6-12 month old babies • Skin contact product
For babies 6–12 months old, this ingredient is generally safe and gentle when used in baby skin products. It helps soften and thicken creams and lotions and is not known to be dangerous.
Before using a new lotion or cream on your infant, test a small amount on a patch of skin (inner forearm or leg) and wait 24 hours to check for redness or rash. Use products labeled for babies, apply to intact (not broken) skin, avoid the eyes and mouth, and use the smallest amount needed. If your baby has eczema or very sensitive skin, try a product recommended by your pediatrician.
Watch for any redness, rash, swelling, blistering, or increased fussiness after applying a product — these are signs of an allergic reaction or irritation. A public ingredient safety database notes only low-level allergy concerns for this ingredient, but the overall product may contain other ingredients (fragrance, essential oils, preservatives) that raise risk. Do not apply to broken or infected skin. If your baby swallows a product or has a severe reaction, seek medical help right away.
