1-2 year old toddlers âĸ Skin contact product
For toddlers (1-2 years old) this eucalyptus leaf extract is usually low risk when used on the skin in normal, child-formulated products. The main concerns are mild skin irritation or, in sensitive children, breathing or eye irritation if a strong product is used near the face.
Use products made for young children and follow the label. Do a small patch test on the inner forearm and wait 24 hours before wider use. Never rub eucalyptus products into the nose, mouth, or chest of a toddler. If using a product that contains eucalyptus, apply it to clothing or lower legs rather than the face. Stop use and wash the area if you see redness, blistering, or feeding or breathing changes, and contact your pediatrician for breathing problems.
Watch for skin redness, rash, or any breathing or coughing after use â reports of mild irritation come from safety reviews by the European Chemicals Agency and the Cosmetic Ingredient Review. Also note that some manufacturers limit how much of this extract can be used in products, so avoid unregulated or concentrated eucalyptus oils and products not intended for young children.
