Quick Answer: Pimpinella Anisum Seed Extract is generally considered safe for 5+ year old children when used in topical products. Kids may have different tolerance levels.

ℹ️General Overview

For children 5 years and older this anise seed extract is probably OK for most kids when used on the skin, but some children can have allergic or skin reactions. It is more likely to cause problems in kids who have sensitive skin, eczema, asthma, or known allergies to anise or related plants.

✅What to Do

Before regular use, do a small patch test: put a little product on the inside of the child’s forearm and wait 24–48 hours. If there is no redness, swelling, itching or rash, it is less likely to cause a reaction. Use sparingly at first, avoid applying to broken skin, rashes, or near the eyes and mouth. If your child has eczema, asthma, or known plant/seed allergies, check with your pediatrician before use.

⚠️Warnings

Regulatory sources note this ingredient can be a human allergen and there is limited evidence of skin reactions (listed by the EU Cosmetics Directive and the European Chemicals Agency). It is also restricted in some verified product programs. Avoid if your child has known allergy to anise, fennel, or similar plants. Stop use and see a doctor if you notice redness, swelling, blisters, breathing problems, or any other allergic signs after use.
