1-2 year old toddlers • Skin contact product
For toddlers (1-2 years), this olive oil–derived ingredient is usually safe to use on the skin and has a low level of concern. It is mainly a skin softener and is not commonly linked to serious harm, but some safety notes list small risks for irritation and some gaps in testing.
Use products with this ingredient sparingly on toddlers. Do a small patch test first (apply a little on the inside of the forearm and wait 24 hours). Avoid putting it on cuts, scrapes, or chapped areas. Keep the product away from the child’s eyes and mouth. If you notice redness, swelling, a rash, or if your child seems uncomfortable, stop using it and ask your pediatrician.
The provided safety listing notes limited evidence of skin, eye, or breathing irritation and mentions some gaps in how safety was tested, plus one lab test showing a mutation result in cells. Because of those notes, avoid heavy, repeated application, avoid use on broken skin, keep products out of reach to prevent swallowing, and watch closely for any irritation. If your child has sensitive skin or a history of allergies, check with your pediatrician before regular use.
