ℹ️General Overview
For school-age children and older kids (5+ years), this ingredient is usually safe in topical skin products at the concentrations typically used. Major health concerns like cancer or allergy are considered low, but some industry reviewers note missing data and advise limits on concentration.
✅What to Do
Use products that list ingredients and follow the product directions. Do a small patch test on the inside of the forearm and wait 24–48 hours to check for redness or itching before applying more widely. Start with products that are lower strength and avoid high-concentration treatments unless a doctor or dermatologist recommends them. Keep products away from the eyes and mouth, and do not apply to broken or irritated skin.
⚠️Warnings
Watch for any skin redness, swelling, itching, or blistering — stop use if these appear and seek medical advice for severe reactions. Industry safety reviews (Cosmetic Ingredient Review) note data gaps and recommend limits on concentration and control of impurities, so prefer products from reputable manufacturers and avoid off-label use of concentrated formulas. Some product-certification programs also require manufacturers to show safety data before including this ingredient.
