If you have a known allergy to dandelion or plants in the daisy/aster family, avoid using it. Stop use and rinse if you get redness, itching, swelling or any other irritation. Avoid putting it on broken or inflamed skin. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding and worried, check with your healthcare provider.
