Can older babies use Sclerotium Gum?
ℹ️General Overview
For babies aged 6–12 months (older infants, babies who are crawling or toddling), sclerotium gum is generally very low risk when it’s in baby lotions, wipes or creams. It’s used to make products feel smooth and stay mixed, and it doesn’t tend to get into the skin.
✅What to Do
Use products made for babies and follow the product directions. When trying a new product with sclerotium gum, put a small amount on a patch of skin (inside forearm or behind the knee) and wait 24–48 hours to check for redness or rash. Avoid applying to broken or irritated skin and keep products away from the baby’s eyes and mouth. If any redness, swelling, or rash appears, stop use and rinse the area, and talk to your pediatrician.

Some product verification programs may ask for extra proof before allowing this ingredient. Watch for signs of skin irritation or allergic reaction (redness, itching, rash).
