1-2 year old toddlers • Skin contact product
For toddlers (1–2 years) aloe vera leaf juice applied to the skin is usually safe. A few children may get redness or an allergic reaction, but overall risk is low when the product is purified and used as intended.
Before using on a toddler, do a small patch test on the inner forearm and wait 24 hours. Use products labeled purified, decolorized, or low aloin and avoid ones that say "whole leaf" or "aloe latex." Don’t apply to broken skin or large areas for long periods without checking with your pediatrician. Stop use and wash the area if you see redness, swelling, itching, or a rash. Never let your child eat or drink aloe products intended for skin.
Industry safety reviewers recommend limits on concentration and impurities (Cosmetic Ingredient Review). An animal study cited by reviewers showed reproductive effects at moderate oral doses in animals — this is why oral use and ingestion should be avoided for children. Watch for signs of skin allergy (redness, swelling, blisters). Avoid products that contain whole-leaf extracts or aloe latex which may contain aloin (these are more likely to cause irritation).
