2-5 year old preschoolers • Skin contact product
For toddlers and preschoolers (ages 2–5), this bark extract appears to be low risk when used on the skin. There is limited specific testing in young children, but larger safety listings mark its concerns as low.
If you want to use a product with this ingredient on your 2–5 year old: apply a small amount to a tiny patch of skin (inner forearm) and wait 24–48 hours to check for redness or rash. Use only small amounts, avoid broken skin, and keep products out of the child’s eyes and mouth. Stop use if you see irritation, swelling, or other signs of allergy.
A public cosmetic ingredient safety listing notes low concerns for cancer, allergies/immune effects, and reproductive/development effects. Even so, plant extracts can cause local irritation or allergic reactions in some children. Watch for redness, itching, swelling, blisters, or breathing changes. If you see any of these, stop use and contact your pediatrician. Do not apply to open cuts or irritated skin.
