Ingredients Analysis (18 found)

Lavender Oil
🚫8/10
For newborns and infants (0-6 months), avoid putting lavender essential oil on the skin. Babies have very delicate skin and bodies, and there are reports suggesting possible hormone-related effects and skin reactions from lavender products.
Hormones - There are medical case reports and laboratory studies that link topical lavender oil to hormone changes in children, including early breast development and small breast tissue in boys. These findings show the oil can affect normal hormone development in young children.
Confuse Hormones - Research studies found that lavender oil can act like estrogen in lab tests and in reported clinical cases. That means the oil may mimic or confuse the body’s natural hormone signals.
Absorbed - Cases of hormone effects after skin use mean the oil can get through skin and reach the body. Clinical reports showing systemic effects support that topical lavender oil can be absorbed into the bloodstream.
Confidence: HIGH
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
Potassium Cocoate
✅3/10
For newborns and infants (0–6 months), this ingredient is a coconut‑oil based soap that is generally not linked to serious long‑term harm, but it can be drying or irritating to very young, sensitive skin and eyes.
No Known Risk - Government health assessments conclude this ingredient is not expected to cause organ toxicity, is not persistent or likely to build up in the body, and is considered a low priority for human health. An industry safety review notes data gaps and recommends limits on how much may be used in products, and there is only limited evidence of skin or eye irritation. Taken together, current reviews find no significant health risks for typical topical use when the ingredient is used within recommended limits (government and industry safety reviews).
Confidence: MEDIUM
Calendula Flower Extract
✅3/10
For infants (0–6 months): generally low risk when used in small amounts in baby lotions or wipes made for newborn skin. But because it’s a plant extract, some babies can get a skin reaction, especially if they or family members are allergic to daisies/marigolds.
No Known Risk - Safety reviews for this calendula flower extract show only low-level concerns for cancer, allergies, and effects on growth/reproduction. Industry safety panels note limits on how much can be used and say some data are missing, but there is no clear evidence of real harm when used on the skin. Some verified product programs restrict its use unless makers provide extra safety information.
Confidence: MEDIUM
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
Glyceryl Stearate
✅2/10
For newborns and babies 0–6 months: this ingredient is commonly used in baby lotions and is usually low risk. Still, baby skin is thinner and soaks up things more easily than older children, so extra care is wise.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Jojoba Seed Oil
✅2/10
Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil is jojoba oil used as a moisturizer generally safe but rare allergies possible in infants under 6 months
No Known Risk - Jojoba oil is widely regarded as safe for topical use on babies and is not linked to irritation, hormone disruption, cancer, or other health risks based on current research. It is non-allergenic, non-comedogenic, and does not contain known harmful chemicals. No credible studies have shown significant adverse effects in infants or children when used as directed.
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
Xylityl Caprate
✅2/10
For newborns and babies (0–6 months) this ingredient looks low risk based on safety assessments. It’s commonly used in tiny amounts in creams and wipes and is unlikely to cause serious health problems, but there is limited testing specifically in infants, so we stay cautious.
No Known Risk - Available safety reviews and regulatory evaluations show only low-level concerns for cancer, allergies, reproductive effects, and use limits. It is also listed as safe for limited use in food by the US FDA. For topical use, no higher-than-low hazards were identified, so no specific health risks are indicated.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Xylityl Caprylate
✅2/10
For infants (0-6 months): this ingredient is generally considered low risk when used in small amounts on intact skin. However, there is very little direct safety information for newborns, and their skin is more sensitive, so take extra care.
No Known Risk - Current safety reviews show low concern across the usual categories (cancer, allergies/immune, and developmental/reproductive), and it is listed as safe for limited use in food by a U.S. regulator. Based on these assessments, there are no known health risks for normal topical use.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Cocoa Seed Butter
✅2/10
Theobroma cacao seed butter is cocoa butter used as a skin emollient minor allergy risk but generally safe for baby skin
No Known Risk - Cocoa butter is widely used in baby products and is generally considered safe for topical use on baby skin. There is no strong evidence linking it to irritation, allergies, hormone disruption, or other health risks in babies. Rare allergic reactions may occur, but these are uncommon and not specific to cocoa butter itself. Current research and regulatory guidance do not identify cocoa butter as a risk for babies.
Confidence: HIGH
Coconut Oil
✅1/10
Coconut oil is generally safe for infant skin and is used as a moisturizer but monitor for rare allergies
No Known Risk - Coconut oil is widely used topically for babies and is generally considered safe. There is no strong evidence linking it to irritation, allergies, hormone disruption, cancer, or other health risks when used on healthy baby skin. Rare allergic reactions are possible, but not common enough to warrant a risk label based on current research.
Confidence: HIGH
Shea Butter
✅1/10
Butyrospermum Parkii Shea Butter is a natural fat used as an emollient in baby products. It is very safe and commonly used in baby lotions and wipes for 0-6 months babies.
No Known Risk - Shea butter is widely used in baby skincare products and is generally considered safe for topical use. There is no strong evidence linking it to irritation, allergies, hormone disruption, or other health risks in babies. Rare allergic reactions may occur, but these are uncommon and not specific to infants. Current research and regulatory guidance do not identify any significant risks for babies when shea butter is used topically.
Confidence: HIGH
Sunflower Seed Oil
✅1/10
Sunflower Seed Oil is generally safe for infant skin and is used as a moisturizer in baby products
No Known Risk - Sunflower seed oil is widely used in baby skincare products and is generally considered safe for topical use. There is no strong evidence linking it to irritation, allergies, or other health risks in babies when used on intact skin. It is not associated with hormone disruption, cancer, or other long-term health effects according to current research.
Confidence: HIGH
Xanthan Gum
✅1/10
For babies 0–6 months (newborns and infants): xanthan gum is generally very safe when used in skincare like wipes or lotions. It’s a thickener that usually sits on the skin and rarely causes problems.
No Known Risk - Safety reviews and regulatory assessments find no health hazards above a low level for topical use. It is approved for limited use in food, classified as not expected to be toxic and a low human-health priority, and not suspected to be an environmental toxin. Cosmetic industry reviewers note only guidance on concentrations or purity. Because no concern was rated above low, no specific risks were identified for babies or children.
Confidence: HIGH
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
Caprylic Triglyceride
✅1/10
Caprylic triglyceride is a common emollient and skin conditioning agent considered very safe for topical use in baby lotions for 0-6 month olds.
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.
