6-12 month old babies • Skin contact product
For babies 6–12 months old, aloe vera powder used on the skin is usually safe and is often used to soothe and moisturize. Serious risks are uncommon at normal skin-use levels.
Before using on a larger area, do a small patch test on the baby’s inner arm and wait 24 hours. Use a product made for babies or a simple formulation with few extra ingredients. Don’t put products in the baby’s mouth or on broken, open skin. If you see redness, swelling, or a rash, stop use and rinse the area.
There are animal studies that reported reproductive effects at moderate oral doses (Cosmetic Ingredient Review, 2006); this is why you should avoid ingestion and keep products away from a baby’s mouth. Also watch for skin sensitivity or allergy (rare). Some product verification programs may require extra safety documentation before allowing this ingredient in verified baby products—ask the brand if you have concerns.
