✅What to Do
Use products made for babies. Before spreading a new lotion over large areas, try a small patch on the baby’s forearm or thigh and wait 24 hours.

If you’re unsure, ask your pediatrician.

The provided ingredient safety screening data shows low concern for cancer, allergies, and developmental effects, but other ingredients in the same product (like fragrances or some preservatives) may still cause irritation.
