5+ year old children • Skin contact product
For children 5 years and older (school-age kids and teens), calendula seed oil applied to the skin is generally safe and often used to soothe dry or irritated skin.
Before regular use, do a small patch test on the inside of the forearm and wait 24–48 hours. Choose products made for children or labeled for sensitive skin. Don’t put it on open cuts or severe rashes without checking with your pediatrician. If your child has a known allergy to daisies, marigolds, or plants in that family, avoid calendula.
Watch for any redness, itching, swelling, hives, or other signs of skin reaction and stop use immediately if they happen. An ingredient review has recommended attention to concentration and purity in products, so buy from reputable brands and follow label directions (source: Cosmetic Ingredient Review). If you see a concerning reaction, contact your child’s doctor.
