2-5 year old preschoolers • Skin contact product
For toddlers and young children (2–5 years), this plant extract is generally considered low risk for skin use. There are few reports of serious problems, but child-specific testing is limited, so caution is reasonable for preschool-aged children.
If you plan to use a product that lists Schinus Molle Extract on a 2–5 year old: 1) do a small patch test on the child’s inner forearm and wait 24 hours to check for any redness or rash; 2) avoid using it on broken or irritated skin and keep it away from eyes and mouth; 3) choose products made for children or with minimal added fragrance; 4) stop use and wash the area if you see irritation; and 5) check with your child’s pediatrician if your child has a history of plant or pollen allergies.
Watch for signs of an allergic reaction (redness, itching, swelling, blistering, or breathing difficulty) and stop use immediately if these occur. Because this comes from a plant source, some children may develop contact allergy even though overall concern is low. These notes are based on a public cosmetic ingredient safety database that lists low concerns for cancer, allergies, and developmental effects.
