5+ year old children • Skin contact product
For children 5 years and older (school-age kids and tweens), melon fruit extract used on the skin is generally low risk. It’s a plant extract commonly used for scent or skin benefits and is not linked to serious harm in the safety data.
When you try a product with melon fruit extract on your child: choose products made for kids when possible, do a small patch test on the child’s inner forearm and wait 24 hours, start with a small amount, avoid putting it near the eyes or mouth, and stop use if you see redness, itching, swelling, or a rash. If your child has a known food allergy to melons, avoid products with this extract or talk with your child’s pediatrician first.
Watch for skin reactions (redness, itching, rash) — the ingredient safety database lists low-level allergy and irritation concern, which means reactions are uncommon but possible. Don’t apply to broken or irritated skin. If there’s a known melon or pollen-related allergy in your child, avoid this ingredient. If a reaction happens, wash the area, stop use, and seek medical advice if it’s severe.
