For toddlers (1–2 years), chlorophyll applied to the skin is generally low risk when used in normal, diluted amounts. It is considered safe for limited use by food and safety agencies and is not known to build up in the body.
Before using on your child, put a tiny amount on the inside of the forearm and wait 24 hours to check for a reaction. Keep products with chlorophyll away from your child’s mouth and eyes. Use products made for children or simple formulations, and avoid applying to broken or irritated skin.
Although official reviews (for example, U.S. food safety guidance and Environment Canada assessments) list low concerns, watch for any skin redness, itching, or swelling. If your child develops irritation or you see signs of an allergic reaction, stop use and talk to your pediatrician. Also avoid letting toddlers lick or drink liquid forms — products meant for skin may not be safe if swallowed.
