Baby ate the end of a liquid eyeliner

[fancytiles]

It's a Charlotte tilbury felt tip liquid eyeliner, he seems fine in himself, what should I do??

I would seek advice from 111, making sure you have the full name of the product and the list of ingredients. Most small objects that are not sharp will pass through and out the other end, but I think I would be a little concerned about chemicals, depending on whether the tip was clean or not. Chances are all will be fine.

I don't think you need to do anything. He'll be fine.

Absolutely nothing. It isn't poisonous. He'll digest anything digestible and pass the rest.

How old is the baby?

He's 13 months old, he didn't eat the actual felt end of it, but it was all around his mouth and in his mouth, been on hold to 111 for an hour 😭

I wouldn’t do anything. It’s gentle enough to be used around your eye.

I’d leave it. He’ll be fine.

At 13m he’s old enough go around picking up and eating all sorts. Can’t be any different from sucking a felt tip can’t really be a lot to digest most would have just rubbed on his face

It's a 1ml eyeliner he sucked the end the felt tip I got out but it was all in his mouth and round his mouth, these are the ingredients

Aqua/water/eau, Methylpropanediol, Styrene/acrylates Copolymer, Styrene/acrylates/ammonium Methacrylate Copolymer, Cellulose, Peg-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Coco-glucoside, Poloxamer 407, Citric Acid, Phenoxyethanol, Potassium Sorbate, Phenylpropanol, Sodium Benzoate, Caprylyl Glycol, Sodium Laureth-12 Sulfate, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Sodium Dehydroacetate, Bht, .

He’ll be fine, has he had a good drink of water?

He has yes

He’s probably eaten much worse by now.

I wouldn’t worry.

Babies and toddlers eat weird shit all the time. Unless what they ate has a "WARNING, EXTREMELY TOXIC" label on it, the vast majority of the time what you need to do about it is nothing. This stuff was made for you to put on your eyes, remember. It was made with the expectation that it would be accidentally sucked, swallowed, and jabbed into people's mucus membranes. It is not toxic.

He absolutely will be fine. Please don't worry.

I wouldn't do anything.

Don't be alarmed if his poo is a different colour tomorrow

Okay thank you! Yes you're right makeup shouldn't be toxic!

If it makes you feel any better, this morning I had to use the phrases "Don't suck the pen!", "No, we do NOT eat catfood. I said NO!", "Come back here with that lemon! Come here!", "What's in your mouth? There's no food anywhere...", and "Stop getting things out of the bin, yuk yuk YUK!" to my 13 month old.

This is just the age that they get into everything, and it's only the fact that she's dd2 and we survived the stage with dd1 (now 5 and perfectly well behaved) that stops me constantly googling things like "Are bird fatballs poisonous to toddlers?" on an almost daily basis.

It wouldn't even occur to me to be anxious about this.

I'd be irritated, but not worried.

I have two under 4s and the other day I caught them daring each other to lick the others bums/noses/ears

The youngest loves dog biscuits

The eldest is repeatedly told off for trying to lick shampoo off the shower door.

Children are vile. Just be glad your first introduction to this is eyeliner and not shit/slugs/soil.

Mine recently repeatetly licked the window inside a train. That seems more gross and dangerous to me then eyeliner.
I wouldn't worry too much but follow your mum instinct and if it doesn't sit right with you, ring 111 for advice.

Thank you so much for the advice xxx

The other day I had to get a stone, mud, soil, a bit ripped off a wipe, and a piece of cat food out of my son's mouth before 4pm
