For toddlers (1-2 years) safflower oleosomes are likely safe when used in normal amounts in creams or lotions. They come from safflower and act like a gentle moisturizer. Most children will not have problems, but a small number can get skin irritation.
Before using a new product with this ingredient on your toddler, try a small patch test on the inner forearm and wait 24 hours. Avoid applying it to cuts, scrapes, or sore skin. Use products made for children or those that list simple ingredients. If the product is fragranced or contains other active ingredients, be extra cautious and test first.
There is limited evidence from the European Chemicals Agency that this ingredient can cause irritation in some people, and some lab/animal studies (peer‑reviewed) showed skin changes at higher exposures. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency indicates it is unlikely to cause genetic damage. Watch for redness, swelling, itching, blisters, or any breathing trouble after use. If you see these signs, stop use and contact your pediatrician. Keep products out of reach to prevent chewing or swallowing.
