1-2 year old toddlers • Skin contact product
For toddlers (1-2 years) this black currant bud extract is likely low risk when used on the skin in small amounts. Most safety flags are low, but some regulatory notes say it can slightly irritate skin or help other ingredients get into the skin.
If you try a product with this ingredient on your toddler: use a small amount at first, pick products made for young children or sensitive skin, avoid putting it near the eyes or mouth, do a small patch test on the arm and wait 24 hours, and stop use if you see redness, rash, swelling, or any breathing changes. Prefer products with low concentrations and avoid use on broken or inflamed skin.
The safety notes come from regulatory data (European Chemicals Agency) that mention limited evidence of organ toxicity, irritation, and that the ingredient can act as a penetration enhancer. Because of that, avoid using it on broken skin, do not mix multiple active products on the same area, and watch for any signs of irritation or allergic reaction. If irritation occurs, rinse the area and stop use; seek medical advice if severe or if breathing is affected.
