2-5 year old preschoolers • Skin contact product
For children ages 2-5 (toddlers and preschoolers), rosehip (Rosa Canina) fruit extract is usually safe in normal amounts found in consumer skin products. It is commonly used to soothe skin and provide gentle antioxidant benefits. The chance of problems is low.
Use products made for children or gentle adult formulas. Do a small patch test on the inside of the forearm and wait 24–48 hours before regular use. Avoid using undiluted rosehip extract or homemade concentrated mixes on a child’s skin. Keep products away from the eyes and mouth. If you see redness, itching, swelling or any breathing trouble, stop use and talk with your child’s doctor.
Safety reviews (Cosmetic Ingredient Review) note a low risk of skin or eye irritation and a low risk of allergic reactions, and that safety depends on product concentration. Watch for rashes, stinging, puffiness, or eye irritation. If a product lists a very high concentration of rosehip extract or is meant to be applied to broken skin, avoid using it on young children. If any worrying reaction occurs, stop use and contact your pediatrician.
