0-6 month old newborns • Skin contact product
For infants (0-6 months): this ingredient is usually low risk and is used in baby skin products. Newborn skin is delicate, so there is a small chance it could irritate the skin or eyes in some babies.
Use products made for babies that list this ingredient only as part of the full formula. Do a small patch test on a tiny area (inner forearm or thigh) and wait 24 hours before wider use. Avoid putting it on broken, red, or inflamed skin and keep it away from the eyes and face. If your baby gets a rash, redness, swelling, or seems more fussy than usual after using the product, stop use and talk to your pediatrician.
Watch for skin redness, bumps, stinging, or eye irritation — the safety literature (Cosmetic Ingredient Review) notes possible irritation though the evidence is limited. Avoid use on babies with known eczema or very sensitive skin without first checking with your pediatrician. If you see any sign of an allergic reaction or breathing trouble, seek medical care right away.
