2-5 year old preschoolers • Skin contact product
For toddlers and preschoolers (2–5 years), Blue 1 is generally considered low risk when used on the skin. Most safety data show few health concerns, but a small number of children may be sensitive.
Before using a new product with Blue 1, do a patch test: put a small amount on the inside of your child’s forearm and wait 24 hours. Use sparingly, avoid the eyes and mouth, and don’t put it on cuts or raw skin. Choose products made for kids when possible. If any redness, swelling, itching, or rash appears, stop use and wash the area; contact your child’s pediatrician if the reaction is more than mild.
Watch for signs of skin reaction (redness, itching, hives, swelling). Keep products containing dyes out of reach to avoid accidental eating. These warnings are based on the ingredient safety information provided, which shows low overall concerns but notes allergic or irritant reactions can occur in sensitive individuals.
