6-12 month old babies • Skin contact product
For babies aged 6–12 months, this ingredient is generally considered low risk when used on the skin. Public safety listings rate concerns like cancer, allergies, and effects on growth or reproduction as low.
Use products made for babies or sensitive skin, and apply a small amount first. Put a tiny dab on the baby’s inner forearm and wait 24 hours to check for any redness or rash. Avoid applying on broken or very irritated skin. If your baby has known sensitive skin, talk with your pediatrician before trying a new product.
Stop use and talk to your doctor if you see redness, swelling, blisters, or if the baby becomes unusually fussy after application. The safety note comes from a public ingredient safety database that lists this ingredient as low concern, but data are limited. Also watch the full product label — other ingredients could cause problems even if this one is low risk.
