6-12 month old babies • Skin contact product
For babies 6–12 months (infants, babies, toddlers under one year), this ingredient is very mild and generally safe when used in baby products. It comes from oats and is used to soothe and condition skin.
Choose products made for infants. Before using a new lotion or cream, do a quick patch test: put a small amount on the inside of your baby's forearm or thigh and wait 24 hours to make sure there is no reaction. Apply only to intact (not broken) skin, avoid the eyes and mouth, and follow the product instructions. If your baby has a known oat or grain allergy, avoid products containing this ingredient.
Watch for redness, swelling, rash, itchiness, or any breathing trouble after applying a product — if you see these stop use and contact your pediatrician right away. Although the ingredient's safety summary lists low concern for allergy and other hazards, oats can still cause contact allergy in sensitive children, so be cautious and patch-test first. Keep all skincare products out of reach of children.
