2-5 year old preschoolers • Skin contact product
For toddlers and preschoolers (ages 2–5), this ingredient is generally safe. It’s a gentle oat-based skin conditioner and is unlikely to cause harm for most young children.
Before regular use, do a small patch test: apply a tiny amount to the inside of your child’s forearm and wait 24 hours. Use only on unbroken skin. If your child has a known oat allergy or very sensitive skin, choose a product without oat-derived ingredients. Keep creams and lotions away from the eyes and mouth and follow product directions.
The safety listing used for this review notes very low concern for cancer, allergy, reproductive harm and use restrictions. Even so, watch for signs of an allergic reaction — redness, swelling, itching, rash, blisters, or trouble breathing. If you see mild irritation, stop use and rinse; if you see any swelling or breathing problems, get medical help right away. If in doubt, talk to your child’s pediatrician before using a new product.
