Quick Answer: Prunus Domestica Seed Oil is generally considered safe for 6-12 month old babies when used in topical products. Monitor for any reactions in older babies.

ℹ️General Overview

Plum seed oil is used on the skin as a moisturizing oil. For babies 6–12 months old it is usually safe and gentle when used in normal amounts in baby products.

What to Do

Before using on your baby, patch-test a small drop on the inside of the forearm or behind the knee and wait 24 hours. Use products made for infants rather than pouring concentrated oil on the skin. Apply a small amount to dry areas, avoid the eyes and broken skin, and stop use if you see redness or a rash. If your baby has eczema or very sensitive skin, ask your pediatrician before use.

⚠️Warnings

Safety reviewers note limited data and recommend limits on how the ingredient is used (source: industry safety reviews by the Cosmetic Ingredient Review panel). Also, some product verification programs will not allow this ingredient unless the maker provides safety data — so prefer trusted baby brands that list testing or suitability for infants. Watch for signs of allergic reaction (hives, swelling, breathing trouble) and get immediate medical care if those occur.
