5+ year old children • Skin contact product
For children 5 years and older (kids, school-age children, and teens), this mushroom stem extract is generally low risk when used on the skin. It’s often added for soothing or antioxidant benefits and the main safety checks show low concern.
If you plan to use a product that contains this ingredient on a child: use products made for children when possible; do a small patch test on a clean area of skin (inside forearm) and wait 24 hours to check for redness or itching; avoid applying to cuts, scrapes, or irritated skin; follow product instructions for amount and frequency; stop use and wash the area if the child develops redness, swelling, blistering, or persistent irritation; keep all personal care products out of reach of children.
Watch for skin reactions. A reputable ingredient database notes a low risk of allergic reactions, but plant extracts can still cause irritation or allergy in some people. Avoid use on broken skin and avoid getting the product in the child’s eyes or mouth. If the child has a known mushroom allergy or very sensitive skin, avoid products with this extract and speak with your pediatrician before use.
