2-5 year old preschoolers • Skin contact product
For toddlers and preschoolers (2–5 years), saponified olive oil is a gentle, soap-like ingredient made from olive oil. It is commonly used in baby and kids’ shampoos and washes and is considered low risk for serious health problems.
Use products with this ingredient as intended (usually rinse-off bath and shampoo products). Do a small patch test on your child’s inner arm the first time you use a new product and wait 24 hours to check for redness or rash. Rinse well if the product gets into eyes. Use only as directed and keep products out of reach so young children don’t swallow them.
Watch for skin redness, rash, itching, or swelling — these signs mean your child may be sensitive or allergic and you should stop use and talk with your child’s doctor. Avoid using on deep or serious open wounds. These recommendations come from public ingredient safety assessments and standard pediatric skin-safety guidance.
