adults • Skin contact product
For adults: this soapbark extract is generally safe in skin products. Major health concerns (like cancer or effects on pregnancy) are rated low. The biggest issue is irritation — some people may get red, itchy skin, eye irritation, or breathing irritation if they inhale it.
If you are an adult using a product that lists this ingredient: 1) do a small patch test on your inner arm before using on larger areas; 2) avoid using near the eyes and do not spray it where you or others can breathe it in; 3) stop use and rinse with water if you get stinging, redness, or eye irritation; 4) choose products with the ingredient low on the ingredient list (lower concentration) if you have sensitive skin.
Watch for redness, itching, stinging, eye irritation, or breathing trouble. These warnings come from scientific reviews noting limited evidence of skin/eye/respiratory irritation and from the European Chemicals Agency which has flagged some related preparations as harmful in certain uses. Also note that food authorities allow limited uses in foods, but that does not remove the small risk of irritation when used on skin or inhaled.
