6-12 month old babies • Skin contact product
For babies 6–12 months old, decyl cocoate is generally safe when used on the skin in normal baby products. It’s a mild oil that helps soften and smooth skin and is not linked with serious long-term harms.
Use products that list decyl cocoate as a minor ingredient in gentle baby lotions or creams. Patch-test a small area on your baby’s arm or leg and wait 24 hours before regular use. Don’t put products containing it on broken or very red skin, and avoid the eye area.
Some safety reviewers (Cosmetic Ingredient Review) note there may be limits on how the ingredient is used and that it can cause irritation in sensitive people. Stop use and ask your baby’s doctor if you see new redness, swelling, blistering, or persistent rash after using a product with this ingredient.
