Can older babies use Chickweed Extract?
ℹ️General Overview
For infants 6–12 months (baby, infant), chickweed extract used on the skin is likely low risk. It’s commonly found in gentle skin products and shows very low safety concerns in ingredient safety listings, though there's not a lot of specific research in babies.
✅What to Do
If you want to try a product with chickweed extract on your 6–12 month old: 1) choose a product labeled for sensitive or baby skin and without added fragrance; 2) do a small patch test on a tiny area (behind the ear or inner forearm) and wait 24–48 hours to watch for a reaction; 3) start with a very small amount and avoid putting it on broken, irritated, or weeping skin; 4) stop use immediately if you see redness, swelling, rash, or if your baby becomes unusually fussy, and check with your pediatrician before continuing; 5) if your baby has known plant or pollen allergies, consult your pediatrician first.
