2-5 year old preschoolers • Skin contact product
For toddlers and young children (2-5 years), galbanum oil is generally low risk when used in small amounts and properly diluted in a product. Because it is an essential oil, it can still cause skin irritation or allergic reactions in some children, so extra caution is wise.
Only use products that already contain galbanum oil in a diluted form made for skin. Do a small patch test on the inner forearm and wait 24 hours before wider use. Never apply undiluted oil directly to a child's skin. Avoid the face, eyes, mouth, and broken skin. Stop use and wash the area if you see redness, rash, swelling, or if the child develops breathing changes.
The provided ingredient data lists low-level concerns, but parents should still avoid undiluted application and keep any essential oil away from a child's face and hands (to prevent rubbing into eyes or putting in the mouth). Watch for signs of skin sensitivity (redness, hives, blistering), swelling, coughing or breathing difficulty; seek medical care right away for breathing problems or severe reactions. Also keep all essential oil products locked away out of reach to prevent accidental ingestion.
