5+ year old children • Skin contact product
For school-age children (5 years and older), lavender flower extract used on the skin is generally safe and low risk. It’s often used for scent or a gentle calming effect.
Before using a new product, do a small patch test on the inside of the arm and wait 24 hours. Use products made for skin (not undiluted essential oil), avoid getting it in the eyes, and do not apply to broken or irritated skin. If your child has eczema or a known fragrance allergy, choose fragrance-free products instead.
The provided ingredient listing flags a 'restricted' status for some certified products—this is a manufacturing/labeling note, not a safety ban. Watch for signs of skin allergy (redness, itching, swelling) and stop use if they appear. If your child has trouble breathing or severe swelling after use, get medical help right away. If the product contains concentrated essential oil rather than a diluted extract, avoid use on children.
