5+ year old children • Skin contact product
For kids 5 years and older (school-age children), this ingredient is generally safe when used on the skin. It has a very low risk for serious long-term problems. The main issue to be aware of is irritation (redness, stinging, or eye/wetness) in some children.
Use products made for children when possible. Before using a new product, do a small patch test on the inside of the forearm and wait 24 hours to check for redness or itching. Don’t apply the product to broken, scratched, or badly irritated skin. Keep creams and lotions away from the eyes and mouth. If your child has asthma or breathing sensitivity, avoid sprays or products that can be inhaled.
Watch for signs of irritation: redness, stinging, swelling, watery eyes, coughing, or breathing trouble. This irritation concern comes from the Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR). If any of these signs appear, stop use and rinse the area; seek medical help if breathing problems or swelling occur. Also be cautious if the product contains strong fragrances or other known irritants, which can increase the chance of a reaction.
