Is this toddler-safe to use Cedarwood Oil?
ℹ️General Overview
For toddlers (1-2 years old) cedarwood oil is generally low risk when used carefully. It can sometimes irritate skin, eyes, or breathing, and one authority has noted possible harmful effects to body systems, so extra care is wise with young children.
✅What to Do
If you choose to use cedarwood oil on a toddler, dilute it well in a gentle carrier oil (do a small patch test first on the arm), use a small amount, and avoid putting it near the face, eyes, nose, or on broken or irritated skin. Prefer products made for children and follow the maker’s instructions. Stop use if you see redness, swelling, coughing, or breathing changes.
⚠️Warnings
Avoid undiluted (neat) application and keep away from the face and mouth. Watch for skin redness, itching, eye irritation, or any breathing changes. These irritation concerns are based on findings from the European Chemicals Agency and the classification noting possible body-system toxicity from Environment Canada. Also know that some product programs restrict use of cedarwood oil unless manufacturers provide safety evidence.
