For adults, hydrogenated macadamia seed oil is generally safe to use on the skin. It is a mild, moisturizing plant oil with low overall safety concerns.
If you plan to use a product with this oil, do a small patch test on the inside of your forearm first. Stop use if you get redness, itching, swelling, or a rash. Avoid putting it on broken or inflamed skin. If you have a known tree-nut allergy, either avoid it or check with your healthcare provider before use. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding and are worried, talk with your healthcare provider, though current safety notes list low concern.
Watch for signs of skin irritation or an allergic reaction (redness, itching, swelling). People with tree-nut allergies should be especially careful — this advice comes from the ingredient safety notes and an industry review (Cosmetic Ingredient Review) that accompany the ingredient data.
