Ingredients Analysis (17 found)

Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract

⚠️5/10

For infants (0–6 months): avoid regular use when possible. Green tea leaf extract is often gentle for adults but can cause allergic or immune reactions in some people, and babies’ skin is more sensitive.

Immune system - This ingredient is reported as a human allergen by the International Fragrance Association and flagged for immune/allergy concern by the Cosmetic Ingredient Review. That means some people — including children — can have allergic reactions when their skin meets this extract.

Irritant - Because it is identified as a human allergen, contact can cause skin redness, itching, or rashes. The International Fragrance Association lists it as a known allergen, so it can act as a skin irritant for sensitive or young skin.

Eczema - Allergic or irritant reactions to this extract can trigger or make eczema worse in babies and children. The Cosmetic Ingredient Review and the International Fragrance Association note allergy risk, which can worsen eczema-prone skin.

Confidence: MEDIUM

Propanediol

⚠️4/10

For newborns and babies (0-6 months) propanediol is not usually thought to be highly toxic, but it can make skin absorb other things more and has been linked to skin irritation in some studies. Because babies’ skin is very delicate, I recommend being cautious.

Irritant - Propanediol has been linked to skin, eye, or lung irritation. It is listed as a skin irritant by the U.S. National Library of Medicine, and both the European chemical regulator and a cosmetics safety review report limited evidence of irritation. This means it can cause redness, itching or rashes—especially on sensitive baby skin.

Absorbed - Propanediol is noted as a penetration enhancer by the Cosmetic Ingredient Review. That means it can help itself or other ingredients move through the skin and into the body, increasing the chance of absorption into the bloodstream.

Confidence: MEDIUM

Mangifera Indica Fruit Extract

⚠️4/10

Limited safety data for Mangifera Indica Fruit Extract on infants under 6 months may cause irritation or allergy likely used as antioxidant or skin conditioning agent

Irritant - Mango extract, particularly from the skin or sap, can act as a skin irritant and cause redness or rashes, especially on sensitive baby skin.

Confidence: LOW

Beeswax

✅3/10

Beeswax is usually safe for newborn skin when used in small amounts as part of a cream or balm.

Confidence: MEDIUM-HIGH

Lonicera Caprifolium Flower Extract

✅3/10

For newborns and babies (0-6 months): this honeysuckle flower extract is generally considered low risk for long-term harm, but baby skin and lungs are very sensitive. There is some limited evidence that it can irritate eyes and breathing, so extra caution is advised for infants and newborns.

Confidence: MEDIUM

Stearyl Alcohol

✅3/10

For newborns and babies (0–6 months), stearyl alcohol is a common ingredient used to make creams and lotions feel smooth. Most experts see low risk for long‑term problems, but it can cause skin or eye irritation in some people. Because babies have very delicate skin, we should be extra careful.

Confidence: MEDIUM

Persea Gratissima Fruit Extract

✅3/10

Persea gratissima fruit extract is avocado extract used as moisturizer minor allergy risk in infants but generally safe in low concentrations

No Known Risk - Avocado extract is generally considered safe for topical use, including on sensitive baby skin. There is no credible evidence linking it to irritation, hormone disruption, cancer, or other health risks in babies based on current research.

Confidence: MEDIUM

Cetyl Alcohol

✅2/10

For newborns and infants (0–6 months): cetyl alcohol is usually safe when used in small amounts in baby products. It helps creams feel smooth and rarely causes reactions, but baby skin is extra sensitive and some experts want more safety data.

Confidence: MEDIUM

Colloidal Oatmeal

✅2/10

Colloidal oatmeal is generally safe for newborns and infants (0–6 months) when used on the skin. It’s commonly used to calm dry, itchy or irritated baby skin and the safety information provided shows low concerns.

No Known Risk - The ingredient's safety review shows only low-level concerns for cancer, allergies or immune effects, developmental/reproductive harm, and use limits. No hazards above low were identified for topical use in the available review, so no significant health risks were found.

Confidence: HIGH

Glycerin

✅2/10

For newborns and infants (0–6 months): glycerin is a common, mild moisturizer found in many baby lotions and wipes. When used at normal levels in products made for babies, it is usually safe and well tolerated.

Confidence: HIGH

Lonicera Japonica Flower Extract

✅2/10

This honeysuckle flower extract is generally considered low concern in ingredient databases, but for infants (newborns, babies 0–6 months) their skin is very sensitive. That means even low-risk plant extracts can sometimes cause redness or a rash.

No Known Risk - This topical flower extract shows only low-level concerns across checked categories (cancer, allergies/immunity, and developmental/reproductive) in a public cosmetic ingredient summary. No higher-than-low hazards or use limits were reported, so there are no clear safety risks identified for typical skin use.

Confidence: MEDIUM

Saccharomyces Ferment Filtrate

✅2/10

For infants (0-6 months), this ingredient is considered very low concern by public safety listings, but specific studies in newborns are limited. Because baby skin is delicate, we recommend being cautious.

No Known Risk - The safety summary for this topical ingredient lists only low-level concerns (cancer, allergies/immune, developmental/reproductive, and use limits). No moderate or higher hazards were identified for typical topical use, so there are no specific health risks flagged.

Confidence: MEDIUM

Stearic Acid

✅2/10

Stearic acid is a common ingredient in baby creams and wipes and is generally low risk. Reviews by government and industry experts find little evidence it causes cancer, strong allergic reactions, or harm to development. Because newborn skin is very delicate, we err on the side of caution for babies under 6 months.

Confidence: HIGH

Cucumis Sativus Fruit Extract

✅2/10

Cucumis Sativus is cucumber extract used for soothing skin minor concerns for sensitive baby skin but generally safe in low concentrations

No Known Risk - Cucumber extract is generally considered safe for topical use, including on baby skin. There is no strong evidence linking it to irritation, allergies, or any of the listed health risks in babies. It is commonly used in baby skincare products without reported adverse effects.

Confidence: MEDIUM

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

✅1/10

This ingredient is a gentle, lightweight oil used to moisturize skin. For newborns and babies (0–6 months) it is generally safe when used in normal baby lotions or wipes.

Confidence: HIGH

Jojoba Esters

✅1/10

Jojoba esters are a plant-based moisturizer commonly used in baby lotions and oils. For newborns and infants (0–6 months) they are usually safe and have a low chance of causing cancer, hormonal, or fertility problems. However, safety notes from industry reviewers say safe use depends on how much is used and how the ingredient is made.

No Known Risk - Reviewed safety assessments by an industry safety panel show low concern for cancer, allergies, developmental or reproductive harm, and no clear evidence of irritation or long-term organ harm from topical use. The panel notes that safety conclusions rely on reported use concentrations and that manufacturers should provide substantiation of safe levels, but current available evaluations do not identify real health risks for children using this ingredient on skin.

Confidence: HIGH

Water

✅0/10

Water is very safe for a newborn’s or baby’s skin. Tests and regulatory reviews find no meaningful health risks from water used on the skin.

No Known Risk - Regulatory reviews (Environment Canada) find plain water is not expected to be toxic, not bioaccumulative, and not an environmental toxin. Safety summaries list no concerns above a low level for organ harm, reproductive effects, or other long‑term risks for topical use, so no specific health risks are identified for use on skin.

Confidence: HIGH
