✅What to Do
Before using on a child’s skin, do a small patch test: place a tiny amount on the inside of the forearm and wait 24 hours. If there’s no redness or irritation, use only a small amount on a small area at first. Avoid applying to broken, red, or irritated skin, and keep the product away from the child’s eyes and mouth. If you plan to use it often or over large areas, or if your child has eczema or very sensitive skin, ask your pediatrician first.
