Has anyone had skin problems with MOONSAND?
thomasandchristin asked:
Has anyone had skin problems after playing with moon sand? We spent 5 hours in ER after my son put it on his
face. It looked like a chemical burn. ER Doc said bad bizzare rash. He had moon sand on his nose near the rash. I just read about a dog dying. And I am very concerned. They said it could be an allergic reaction, but my son has never had a rash since he was a baby and never on his face. I was crying it was so bad. It looked like a serious burn with a huge blister! I am very concered and would love any info anyone has.
Also thought I would add that he has Never been allergic to anything. This was very sudden and it went away last night and came back and spread to arms today and then went away.He was in alot of pain from the burning. If moon sand is NON-TOXIC and can’t be absorbed into skin like they say, then how could a six year with non-sensative skin need to go to the ER after pressing his cheek in it? He seems to be ok now.

Supposedly from what I read online it’s made of corn starch, flour and cream of tartar, with finely ground sand thrown in. Cream of Tartar is a natural, pure ingredient left behind after grape juice has fermented to wine. So maybe he had a reaction to grapes, maybe it’s corn, maybe it’s the kind of flour they use, maybe it’s the dye they use if it was colored, I don’t know. Jaded
