2-5 year old preschoolers • Skin contact product
For children ages 2–5 (toddlers and preschoolers), marjoram extract applied to the skin is generally low risk. Safety listings mark cancer, allergy and developmental concerns as low. A small number of sensitive children might get mild skin irritation.
If you plan to use a product with this ingredient on a 2–5 year old: use only small amounts on healthy, unbroken skin; do a patch test first (apply a tiny bit on the inside of the forearm and wait 24 hours); avoid the face, eyes and mouth; choose products made for children when possible; stop use if you see redness, swelling, or itching and consult your child’s doctor for anything that looks serious.
Watch for rash, redness, swelling, blistering, or breathing changes — stop use immediately and seek medical care for severe reactions. The provided safety listing also notes that this ingredient is restricted in verified product programs and requires manufacturer substantiation before use in some certified products; that means some brands choose not to include it without proof of safety. If your child has known plant or herb allergies, avoid use and check with your pediatrician.
