2-5 year old preschoolers • Skin contact product
For children aged 2–5 years (toddlers, preschoolers), meadowsweet flower extract used on the skin appears to be very low risk. It’s usually added to products to help calm and soothe the skin.
If you want to use a product with this ingredient on a 2–5 year old: choose products made for children, do a small patch test on the inner forearm and wait 24 hours to check for irritation, use a small amount, and avoid applying to broken or very irritated skin. If the product is near the eyes, keep it away from the eye area.
Although the public ingredient safety database lists only low concerns for cancer, allergies, and reproductive effects, allergic skin reactions can still happen. Stop use and rinse if you see redness, swelling, hives, or blistering and contact your child’s pediatrician if the reaction is serious. Do not apply to open wounds or severe eczema. The source of these safety notes is the public ingredient safety database used to compile the ingredient profile.
