1-2 year old toddlers • Skin contact product
For toddlers (1–2 years), this conditioning ingredient is generally safe when used in shampoos and washes. Public safety listings rate long-term health risks as low. The most likely issue is mild skin irritation or a rare allergy.
Use products made for toddlers or gentle baby lines, rinse well, and avoid leaving rinse-off products on the skin. Do a small patch test on the inner forearm before first use. Use a small amount, keep products away from the eyes and mouth, and keep containers up and away from little hands to prevent swallowing.
Watch for redness, rash, itching, swelling, or breathing problems — stop use and see a doctor if these occur. Avoid using on open or broken skin. These precautions come from the public ingredient safety listings reviewed for this evaluation, which report low concerns overall but do note the possibility of contact sensitivity.
