For toddlers (1-2 years), this is a gentle cleanser ingredient used in shampoos and body washes. It is considered low risk when used in rinse-off products, but young children's skin can still be sensitive.
Use products that rinse off (baby shampoo, body wash). Rinse skin and hair well after use. If your child has eczema or very sensitive skin, choose a product made for sensitive skin and try a small area first. Stop use and rinse well if you see redness, a rash, or irritation.
Safety reviews (Cosmetic Ingredient Review) note it is allowed with normal use limits but can cause irritation in some people; Environment Canada found no signs it causes systemic harm. Avoid getting the product in eyes or on broken skin, watch for any redness, rash, or persistent irritation, and stop use if those occur. If severe reaction happens, seek medical care.
