For toddlers (1-2 years), Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate is a gentle washing ingredient and is generally safe in rinse-off products made for children. It’s considered low risk for long-term health problems.
Use products that are specifically made for babies or toddlers and follow the product directions. Avoid leaving concentrated cleansers on the skin for long periods. Rinse well after use. If you want extra caution, do a small patch test (a drop of the product on the inner forearm) and wait 24 hours before regular use.
Watch for redness, stinging, or watering eyes after use. Reports from ingredient reviewers (Cosmetic Ingredient Review) and the European Chemicals Agency note limited evidence of eye irritation and suggest formulation limits in some products. If the product gets in your child’s eyes, rinse gently with water. Stop use and see your pediatrician if a rash, persistent redness, or swelling appears.
