ℹ️General Overview
For babies 6–12 months (infants), this oil is not recommended. It can cause allergic reactions and babies’ skin is extra sensitive.
✅What to Do
Avoid putting this oil on a baby’s skin. If you choose to use a product that contains it, do not apply it undiluted, keep it away from the baby’s face and hands, use only a very small, well-diluted amount on a small area, and check the skin for redness or irritation for 24–48 hours. Talk with your pediatrician before using products with this oil.
⚠️Warnings
Do not use undiluted on infants. Stop use immediately if you see redness, rash, swelling, or breathing changes. The warning comes from regulatory findings (EU Cosmetics Directive lists it as a known human allergen; Environment Canada has noted possible organ toxicity and environmental concerns). Keep products containing this oil out of reach of children and avoid application near the eyes, nose, mouth, and hands (babies often put hands in their mouths).
