✅What to Do
Before using a new product on your child’s skin, do a small patch test on the inside of the forearm and watch for 24–48 hours. Choose products made for children when possible and avoid using it on broken or inflamed skin. If you see redness, itching, swelling, or blisters, stop use and wash the area. If symptoms are severe or don’t get better, contact your pediatrician.
⚠️Warnings
Safety reviewers (Cosmetic Ingredient Review) report strong evidence that this plant extract can be a skin allergen for some people; also there are use limits noted and limited toxicity information when used as a food additive (U.S. Food and Drug Administration). Avoid if your child has known allergies to ragweed or other plants in the same family. Do not use near the eyes or mouth. Keep an eye out for any new rash, itching, or swelling after first uses.
