For adults: fennel extract in creams or lotions is generally low risk. Most adults can use it without problems, but a small number may have skin irritation or an allergy.
If you want to try a product with fennel extract, do a small patch test on the inside of your arm first and wait 24 hours. Use products as directed and avoid applying to broken or very sensitive skin. Don’t use concentrated fennel oil neat on skin. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, check with your healthcare provider before using products with concentrated fennel components.
Stop use and see a doctor if you get redness, itching, swelling, blisters, or other signs of irritation after using the product. Avoid if you have a known allergy to plants in the carrot/parsley family (for example, celery, carrot, anise). Be aware that some product safety programs limit use of fennel extract unless the maker shows supporting safety data, so look for products from reputable brands and follow label directions.
