Safety Risk Labels

This ingredient has the following documented risks:

Irritant: A safety review flagged possible skin, eye, or lung irritation, and a European chemical agency noted limited evidence of eye irritation. This means the ingredient can cause redness, stinging, or watery eyes in some people, and babies with sensitive skin could react more easily.

Absorbed: A cosmetic ingredient review lists this substance as a penetration enhancer. That means it can help other chemicals pass through the skin and into the body, raising the chance of more being absorbed—this matters for babies because their skin takes in more than adult skin.
