5+ year old children • Skin contact product
For children 5 years and older, this ingredient is generally low risk when put on the skin. It acts like a light moisturizing oil and is not known to cause serious long-term harms.
Before using a new product on your child, try a small patch test on the inside of the forearm and wait 24 hours. Use the product as directed and avoid putting it on broken or very red skin. If the product is in a spray form, do not spray near the child’s face and avoid breathing in the mist.
The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) notes some data gaps and possible irritation to skin, eyes, or lungs. Watch for redness, itching, swelling, stinging, or any breathing difficulty after use. If you see a rash or breathing problems, stop use and seek medical advice. Because the irritation information is not fully settled, take the simple steps above to reduce risk.
