ℹ️General Overview
For a 6–12 month old baby (infant), eggplant (Solanum melongena) fruit extract is generally considered safe when present at normal levels in baby skincare products. The supplied safety data shows only low-level concerns for serious harms. The most likely issue is an uncommon skin reaction or allergy.
✅What to Do
Choose products made for babies that list this ingredient rather than using concentrated extracts. Do a patch test: apply a tiny amount to the inside of the baby's forearm or thigh and wait 24 hours. If there is no redness, swelling, heat, or rash, it is likely safe to use as directed. Avoid applying the product to broken or very inflamed skin, and keep products away from the baby’s eyes and mouth.
⚠️Warnings
The provided safety data indicates only low-level concerns overall (low flags for cancer, allergies, and developmental effects), but parents should watch for skin reactions such as redness, swelling, or a rash. If your baby has a known allergy or sensitivity to nightshade plants (eggplant, tomato, potato, peppers), avoid products with this extract. Stop use and contact your pediatrician if you see any persistent or worsening reaction. This guidance is based on the supplied safety information for this ingredient.
