Ingredients Analysis (5 found)

Calcium Hydroxide
🚫8/10
For infants (0-6 months) this ingredient is not recommended. It can irritate baby skin, eyes, and breathing, and is formally restricted or limited in cosmetic uses.
Irritant - Authoritative safety guides list calcium hydroxide as an irritant to skin, eyes, and lungs. A chemical-hazards pocket guide classifies it as an eye/skin/lung irritant, a U.S. medical toxicology source reports evidence of skin irritation, and an industry safety panel says it can cause irritation unless used at limited concentrations. For a baby, that means this ingredient can cause redness, stinging, or rashes on delicate skin or damage if it gets in the eyes.
Asthma - Chemical-hazard guidance specifically calls out lung irritation from calcium hydroxide. Because it can irritate the lungs, it can make breathing problems or asthma worse in children if inhaled or if fine dust/aerosols reach the airways.
Banned - Regulatory sources for cosmetics show use and concentration limits for calcium hydroxide and recommend restrictions. The EU Cosmetics Directive / Cosing records restrictions and the industry review panel says it is only safe when formulated to avoid irritation. These rules mean some countries or product standards limit or prohibit its use in cosmetics.
Confidence: HIGH
Organic 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
Organic Olea Europaea Fruit Oil
✅2/10
Organic olive oil is generally safe for baby skin but may rarely cause irritation or worsen eczema used as moisturizer or emollient
No Known Risk - Olive oil is generally considered safe for topical use on baby skin, with no strong evidence linking it to irritation, eczema, or other health risks in most infants. While some studies suggest it may worsen eczema in predisposed babies, this is not consistent or proven for the general population. There are no known links to hormone disruption, cancer, organ risk, or other listed risks based on current research.
Confidence: HIGH
Tocopherols
✅1/10
Non-GMO Mixed Tocopherols are forms of vitamin E used as antioxidants and are generally safe for baby skin in topical products
No Known Risk - Tocopherols (vitamin E) are widely used in topical baby products and are generally considered safe for infant skin. There is no strong evidence linking topical tocopherols to irritation, hormone disruption, cancer, or other health risks in babies. Rare allergic reactions are possible but not common, so no risk labels apply based on current research.
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
