5+ year old children • Skin contact product
For school-age kids (5 years and up), chamomile flower extract used on the skin is usually safe and is often included to calm or soothe skin. Most safety reviews find only low-level concerns overall.
Before regular use, do a small patch test on your child's inner forearm and wait 24 hours. Use products made for children or labelled for sensitive skin, follow the product directions, and avoid using on broken or very irritated skin. If your child has a known ragweed or plant allergy, avoid it or check with your child’s doctor first.
Stop use and wash the area if you see redness, itching, swelling, blisters, or any breathing trouble — these are signs of an allergic reaction (based on safety reports from the European Chemicals Agency and cosmetic safety reviewers). Some programs that verify product safety may restrict this ingredient unless makers provide extra safety data, so ingredients may be limited in certain verified lines (noting that there are a few case reports raising unclear questions about nervous-system or pregnancy effects, but the evidence is weak and not consistent).
