5+ year old children • Skin contact product
For children aged 5 years and older (kids, school-age children), this ingredient is usually safe when used on the skin in rinse-off products like shampoo and body wash. The ingredient itself is not tied to cancer or long-term development harm in this age group, but safety notes show possible irritation and possible manufacturing contamination.
Use products with this ingredient as directed, and stick to rinse-off products when possible. Avoid using products with this ingredient on broken or badly irritated skin. Keep product out of the child's eyes, and rinse well if contact occurs. If your child has sensitive skin, do a small patch test on the forearm first. Prefer products from reputable brands or those that state they test for contaminants.
The safety listing flags contamination risks (methacrylic acid, acrylic acid, benzene) and some gaps in safety data, and it also notes possible irritation to skin, eyes, or lungs. Some product-certification programs may restrict use of this ingredient unless manufacturers provide extra safety data. While finished products usually control these risks, watch for: strong or unusual odors, redness, stinging, rash, or eye irritation. If any of these occur, stop use, rinse the area with water, and seek medical advice for severe or persistent symptoms.
