5+ year old children • Skin contact product
For children 5 years and older (school-age kids), this ingredient is low risk. It helps mix oil and water in creams and is usually well tolerated.
Use products made for children or gentle skin products. Do a small patch test on the inner forearm before regular use. Avoid getting the product in the child's eyes and do not apply to raw or broken skin. If your child has very sensitive skin or eczema, choose extra-gentle formulations and check with your pediatrician if unsure.
There is a recorded concern about possible irritation to skin, eyes, or lungs from the Cosmetic Ingredient Review — watch for redness, stinging, swelling, or breathing trouble. If you see any of these signs, stop use and rinse the area; contact your doctor for severe reactions. Also note that some product verification programs require extra safety information from makers before allowing this ingredient in verified products, which means manufacturers may need to show more safety data.
