5+ year old children • Skin contact product
For children 5 years and older, cocoglycerides are usually safe on the skin. They are moisturizing ingredients made from coconut fats and are commonly used in lotions and creams for kids and older children.
Use products made for children or from reputable brands. Before widespread use, do a small patch test on the inside of the child’s forearm and wait 24 hours to check for redness or itching. Apply small amounts to intact skin only, and stop use if you see irritation. If your child has a known coconut allergy, avoid this ingredient.
Watch for skin irritation, redness, swelling, or itching—stop use and talk to your child’s doctor if this happens. Industry reviewers (Cosmetic Ingredient Review) note some data gaps about maximum concentrations and impurities, so prefer products formulated for children and avoid products with unclear sourcing or poor labeling. Keep creams away from eyes and mouth.
