6-12 month old babies • Skin contact product
For babies 6–12 months (infants, babies, little ones), aloe vera flower extract is usually safe when used in baby products like shampoos and body washes. It is used to help moisturize and soothe skin and is rated low concern for most hazards when kept at recommended levels.
Pick products made and labeled for babies or infants. Do a small patch test: apply a tiny amount behind your baby’s ear or on the inner forearm and wait 24 hours. Use the product as directed (don’t leave concentrated extract on the skin). If your baby has sensitive skin, eczema, or a family history of plant allergies, be extra cautious and consult your pediatrician before regular use.
A safety review panel (Cosmetic Ingredient Review) notes one animal study showing reproductive effects at moderate doses and recommends limits on how much of this extract is used and controls on impurities. Some product verification programs also expect extra documentation before allowing this ingredient. Watch for any redness, swelling, rash, or other signs of irritation. Avoid using it on broken or inflamed skin and stop use immediately and talk to your child’s doctor if you see a reaction.
