1-2 year old toddlers • Skin contact product
For toddlers (1–2 years), common yarrow is usually low risk when used in small amounts in products made for children. It is not generally linked to serious harms, but plant extracts can sometimes cause skin reactions in sensitive kids.
Choose products made for toddlers and avoid formulas that list concentrated yarrow oil or very high extract amounts. Do a small patch test on the child’s inner forearm and wait 24 hours before wider use. If your child has sensitive skin or a history of plant allergies, skip products with yarrow. Keep products away from eyes, mouth, and broken skin.
Stop use and rinse if you see redness, swelling, itching, bumps, or any rash. Don’t use on open cuts or irritated skin. The safety reviewers noted limited data and require concentration limits for safe use (Cosmetic Ingredient Review), so avoid high-strength yarrow extracts or essential oils in toddler products. If a reaction is severe or you’re unsure, contact your pediatrician.
