1-2 year old toddlers • Skin contact product
For toddlers (1–2 years), Sorbitan Olivate is usually safe. It’s an ingredient that helps moisturizers and wipes spread and feel soft. Most safety information shows low concern for serious problems when used in normal amounts.
Use products that list this ingredient exactly as shown. Do a small patch test on your child’s arm before using a new product all over. Don’t put products with this ingredient on raw or broken skin. If a product is for the face, avoid the eyes and mouth. Choose products from brands that share ingredient information and say how they test safety.
Industry reviewers (Cosmetic Ingredient Review, CIR) note some gaps in data about safe concentration limits, so some product certification programs may restrict its use without extra testing. Watch for redness, swelling, or a rash; stop use and rinse with water if these happen. Avoid prolonged heavy application over large areas of the body for very young children and keep products out of reach to prevent accidental ingestion.
