2-5 year old preschoolers • Skin contact product
For toddlers and preschoolers (2-5 years), banana fruit extract is usually safe on the skin. It is used to soften and condition skin and shows only low-level safety concerns in ingredient reports.
Before using a new product on your child, put a small amount on the inside of the forearm and wait 24 hours to check for a reaction. Use only as directed, avoid putting it on cuts or sore skin, keep it away from the child’s mouth and eyes, and do not let young children eat cosmetic products.
Watch for signs of an allergic reaction such as redness, itching, hive-like bumps, swelling, or trouble breathing. The ingredient safety report notes low overall concerns, but allergies are still possible—especially if your child is already allergic to bananas. If you see a severe reaction or breathing problems, stop use and seek medical help right away. If your child has a known banana allergy, avoid products with this extract.
