For adults and grown-ups this is a mild cleansing ingredient used in soaps and shampoos. Serious health risks are low, but it can sometimes cause skin or eye irritation for people with sensitive skin.
Use products as directed. Avoid getting the product in your eyes. If you have sensitive skin, try a small patch test on your inner arm first. If you get redness, burning, or stinging, stop using the product. For face use, choose formulas made for facial skin if you are prone to irritation.
The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) notes it is generally safe with some limits but that skin, eye, or lung irritation has been reported or is not fully assessed. Also, some product verification programs may require extra safety documentation before allowing this ingredient. Watch for any redness, swelling, itching, or eye irritation after use and stop use if these occur. If you have a history of allergic reactions, consult a healthcare provider before regular use.
