6-12 month old babies • Skin contact product
This lavender extract is generally considered low risk, but because babies (6-12 months) have very sensitive skin, it can sometimes cause redness or a rash. Overall it’s not flagged as a major chemical hazard in the source data, but plant extracts can still bother some infants.
Only use products made and labeled for babies or young children. Do a small patch test: apply a drop of the product to a clean area on the inner forearm or belly and wait 24–48 hours to check for redness or irritation. Avoid products that list undiluted essential oils. Do not put products with this ingredient near the baby’s face, eyes, nose, or mouth. Stop use and wash the area if you see redness, rash, swelling, or any breathing changes, and contact your pediatrician if you are concerned.
The ingredient safety data provided notes a restriction in some verification/certification programs unless manufacturers provide supporting safety information — this is a regulatory/labeling note from the source data. Parents should watch for skin redness, rash, swelling, or breathing problems. Avoid applying to broken or irritated skin and avoid concentrated forms (undiluted essential oils). If the product is not clearly formulated for infants or the label warns against use on young children, do not use it on babies.
