s seen as low concern in general safety listings, babies’ skin and airways are very sensitive and can react.
✅What to Do
Avoid using lotions, oils, or creams that list lavender flower extract on babies younger than 6 months. If a product with this ingredient is already on hand, don’t put it on the baby’s face or near their nose and mouth. For older babies (over 6 months) only use products made for infants and do a small patch test on the arm first. Stop use and call your pediatrician if you see a rash, swelling, or breathing trouble.
⚠️Warnings
Watch for redness, rash, swelling, hives, or any breathing changes after exposure. The ingredient is listed as restricted by some product verification programs unless manufacturers provide extra safety information, so check product labels and choose verified infant-safe or fragrance-free options when possible. The restriction comes from the ingredient’s safety listing used for this review.
