If you want to try a product with this extract: do a small patch test on the inside of your forearm first. Stop use if you see redness, itching, swelling, or a rash. Avoid putting it on broken or infected skin. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, check with your healthcare provider before using new botanical extracts.
The public ingredient listing notes low risk for cancer, allergies, and developmental effects, but also states that some product certification programs restrict its use unless the manufacturer provides documentation.
