ℹ️General Overview

For 2–5 year olds (toddlers, preschoolers): this chamomile flower extract is usually low risk on the skin when used in small amounts, but some children can get a skin allergy, especially if they are allergic to daisies or ragweed.

What to Do

Before using a new product on your child, put a small amount on the inside of the forearm and wait 24–48 hours to check for redness or itching. Use only on unbroken skin, avoid the eyes and mouth, choose products that list low concentrations or are made for sensitive skin, and stop use if any irritation appears. If your child has a known allergy to daisies/ragweed (Asteraceae), avoid products with this ingredient.

⚠️Warnings

Watch for rash, redness, swelling, itching, hives or breathing trouble — if any of these happen, stop use and seek medical care. These precautions come from regulatory and cosmetic safety reviews (Cosmetic Ingredient Review; European Chemicals Agency) that note limited evidence of skin allergy, and from small human case reports that raised but did not confirm possible neurological or developmental concerns.
