0-6 month old newborns • Skin contact product
For infants (0-6 months), sunflower seed extract is generally seen as low risk when used on the skin. Most safety information flags only very low concerns for allergies, cancer, or effects on development. However, babies’ skin is very delicate, so extra care is wise.
If you want to use a product that contains sunflower seed extract on a newborn or baby: use products made for newborn skin, apply sparingly, and first try a small patch on the inner forearm or thigh. Watch that spot for 24–48 hours for any redness, bumps, swelling or irritation. Don’t put the product on broken or inflamed skin, and avoid getting it in the baby’s eyes or mouth. If your baby has eczema, a known seed/nut allergy in the family, or very sensitive skin, check with your pediatrician before using.
Stop use and contact your doctor if you see a rash, swelling, hives, or any breathing trouble after application. The ingredient safety report provided flags only low-level concerns for allergies, cancer, and developmental/reproductive effects — low, but worth noting for infants. Also be careful with products that contain many other ingredients (those may increase the chance of irritation). Keep all skincare out of reach of children and do not allow babies to eat or lick products.
