adults • Skin contact product
For adults: this chamomile flower extract is generally safe to use on the skin. It’s often added to creams and lotions to calm redness or mild irritation.
If you are an adult and want to try a product with this ingredient, do a small patch test first (apply a little on the inside of your forearm and wait 24–48 hours). Stop use and wash the area if you see redness, itchiness, swelling, or any new symptoms. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, talk with your healthcare provider before using products that contain this extract. If you know you’re allergic to the daisy family (ragweed, chamomile, marigold), avoid products with this ingredient.
Watch for signs of a contact allergy (redness, itching, rash, swelling). This warning comes from government chemical reviewers and cosmetic safety panels that have recorded limited cases of skin allergy (European Chemicals Agency; Cosmetic Ingredient Review). A small number of human case reports and reviews have noted possible nervous system effects and isolated reports in pregnancy (listed in the scientific literature), so pregnant or breastfeeding adults should check with their clinician. Also note that some product verification programs require extra documentation before allowing this ingredient, which reflects the need for care in some uses.
