2-5 year old preschoolers • Skin contact product
For young children (2–5 years old — toddlers and preschoolers), Arachidyl Glucoside is generally low risk when used in normal, low‑amount skin products. It’s a mild cleanser/emulsifier, but rare allergic reactions and mild irritation have been reported.
If you use a product that lists this ingredient: do a small patch test (apply a pea‑size amount to the inside of the forearm and wait 24 hours). Use products made for children when possible, avoid applying to broken skin, and keep products away from the eyes and mouth. If your child has eczema or known skin sensitivities, consider choosing a product without this ingredient.
Watch for redness, itching, rash, swelling, or eye irritation after use — some human case reports linked this ingredient to allergic contact dermatitis (reported in patch testing studies). Ingredient safety reviews also note possible irritation and that it can increase skin absorption of other chemicals. There is limited animal data showing reproductive effects only at higher doses. Also note: some product verification programs restrict use of this ingredient unless manufacturers provide safety data.
