6-12 month old babies • Skin contact product
For babies 6-12 months (older infants), lavender flower extract is usually low risk when it is a small ingredient in baby skin products. Most babies won’t have problems, but some can get mild irritation or a rash.
Choose products made for babies and with short ingredient lists. Before using on your baby’s body, do a patch test: put a little on the inside of the forearm or chest and watch for 24 hours. Don’t put products with lavender on broken skin, near the eyes, mouth, or nose, and avoid undiluted lavender or concentrated essential oils. Use once daily at first and stop if you see any reaction. If you prefer extra caution, pick products that carry pediatric-safe or ingredient-safety certification and read labels.
Stop use and contact your pediatrician if you see redness, swelling, a clear rash, breathing changes, or if your baby becomes unusually fussy after application. A public ingredient safety database notes this ingredient as low concern but also flags that some product certification programs restrict its use unless manufacturers provide safety data — so check product labels if that matters to you. Keep all products out of reach and never let a baby ingest skin products.
