If you want to use a product with this ingredient on your child, choose products made for kids or labeled for sensitive skin. Do a small patch test on the inner forearm and wait 24 hours before wider use. Use products in low concentrations and avoid applying near the eyes, nose, or mouth. Stop use if you see redness, rash, swelling, or any breathing changes and contact your pediatrician.
Watch for skin redness, itching, rash, swelling, or breathing difficulty — these are signs of an allergic reaction. The ingredient's safety listing notes low-level allergy concerns and that some product certification programs restrict its use without extra safety data, so avoid high-strength lavender oils or undiluted extracts and do not apply to broken or irritated skin.
