6-12 month old babies • Skin contact product
For infants aged 6-12 months (baby, toddler-in-training), this soy-derived ingredient is generally safe in creams and lotions. It helps moisturize and soften skin and is considered low risk at the levels normally used in products.
Use products made for babies and follow the product directions. Do a small patch test on a clean area of the baby’s inner forearm or lower leg and wait 24 hours before widespread use. Avoid putting the product on broken or irritated skin, and keep it away from the baby’s eyes and mouth. If your baby has a known soy allergy, choose a product that does not list soy-derived ingredients. If you see any rash, redness, swelling, hives, or unusual fussiness after use, stop using the product and contact your pediatrician.
Available safety reviews note that companies should control how the ingredient is made and used (purity and concentration recommendations are given by the Cosmetic Ingredient Review). Watch for skin reactions (redness, swelling, hives) and avoid use if the baby has a known soy allergy. Do not use on broken skin. The source for the manufacturing and use recommendations is the Cosmetic Ingredient Review (industry safety assessment).
