1-2 year old toddlers • Skin contact product
For toddlers (1–2 years), this ingredient is very low risk when used in creams or lotions on healthy skin.
Choose creams or lotions instead of loose powders. Use a small amount on clean, healthy skin. Keep it away from your toddler’s nose and mouth. Try a small patch the first time and stop if the skin reacts. Follow the product’s directions.
Avoid loose powders or sprays near your toddler’s face to reduce breathing in fine particles (general pediatric advice for all powders). Do not use on broken, very irritated, or weeping skin. Stop use if you see redness, bumps, or itching. An industry safety panel (Cosmetic Ingredient Review) lists safe-use recommendations—follow the product label.
