adults • Skin contact product
For adults, this ingredient is generally safe when used on the skin. Major safety reviews rate its overall hazards as low. Some sources note a small chance of irritation to the skin, eyes, or breathing, but serious risks are not expected for normal adult use.
If you're an adult using a product that contains this ingredient: do a small patch test on your inner wrist or behind your ear before first use; avoid getting the product in your eyes; follow the product instructions; stop use if you get redness, itching, swelling, or any unusual breathing symptoms and rinse the area. If irritation is severe or doesn't go away, contact a healthcare provider.
Watch for skin or eye irritation — a cosmetic ingredient review notes limited data and flags possible irritation. People with very sensitive skin should be extra cautious and patch-test first. If you have a history of skin allergies or asthma, use products containing this ingredient with extra care and stop use if you notice symptoms. The ingredient’s other potential concerns (cancer, allergy risk, or effects on development/reproduction) are rated low by safety reviews, so they are not the primary issue to worry about for adults.
