1-2 year old toddlers • Skin contact product
For a 1-2 year old (toddler, young child), banana fruit extract is usually safe on the skin. It’s used to soften and soothe skin and the safety listing shows low concern across major health categories.
Before using a product with banana extract on your toddler: do a small patch test on the inside of the arm and wait 24 hours; use only on unbroken skin; choose products made for children or for sensitive skin; avoid the eyes and mouth; if your child has a known banana or fruit allergy, do not use without checking with your pediatrician.
The ingredient safety listing notes low concern for cancer, allergies, developmental effects and use restrictions, but allergic or irritant skin reactions can still happen. Watch for redness, itching, swelling, hives, or any new rash and stop use immediately. If a reaction is severe or spreads, contact your pediatrician. Keep products out of reach of children and avoid putting products with this ingredient inside the nose or mouth.
