Is this kid-friendly to use Sucrose Stearate?
ℹ️General Overview
Sucrose stearate is a mild ingredient used to help creams and lotions blend. For kids 5 years and older it is generally safe, with very low risk of causing cancer, hormone or growth problems, or lasting harm.
✅What to Do
Use products with this ingredient as the label says. If your child has sensitive skin or eczema, try a small patch on the arm first and wait 24 hours. Don’t put it on broken or very irritated skin and avoid the eyes. Keep products away from toddlers and younger children.
⚠️Warnings
The data (including Environment Canada) say it is not expected to be toxic and not likely to build up in the body or environment. The main thing to watch for is skin reaction: redness, itching, swelling or a rash. If any of those happen, stop use and see your child’s doctor. Also be careful if the product contains other ingredients — this advice is about sucrose stearate by itself.
