0-6 month old newborns • Skin contact product
For infants (0-6 months): this ingredient is likely low risk in general, but there is limited data for very young babies and their skin absorbs more, so extra caution is wise.
If you decide to use a product that contains safflower oleosomes on a baby under 6 months: only use a small amount, avoid the face/near eyes and mouth, do a patch test on a tiny area and wait 24 hours to check for redness or irritation, do not apply to broken or inflamed skin, and talk with your pediatrician before regular use.
Safety sources note enhanced skin absorption (meaning babies may take in more of the ingredient through skin), limited evidence of skin irritation (European Chemicals Agency), animal studies showing skin or cellular changes at moderate doses (peer-reviewed literature), and mixed/limited evidence related to mutagenicity (Environmental Protection Agency and peer-reviewed studies). Stop use and seek medical advice if you see redness, swelling, blisters, breathing difficulty, or other allergic-type reactions.
