2-5 year old preschoolers • Skin contact product
For toddlers and preschoolers (age 2-5 years), soybean extract used on the skin is generally low risk. It’s used to help moisturize and protect the skin and is not linked to major safety problems in normal use.
Before using a new product on your child’s skin, try a small patch test on the inner forearm and wait 24–48 hours to check for redness or swelling. Use products as directed and avoid putting them on broken or very irritated skin. If your child has a known soy allergy, choose products without soy-derived ingredients.
The ingredient’s safety review lists only low-level concerns for cancer, allergy/immune effects, and developmental or reproductive effects, so these are not major risks for children in normal use. The main thing to watch for is an allergic reaction or skin irritation — stop use right away if you see a rash, redness, swelling, itching, hives, or breathing difficulty, and seek medical care if symptoms are severe. Also avoid contact with the eyes and mouth.
