Ingredients Analysis (4 found)

vitamin A

🚨6/10

Topical vitamin A forms can irritate infant skin and be absorbed causing systemic exposure. Likely present as retinyl esters or retinol for skin repair or antioxidant in lotions or wipes.

Absorbed - Topical vitamin A (retinoids) can be absorbed through the skin, especially in infants with thinner skin barrier.

Organ Risk - Excessive topical vitamin A can potentially cause toxicity, affecting organs such as the liver, especially with repeated use or in high concentrations.

Long-Term Risk - Chronic exposure to high levels of vitamin A, even topically, may lead to cumulative toxicity and long-term health effects.

Confidence: HIGH

vitamin D3

⚠️5/10

For newborns and babies up to 6 months, topical vitamin D3 is generally low risk when used in small amounts or in products made for babies. But because infants’ skin is thinner and some countries limit its use in cosmetics, be careful and avoid using it regularly unless a doctor suggests it.

Banned - Health Canada says use is restricted in Canadian cosmetics and the EU cosmetics rules list it as banned or unsafe for use. That means some governments limit or forbid this ingredient in products.

Organ Risk - Environment Canada lists it as a medium human-health priority for non-reproductive organ effects, so there is a low-to-moderate concern it could affect organs with repeated or high exposures.

Absorbed - EU GHS workplace rules set very low allowed exposures for this substance, which shows it can enter the body during handling and be harmful if people are exposed at higher levels.

Environmental - Environment Canada flags this as an uncertain environmental toxin, meaning it may pose risks to the environment though the data are not clear.

Confidence: MEDIUM

✅1/10
