For adults: vanilla extract used on the skin is generally low risk. Most people can use it without problems, but a small number of adults may get mild irritation or an allergic reaction.
If you’re an adult trying a product with this ingredient, do a small patch test on the inside of your forearm first. Stop using it if you get redness, itching, or a rash. Avoid using it on broken skin and keep products away from your eyes. If you know you react to fragranced products, choose fragrance-free options.
Watch for signs of allergy or irritation (redness, itching, swelling, blisters, or breathing problems). These concerns come from safety reviews by the Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) and the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA), which note limited evidence of skin and eye irritation and some reports of allergic reactions. Some product certification programs or manufacturers may limit how much of this ingredient is used in products.
