1-2 year old toddlers • Skin contact product
For toddlers (1-2 years old), decyl cocoate is considered safe for use on the skin in normal amounts. It acts as a skin softener and is not linked to serious long-term harms. There is a small chance of irritation for sensitive skin.
Use products made for young children or labeled for sensitive skin. Before using a new product, do a small patch test on the inner forearm and wait 24 hours to check for redness or irritation. Avoid applying to broken or irritated skin, and keep away from the eyes and mouth. If your child develops a rash, stop use and rinse the area; seek medical advice if it gets worse.
The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) notes that decyl cocoate is generally safe but can be subject to concentration or product-type limits and that irritation is possible. Watch for redness, itching, swelling, or eye irritation. If you see any of these signs, stop using the product and consult your pediatrician. For infants younger than 6 months, follow your pediatrician’s guidance before introducing new topical products.
