✅What to Do
If you use a product that lists Cocamide MIPA on a 1–2 year old: prefer rinse-off products (shampoos, body wash) rather than leave-on creams. Do a small patch test first on the inner forearm and wait 24 hours. Stop use if you see redness, rash, stinging, or your child coughs or has trouble breathing. Avoid using products with this ingredient on broken or very dry skin. If your child has eczema or very sensitive skin, choose products formulated for sensitive skin that do not include this ingredient.

Safety reviews by an industry expert panel note possible skin/eye/lung irritation and that use can be limited by how products are formulated (Cosmetic Ingredient Review). Also, some product certification programs restrict this ingredient unless manufacturers provide safety documentation. Watch for redness, stinging, rash, or breathing changes after use and discontinue immediately if they occur.
