1-2 year old toddlers • Skin contact product
For toddlers and young children (1-2 years), this plant root extract in skin products is very unlikely to cause harm when used as directed. Public safety listings show only low concerns.
Use products made for kids or gentle formulas, follow the product directions, and do a small patch test: put a little on the inside of the lower arm and wait 24 hours to make sure there is no redness, swelling, or rash. Use a thin layer, avoid broken skin, and keep it away from eyes and mouth. If your child has eczema or very sensitive skin, check with your pediatrician before regular use.
A public cosmetic ingredient safety database notes only low-level concerns for cancer, allergy, and reproductive effects for this ingredient, so these are not high risks. Still, stop use and call your doctor if you see any redness, swelling, hives, blistering, or signs of breathing trouble after use. Avoid using on open wounds or severe rashes, and avoid combining with many other active skin ingredients unless advised by a healthcare provider.
