5+ year old children • Skin contact product
For children 5 years and up (school-age kids, older children and teens), lavender flower extract is generally safe on the skin. Most concerns listed for this ingredient are low. The biggest thing to watch for is mild skin irritation or an allergic reaction.
Before using a new product with lavender extract, do a small patch test on the child's inner forearm and wait 24 hours. Use products made for children when possible and follow the label directions. Don’t apply it to broken or irritated skin, and keep it away from eyes and mouth. Avoid using concentrated lavender oil undiluted on a child.
Stop use and rinse with water if you see redness, swelling, itching, blisters, or any unusual reaction. If severe or spreading, contact your pediatrician. Also note that the ingredient’s safety listing includes a note about product use restrictions (some certification programs may limit use unless manufacturers provide extra safety data), so you may find it excluded from certain verified baby products.
