For adults (grown-ups), safflower oleosomes are plant-based moisturizers and are usually safe to use on the skin. Most evidence shows low risk for cancer, allergies, and effects on a baby during pregnancy, but the data in people are limited.
Do a small patch test on the inside of your forearm and wait 24–48 hours before using widely. Use as directed on product labels. Don’t put products with this ingredient on cuts, open wounds, or badly irritated skin. If you get redness, itching, burning or a rash, stop using it. If you use spray products, avoid breathing in the mist.
Watch for skin redness, stinging, swelling, or a rash. A European chemicals review found limited evidence it can irritate skin or eyes, and some scientific (peer-reviewed) animal studies showed skin changes at higher doses and immune effects at high doses. A U.S. regulatory review found it unlikely to cause genetic mutation, although one peer-reviewed source reported limited evidence of mutation. These findings come from regulatory reviews and peer-reviewed scientific studies, so stop use and talk to a doctor if you have concerns or a reaction.
