0-6 month old newborns • Skin contact product
For infants (0-6 months), Indian gooseberry seed oil is likely low risk based on ingredient reviews, but babies’ skin is very delicate. There isn’t much research specifically in newborns, so we should be careful.
If you want to try a product with this ingredient on your baby: use a product made for babies, apply only a very small amount to a tiny area (for example, the forearm) and wait 24–48 hours to watch for any reaction. Don’t put it on the face, diaper area, or broken skin. If your baby has eczema or known skin sensitivity, check with your pediatrician before trying it.
The ingredient review data shows very low concern for cancer, allergy, and reproductive issues, but because infant skin is more sensitive and specific studies in newborns are limited, watch for redness, swelling, itchiness, blistering, or any change in behavior (fussiness during skin contact). Stop use immediately and contact your pediatrician if you see any of these signs. This caution is based on the available ingredient safety review data and the known sensitivity of infant skin.
