adults • Skin contact product
For adults, lemon balm leaf powder is generally safe to use on the skin. Reviews of ingredient safety show low concern for cancer, allergies, or effects on reproduction, and it is commonly used to add a soothing or fragrant touch to skin products.
If you are an adult using a product with this ingredient: test it first on a small patch of skin (inside forearm) and wait 24–48 hours to check for redness or itching; follow the product label directions; avoid contact with eyes and broken skin; stop use if you get irritation. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have a known plant allergy, talk with your healthcare provider before regular use.
Safety reviews and ingredient assessments report only low-level concerns for cancer, allergic reactions and reproductive effects — but people with plant or herb allergies can still get a skin reaction. If you notice redness, rash, swelling, or any breathing trouble after use, stop and seek medical advice. Keep products out of reach of children and avoid applying powders to babies or very young children without medical advice.
