2-5 year old preschoolers • Skin contact product
For toddlers and preschoolers (2–5 years), this orange peel oil is generally low risk but can make skin more sensitive to sunlight. It is not one of the higher concern ingredients for cancer or development, but it does have rules from industry groups because of sun sensitivity.
If you choose to use a product with this oil on a child aged 2–5: use only a small, well-diluted amount; do a patch test on a small area first; do not apply before going outside in strong sunlight; keep it off broken, red, or irritated skin; and prefer fragrance-free or specifically child-safe products for regular use.
Watch for redness, rash, or stinging. Avoid using this oil on a child right before outdoor play or sun exposure because of phototoxicity (this warning comes from fragrance industry guidance and product use restrictions). Some product verification programs also restrict this ingredient unless makers can show safe use, so check product labels and manufacturer guidance.
