1-2 year old toddlers • Skin contact product
For toddlers (1-2 years), this ingredient is generally low risk when used on the skin. It is a thickener and is not known to cause serious problems, but young children's skin is still sensitive.
Use products made for toddlers or young children when possible; do a small patch test on the arm and wait 24 hours before regular use; avoid applying on broken, red or irritated skin; keep products away from eyes and mouth; if any rash, swelling, or irritation appears, stop use and wash the area with water and talk with your child’s healthcare provider if it continues.
A public cosmetics safety listing flags a restriction: some product verification programs do not allow this ingredient unless the maker can provide extra documentation. An industry review group (CIR) also notes recommendations about safe concentrations and manufacturing impurities. Those are not a sign of common harm, but they mean manufacturers may be asked to limit how this ingredient is made or used. Watch for signs of skin irritation, allergic reaction (redness, hives, swelling), and do not use on broken skin. If you have concerns about a specific product, check the maker’s safety information or choose products labeled for toddlers or sensitive skin.
