YES - Generally Safe
Danger Score: 1 (Lower is safer)
Quick Answer: Vitamin D is generally considered safe for 5+ year old children when used in topical products. Kids may have different tolerance levels.

ℹ️General Overview

For children 5 years and older, vitamin D put on the skin in normal cosmetic or skin-care products is generally low risk. It is usually safe when used as the product label says.

What to Do

Pick products that list vitamin D and are sold as skin or cosmetic products. Follow the label directions. Don’t use medical-strength vitamin D topicals on your child unless a doctor tells you to. Keep creams away from the child’s mouth and eyes, and wash hands after applying.

⚠️Warnings

Some government agencies limit or restrict vitamin D in cosmetics (for example Health Canada and the EU cosmetics guidance). Because of those restrictions, avoid products that don’t list intended cosmetic use or that are labeled for other purposes. Stop use and talk to your child’s healthcare provider if you see skin redness, swelling, rash, or any unusual symptoms. Also keep products out of reach to prevent swallowing.
