5+ year old children • Skin contact product
For children aged 5 and up, lauryl glucoside is generally a gentle, low-risk cleanser used in rinsing products like shampoos and body washes. Most kids tolerate it well.
Prefer rinse-off products (shampoo, body wash) that list lauryl glucoside. If your child has sensitive skin or eczema, choose fragrance-free, gentle formulas and do a small patch test on the inner forearm first. Rinse thoroughly if it gets in the eyes. If you see redness, itch, or a rash, stop use and talk to your pediatrician or dermatologist.
Watch for mild irritation or rare allergic skin reactions reported in human case studies (see sources: patch testing and allergic contact dermatitis reports). Safety reviewers have set concentration/use limits for cosmetics (see: Cosmetic Ingredient Review). Some older animal studies showed reproductive effects only at much higher exposures than normal product use (see: Ecology and Toxicology of Alkyl Polyglycosides). If your child develops a skin reaction, discontinue the product and seek medical advice.
