Use products with this ingredient as directed. For leave-on products, use small amounts and avoid broken or irritated skin. For new products, do a small patch test on the inner forearm and wait 24 hours to check for a reaction. Keep products away from the eyes and mouth. If your child has sensitive skin or a history of allergies, try a product formulated for kids or consult your pediatrician.
The ingredient record notes a use restriction in some verified product standards that requires extra documentation — this is about product substantiation, not a sign of high danger. Stop use and talk to your child’s doctor if you see redness, swelling, rash, blistering, or breathing changes after applying the product. Avoid using on open wounds or severe eczema. These cautions come from the provided ingredient safety listing and standard pediatric care advice.
