Liquid Bandage & Babies: Safety Concerns & Alternatives
No.
Liquid bandage is not safe to use on babies because their skin is thinner and more delicate than that of adults. Liquid bandage can cause skin irritation and may even be toxic if ingested.
If your baby has a cut or scrape, gently clean the wound with soap and water and then apply a sterile bandage. If your baby has a large or deep cut, seek medical attention.
