6-12 month old babies • Skin contact product
For infants (6–12 months), this olive‑based ingredient is usually safe in creams and lotions. Most safety reviews show low concern for serious problems; irritation is the main thing to watch for.
Use products made for babies and apply a small amount to intact skin. Do a quick patch test: put a little on the inside of the forearm and wait 24 hours. Avoid the eye area and don’t put it on cuts or open skin. If you see redness, swelling, or a rash, stop using it and talk to your pediatrician.
Safety reviews by the Cosmetic Ingredient Review note possible skin or eye irritation and advise use within recommended concentrations. Do not use on broken or inflamed skin, avoid getting it in the eyes or mouth, and stop use if your baby develops a persistent rash, swelling, blistering, or breathing problems. If irritation is severe, seek medical advice.
