5+ year old children • Skin contact product
For children 5 years and older (school-age kids and teens), this plant extract is generally considered low risk when used on the skin in normal amounts. It’s used to calm skin and provide antioxidant benefits.
If you want to use a product with this ingredient on a child 5 or older: do a small patch test first (apply a little to the inside of the forearm and wait 24 hours), avoid putting it on broken or red skin, stop use if you see redness, itching, or a rash, and choose products from brands that provide safety information. Use products intended for kids when possible and follow the product directions.
Watch for allergic reactions (redness, swelling, rash) and stop use right away if they happen. Avoid applying to cuts or irritated skin. Some product-certification programs restrict this ingredient unless the maker provides extra safety documentation; also industry reviews note recommendations for safe use — this is why some products may not include it. If your child has very sensitive skin or a history of plant allergies, check with your pediatrician before use.
