5+ year old children • Skin contact product
For children 5 years and older (school-age children and teens), this ingredient is generally safe to use on the skin. It works as a moisturizer and is not linked to serious health risks in this age group.
Before using a new product on your child, do a small patch test on the inside of the forearm and wait 24–48 hours. Use products as directed and avoid applying to broken or irritated skin. Choose products from reputable brands that list concentrations or safety testing when possible.
Watch for signs of skin allergy such as redness, itching, or swelling. If your child has a known wool or lanolin allergy, avoid this ingredient. Public safety reviews and industry assessments note some data gaps and recommend limits on use concentrations, and some certification programs restrict this ingredient without documented safety data—so prefer products that provide clear safety information. Stop use and seek care if a strong reaction occurs.
