5+ year old children • Skin contact product
For children 5 years and older (school-aged kids), buttermilk powder on the skin is usually low risk. It can help moisturize but may cause a reaction in children with milk/dairy allergy.
If you want to try it, do a patch test: put a small amount on the inside of the forearm and wait 24 hours. Don’t put it on broken, red, or sore skin. If your child has a known milk/dairy allergy, avoid using it on their skin altogether. If any redness, itching, or rash appears, stop use.
Watch for skin redness, hives, swelling, or itching after use. If your child has trouble breathing, seek emergency care right away. These warnings come from public ingredient safety listings and the known risk of dairy allergy — the overall database concern levels are listed as low, but milk allergy can still cause reactions.
