Can older babies use Safflower Oleosomes?
ℹ️General Overview
For a 6–12 month old baby (infant), safflower oleosomes come from safflower and are used as gentle moisturizers. Overall they are low risk when used on small areas of healthy skin, but there are low-level reports of mild irritation and some animal studies showing skin changes at high exposures.
✅What to Do
If you want to try a product with this ingredient on your baby: use a small amount on a small patch of healthy skin first (inner forearm or thigh), wait 24 hours to check for redness or rash, avoid using on broken or irritated skin, and don’t apply near the eyes or mouth. Use only a little at a time and avoid sprays that could be breathed in. If your baby develops redness, swelling, a rash, or any breathing difficulty, stop use and contact your pediatrician.
⚠️Warnings
Watch for skin irritation, redness, swelling, rash, or signs of allergy. Limited evidence of irritation comes from the European Chemicals Agency; some animal studies show skin and immune changes (peer-reviewed literature); a government health review indicated it is unlikely to be mutagenic in people but noted limited evidence in some studies (EPA). Because of possible enhanced skin absorption, avoid applying to large areas or broken skin and be cautious with infants’ thinner skin.
