✅What to Do
Before using a new product with this oil on your child, try a small patch: put a little on the inside of the wrist or elbow and watch for 24–48 hours. Use the product as directed, keep it away from eyes and mouth, and do not apply it to deep cuts or infected skin. If the product contains added fragrances or essential oils, be extra cautious and test first.
⚠️Warnings
Watch for any rash, redness, itching, swelling, or other irritation and stop use if these happen. Safety reviewers note some gaps in ingredient-level testing and that manufacturers may set limits on how much of this oil is used in products (Cosmetic Ingredient Review and a 2017 study are the sources for these findings). If your child has a known plant oil allergy or sensitive skin, check product labels and talk with your pediatrician before regular use. Avoid ingestion and keep products out of reach.
