YES - Generally Safe
Danger Score: 1 (Lower is safer)
Quick Answer: Madecassoside is generally considered safe for 5+ year old children when used in topical products. Kids may have different tolerance levels.

ℹ️General Overview

Madecassoside is usually safe for children 5 years and older when put on the skin. It soothes and can help the skin heal. Serious problems are rare.

What to Do

Before using on a child, do a small patch test on the inside of the forearm and wait 24 hours to check for redness or swelling. Use products made for kids or mild formulations, apply a small amount to the area that needs it, and avoid the eye area. Do not use on open or badly broken skin. If the child has eczema or very sensitive skin, check with your pediatrician before use. Keep products out of reach of children and do not let them swallow the product.

⚠️Warnings

Animal and peer-reviewed studies reported biochemical or cellular changes, but only at very high doses far above normal skin use. Because of that research, avoid long-term heavy application over large areas and avoid high-concentration products on children. Stop use and rinse with water if you see any rash, redness, itching, swelling, or breathing changes and contact a doctor for severe reactions. If the child has a known allergy to Centella asiatica or similar plant extracts, do not use. Other potential concerns (cancer, reproductive effects, allergies) were rated low in available data, but watch for any signs of skin allergy.

No Known Risk: For topical use, the available safety summaries and published studies show only low-level concerns (for cancer, immune effects, development, and use limits). Animal studies noted cellular changes only at high doses, and those findings do not clearly apply to normal skin use. Because no concern was rated above low, there are no identified real health risks for children from typical topical use of this ingredient.
