0-6 month old newborns • Skin contact product
For infants (0-6 months): polyphenols are plant-based ingredients that are usually low risk in adult products, but there is limited information specifically for newborn skin. Because babies this age have very delicate and more absorbent skin, it's best to be cautious.
Prefer products made specifically for babies and newborns. If a product with polyphenols is recommended by a pediatrician or is part of a baby-formulated product, use a small amount on a small patch of body (away from face) and watch for 24–48 hours before wider use. Use sparingly and only when needed. If you see any rash, redness, swelling, or your baby seems uncomfortable, stop use and check with your pediatrician.
Public ingredient safety listings note low overall concern for this ingredient, but they also show limited infant-specific data. Because of that: avoid putting products with botanical extracts near the eyes, nose, or mouth of newborns; do not use on broken or raw skin; stop use and seek advice if you see redness, blistering, hives, or increased fussiness. If you are unsure, ask your pediatrician before introducing a new topical product.
