5+ year old children • Skin contact product
For kids aged 5 and up (school-age children, older children, and teens), calendula flower used on the skin is very low risk and often used to calm dry or irritated skin.
Before using widely, do a small patch test on the inside of your child’s forearm and wait 24 hours to check for redness or itching. Use products labeled for children when possible, follow the product directions, and avoid putting the product on deep cuts or serious burns. If your child has a known allergy to plants in the daisy or ragweed family (like chamomile), avoid calendula.
Watch for signs of an allergic reaction — redness, rash, swelling, itching, or breathing problems. If those appear, stop use and see a doctor. Safety notes come from U.S. Food and Drug Administration guidance and Cosmetic Ingredient Review information that report only low-level concerns; still, individual allergic reactions can occur.
