5+ year old children • Skin contact product
For school-age kids (5 years and older), rosehip (Rosa Canina) fruit oil in creams or lotions is usually safe and often used to moisturize skin. Most concerns are low, but some regulators have noted limited data and suggested limits on how it’s used.
Use products that contain rosehip oil as the maker directs — don’t apply pure concentrated oil straight from the bottle. Do a small patch test on a forearm and wait 24 hours before wider use. Keep products away from eyes and broken skin. If your child has sensitive skin or a history of reactions, try a short contact test or choose a product labeled for sensitive skin.
Watch for redness, itching, swelling or other skin irritation and stop use if any appear. Some regulatory agencies (for example, Environment Canada) have flagged potential organ-system effects at certain exposures, and industry reviewers (Cosmetic Ingredient Review) note data gaps and recommend limits or testing — so prefer finished products with safe formulation and avoid high-concentration or industrial-grade rosehip oil on children.
