1-2 year old toddlers • Skin contact product
For toddlers and young children (1-2 years), this ingredient is generally low risk when used on normal skin. It helps products form a thin film and, based on government and industry reviews, is not linked to serious health problems.
Use products with this ingredient the same way you would for other lotions or sunscreens: apply to clean, dry skin; avoid broken or red skin; keep creams away from eyes and mouth. Do a small patch test on the inner forearm and wait 24 hours before wider use. If the product is for sun protection, follow the product’s directions for amount and reapplication.
Watch for any redness, swelling, itching, or other skin irritation after use. Stop use and rinse the area if irritation occurs, and contact your child’s healthcare provider if the reaction is severe. Note that some safety programs require manufacturers to show evidence that this ingredient is safe in their products; if you prefer, choose products from brands that provide clear safety information.
