Can older babies use Mango?
ℹ️General Overview
For babies 6-12 months (infants, older babies), mango extract on the skin is usually safe and has a very low risk of harm. Most babies will not have a problem with it.
✅What to Do
If you want to use a product with mango on your 6–12 month old: do a small patch test first (apply a tiny amount to the inside of the forearm or behind the knee and wait 24 hours). Use products sparingly and avoid putting them on broken skin or near the mouth and eyes. If your baby has a known fruit allergy or eczema, skip it or check with your pediatrician before use.
⚠️Warnings
Although general safety listings mark mango as low concern, some infants can have mild irritation or a contact allergy. Stop use and wash the area if you see redness, swelling, itching, blisters, or a rash. If symptoms are severe or your baby has trouble breathing, seek medical help right away. These precautions come from public ingredient safety listings and reports of rare allergic reactions to fruit extracts.
