Safe for preschoolers to use Achillea Millefolium?
ℹ️General Overview
For toddlers and young children (2–5 years), common yarrow used on the skin is generally low risk. Most concerns are small, but some children can have sensitive skin or an allergic reaction.
✅What to Do
If you use a product that contains yarrow on a child aged 2–5 years: choose products made for children or gentle skin products, avoid applying to broken or irritated skin, do a small patch test on the arm and wait 24–48 hours before wider use, and stop use if you see redness, swelling, itching or blisters. Use sparingly and keep products away from the eyes and mouth.
⚠️Warnings
Watch for signs of skin allergy or irritation (redness, itching, swelling, blistering). If these happen, stop use and contact your child’s pediatrician. Note: a review by the Cosmetic Ingredient Review flagged limited data and recommends use limits—this is the source of the main caution.
