For toddlers (1-2 years) this ingredient is generally low risk but can cause skin allergies in some children. It is not linked to cancer or long-term build-up in the body.
If you plan to use a product that lists this ingredient: 1) Do a patch test on a small area (inner forearm) and wait 24–48 hours for any reaction. 2) Use a small amount and do not put it on broken or very red skin. 3) Avoid products with this ingredient if your child has eczema or has reacted to fragrances before. 4) Stop use immediately and see your pediatrician if you notice redness, swelling, blistering, or breathing trouble.
This ingredient is listed as a human allergen by the EU Cosmetics Directive—watch for signs of contact allergy (redness, itching, rash). Regulatory reviews from Environment Canada and ECHA note low risk for persistence and environmental build-up, and FDA notes limited safe uses in food, but the main practical concern for toddlers is allergic skin reaction. Avoid use near the eyes and mouth and avoid daily use on very sensitive skin unless recommended by your child’s doctor.
