ℹ️General Overview
Dandelion extract is generally safe for children 5 years and older when used on the skin. It’s commonly added to kid-friendly shampoos and body washes for its gentle, calming and antioxidant effects. Most safety checks mark its risks as low.
✅What to Do
Use products made for children or rinse-off products (like shampoo and body wash) that include dandelion extract. Before full use, do a small patch test on your child’s inner forearm and wait 24 hours to check for any redness or itching. Don’t put products with this extract on broken or irritated skin, and avoid contact with eyes and mouth. If your child has a known allergy to ragweed, daisies, or other members of the same plant family, talk to your pediatrician before use.
⚠️Warnings
Watch for skin redness, itching, swelling or rash after use — these would be signs of a contact allergy. The ingredient’s safety record lists a low allergy concern, so reactions are uncommon but possible, especially in children with plant allergies. If any irritation appears, stop use and rinse the area, and seek medical advice if it gets worse. Avoid applying to open cuts or sores and prevent ingestion of concentrated extracts.
