5+ year old children • Skin contact product
For children 5 years and older (kids, school-age children, preteens), meadowsweet flower extract is generally safe to use on the skin. Major safety listings show low concern for cancer, allergies, and effects on growth or reproduction.
Use products that list this ingredient as directed. Before putting a new product on your child’s face or large areas, do a small patch test on the inside of the forearm and wait 24 hours to check for redness or itching. Avoid using it on broken, red or irritated skin. If your child has a known sensitivity to plant extracts or to aspirin-type compounds, choose products without meadowsweet.
Watch for signs of an allergic reaction — redness, itching, swelling, hives, or worsening rash. If that happens, stop use and see your pediatrician. Also avoid if your child has a known aspirin sensitivity or salicylate allergy, since meadowsweet can contain salicylate-like compounds. These cautions come from public cosmetic ingredient safety listings and common clinical guidance on plant extracts.
