1-2 year old toddlers • Skin contact product
For toddlers (1-2 years): this ingredient is commonly used in creams and lotions and is usually low risk. The main practical issues are possible skin or eye irritation and concerns about impurities left from manufacturing.
Use products with this ingredient sparingly on toddlers. Prefer mild, fragrance-free formulas made for sensitive skin or for children. Do a small patch test on the inner forearm and wait 24 hours before applying more widely. Avoid applying to broken, red, or sore skin. If the product is a spray or aerosol, avoid spraying near your child’s face and do not let them inhale it. When possible choose rinse-off products (like bath products) over unknown leave-on products. Pick well-known brands that do impurity testing or provide safety/quality information on their products.
Watch for signs of skin irritation (redness, rash, swelling, blisters), eye stinging, or any breathing difficulty. Stop use and rinse the area if irritation appears; seek medical care if your child has trouble breathing or swelling. The caution about contamination comes from safety reviewers and ingredient contamination notes that list possible impurities such as methacrylic acid, acrylic acid, and benzene, and reviewers also note data gaps and recommended limits (source: Cosmetic Ingredient Review and ingredient contamination information). Because of those contamination concerns, avoid unknown or cheap products, and avoid sprays that can be inhaled.
