2-5 year old preschoolers • Skin contact product
For children aged 2-5 years (toddlers and young kids), willow herb extract is generally safe to use on the skin. Ingredient safety lists rate it low for cancer risk, allergic problems, and effects on growth or reproduction. Still, research in small children is limited.
Use a product made for children or a gentle adult product. Do a small patch test on the inside of the arm and wait 24 hours before wider use. Apply a small amount only to intact (not broken) skin. Avoid the eyes and mouth. If your child has very sensitive skin or a lot of eczema, check with your pediatrician first.
Watch for redness, itching, swelling, bumps or a rash. If any of those happen, stop use and rinse the skin with water. Seek medical care if the reaction is severe. These cautions come from widely used ingredient safety listings that flag this extract as low concern overall but note limited child-specific data.
