1-2 year old toddlers • Skin contact product
For a toddler (1-2 years old): macadamia seed oil is generally safe and gentle as a skin moisturizer. It’s used to soften and protect the skin and is unlikely to cause harm in children who don’t have a nut allergy.
Do a small patch test first: put a tiny amount on the inside of the wrist or inner arm and watch for 24–48 hours. Use only a small amount on clean skin, avoid broken or very red skin, and don’t get it in the eyes or mouth. Choose products with few extra ingredients. If your child has a known tree‑nut allergy, talk with your pediatrician before using it.
Avoid if your child has a known macadamia or tree‑nut allergy — check with your child’s doctor. Watch for signs of a reaction (redness, swelling, itching, rash) after the patch test or after first uses. The recommendation to pay attention to manufacturing and purity comes from industry safety reviews (Cosmetic Ingredient Review), which note those factors when giving guidance. If you see a worrying reaction, stop use and contact your pediatrician right away.
