5+ year old children • Skin contact product
For kids aged 5 and older (children, school-age kids), hydrolyzed quinoa protein is usually safe when used in skin products at normal amounts. It’s a gentle, plant-based skin conditioner and most children won’t have problems.
Before regular use, do a small patch test: put a tiny amount on the inside of your child’s forearm or behind the ear and wait 24 hours to check for redness, itching, or rash. Use products made for children when possible, avoid applying to broken or irritated skin, and stop use if your child develops any irritation. If your child has known grain or seed allergies, check with your pediatrician first.
There are a few findings from peer-reviewed animal studies that showed changes only at very high doses (biochemical or circulatory effects); these are not from normal topical use but are the reason for extra caution. Also watch for allergic reactions (redness, swelling, itching) — though allergy risk is listed as low, any new skin ingredient can cause sensitivity in some kids. If you see persistent irritation or any signs of an allergic reaction, rinse the area, stop using the product, and contact your child’s healthcare provider.
