6-12 month old babies • Skin contact product
For babies (6–12 months), Sambucus Nigra Seed Oil is likely safe when used on the skin in small amounts. It is a plant oil with low safety concerns in ingredient records, but babies can have sensitive or reactive skin.
Do a small patch test on your baby's inner forearm or behind the knee and wait 24 hours. Use a tiny amount and rub it in gently. Avoid using on broken, red or sore skin and keep it away from the eyes and mouth. If your baby has eczema or known plant/seed allergies, talk with your pediatrician before using.
Look for any redness, swelling, hives, blistering, or unusual fussiness after applying — these are signs of irritation or allergy. This caution comes from ingredient safety listings that note very low allergy risk overall but acknowledge plant-derived oils can still cause reactions in some people. If you see breathing problems, seek emergency care immediately. Stop use if irritation appears and consult your child's doctor.
