2-5 year old preschoolers ⢠Skin contact product
For children ages 2ā5 (toddlers and preschoolers), this ingredient looks low risk for cancer, allergies, and effects on development based on ingredient listings, but it is also subject to regulatory restrictions. Because there is little child-specific testing and it is restricted in some cosmetic rules, it's safer to avoid regular use on young children when possible.
If you see this on a product label for a child, choose a different product without it when you can. If the product is already in use, stop and rinse the area with water if you notice any redness, itchiness, or other irritation. Keep products containing this ingredient out of reach and do not use on broken skin. Talk with your pediatrician if your child has sensitive skin or a history of reactions.
Regulatory listings note use restrictions (for example under the EU Cosmetics Directive) and some verified product programs restrict or disallow this ingredient ā that is the main reason for caution. Watch for skin irritation, redness, swelling, or any new rash after use and stop use immediately if these occur. Because pediatric-specific safety data are limited, avoid routine use in children under 6 and prefer products labelled for kids or known gentle alternatives.
