0-6 month old newborns • Skin contact product
For newborns and infants (0-6 months) this ingredient is usually safe. It’s a sugar-based moisturiser that helps skin hold water and is used in baby lotions and wipes. Overall risk is low for most babies when used on normal, unbroken skin.
If using a product with this ingredient on a baby: choose products made for newborns with few other additives, apply a small amount first to a tiny patch of skin (inner forearm or upper thigh) and wait 24 hours to check for any reaction, don’t put it on raw or broken skin, and avoid the eyes and mouth. If your baby has eczema or very sensitive skin, try to use a product recommended by your pediatrician.
Stop use and call your doctor if you see redness, swelling, hives, increased fussiness, or any breathing difficulty after application. The ingredient safety listing used here shows low concern for cancer, allergy and developmental effects, but rare allergic or irritant reactions can still happen — especially on inflamed or damaged skin. Avoid using on open wounds or severe rashes unless directed by a health professional.
