For children 2–5 years old (toddlers, preschoolers): Ethylene Brassylate is a fragrance ingredient that is generally considered low risk when used in small amounts in finished skin products. Most reviews find low concern for cancer or developmental harm.
If you use a product with this ingredient on a child, apply only a small amount to intact skin, avoid the face and hands near the mouth, and choose products made for children when possible. Do a small patch test first (apply a tiny amount to the inner forearm and watch for 24–48 hours). Stop use and rinse if you see redness, itching, bumps, or swelling.
Watch for skin reactions or irritation — fragrances can cause sensitivity in some children. Regulatory sources that reviewed this ingredient include the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (listed for limited safe uses) and Environment Canada (not expected to be toxic). Keep all fragranced products out of reach to prevent accidental ingestion, and avoid applying to broken or irritated skin.
