0-6 month old newborns • Skin contact product
For infants (0-6 months): soy (soybean) seed extract is generally considered low risk in safety reviews, but babies’ skin is very sensitive and some infants can react to soy. Because of that, it’s safer to be cautious with newborns and young babies.
If possible, use products made and labeled for newborns and infants. Don’t apply products with soybean seed extract to a baby under 6 months unless the product is made for babies or your pediatrician recommends it. If your baby or your family has a history of soy allergy or eczema, avoid it. Don’t put it on broken skin. If you’re unsure, ask your pediatrician before trying a new product.
Stop use and contact your baby’s doctor if you see redness, a rash, swelling, hives, or any breathing trouble after applying a product. The caution comes from industry safety reviews (for example, the Cosmetic Ingredient Review) and from product verification programs that place restrictions on use unless manufacturers provide supporting documentation. Watch especially for reactions in infants with known or family history of soy allergy or eczema.
