5+ year old children • Skin contact product
For children aged 5 and up (kids, school-age children, tweens, teens), this ingredient is usually low risk. It’s a plant-derived soap-like ingredient used to make products foam. Scientific reviews and regulatory assessments report only small risks for irritation or allergy.
Prefer rinse-off products (like shampoos or body washes) that list this ingredient. If using a leave-on product that contains it, choose ones made for children and use sparingly. Do a small patch test on the arm first. Rinse well if it gets in the eyes. If your child has eczema or very sensitive skin, ask your pediatrician before regular use.
Watch for redness, rash, stinging, watering eyes, coughing or breathing trouble after use — these irritation or allergy concerns come from scientific reviews and assessments by the European Chemicals Agency and related studies. Avoid using on broken or inflamed skin. This ingredient is not meant to be eaten; keep products out of young children’s mouths.
