Ingredients Analysis (20 found)

pimpinella anisum seed isolate

🚨7/10

For newborns and babies 0–6 months: this seed extract can cause skin allergy in some people and there is not enough safety data for very young babies. Because baby skin is extra sensitive, it’s best to avoid products that list this ingredient.

Immune system - This ingredient is listed as a known human allergen and has evidence of causing allergic reactions on the skin, so it can trigger immune responses in sensitive children (noted by the EU cosmetics authority and by the European chemicals agency).

Irritant - There is limited but clear evidence of dermal toxicity and skin allergies, meaning it can cause skin redness, itching, or rashes on contact for some people (documented by the European chemicals agency).

Eczema - Because it is a known allergen and can cause skin reactions, it may trigger or make eczema and similar skin conditions worse in babies or children (supported by the EU cosmetics directive and the European chemicals agency findings).

Confidence: MEDIUM

rosmarinus officinalis leaf extract

🚨6/10

Rosemary leaf extract comes from the rosemary plant and is used to help preserve or lightly scent skin products. For newborns and infants (0–6 months) it can sometimes cause skin irritation or allergic rashes.

Immune system - This rosemary leaf extract is linked to allergic and immune reactions. A European cosmetics safety rule lists strong evidence that it can act as a human allergen, and a U.S. cosmetics review also flagged immune/allergy concerns. That means it can trigger unwanted immune responses in some people.

Irritant - The ingredient has been identified as a human allergen, which can cause skin redness, itching, or contact reactions when applied to the skin. This is supported by the same European safety finding that showed strong evidence of allergenicity.

Eczema - Because it can cause allergic skin reactions, this extract may trigger or make eczema and similar rashes worse in sensitive individuals, as noted by cosmetic safety reviewers who raised immune/allergy concerns.

Confidence: HIGH

lecithin

⚠️5/10

For newborns and babies (0-6 months), lecithin is usually used as an ingredient to help creams and lotions spread. Many people tolerate it, but babies’ skin is delicate and there are signs that some people can have allergic reactions and that products can sometimes be contaminated. Because of that, it is safer to be cautious with lecithin on infant skin.

Immune system - A professional clinic group (AOEC) and published case reports show strong evidence that lecithin can act as an allergen or immune-system irritant in people. That means it can trigger allergic or immune reactions in some children, so watch for rashes, swelling, or breathing trouble.

Asthma - Experts report lecithin as a human respiratory toxicant or allergen (AOEC) and case studies show possible breathing-related reactions. This could make asthma or wheezy breathing worse in sensitive children.

Absorbed - A cosmetic industry safety panel (Cosmetic Ingredient Review, CIR) lists lecithin as a penetration enhancer, meaning it can help other substances get through the skin and into the body. That raises the chance that unwanted chemicals could be absorbed.

Cancer - The ingredient record flags contamination concerns — specifically nitrosamines — at a high level. Nitrosamines are known carcinogens, so contamination raises a potential cancer risk if products contain those impurities.

Environmental - A national agency review (Environment Canada) notes uncertainty about environmental toxicity for this substance. That means it could pose risks to wildlife or ecosystems, though the evidence is unclear.

Confidence: MEDIUM

ocimum basilicum leaf isolate

⚠️5/10

Ocimum basilicum leaf extract is basil extract which may cause irritation or allergy in infants under 6 months and lacks safety data for this age group

No Known Risk - Basil leaf extract is generally considered safe for topical use, with no strong evidence linking it to irritation, allergies, hormone disruption, or other health risks in babies. There are no known reports of toxicity or adverse effects in infants from topical application, so it is considered low risk based on current research.

Confidence: MEDIUM

phytic acid

⚠️4/10

For infants (newborns and babies 0–6 months): phytic acid is generally low risk for most people, but baby skin is very delicate and can be more easily irritated or absorb ingredients. Because of that, it’s safer to avoid phytic acid in products you put on a baby’s skin whenever possible.

Hormones - A safety review found studies where this ingredient changed hormone activity at low doses. This means it may affect natural hormone development in babies or children (source: Cosmetic Ingredient Review).

Organ Risk - A European chemical agency classified it as potentially harmful to organs with repeated exposure, though another regulator gave a more benign view. Because one major regulator flagged organ toxicity, there is a real risk to organs like the liver or kidneys if exposure is high or repeated (source: European Chemicals Agency).

Absorbed - A cosmetic safety review notes this ingredient can be absorbed through the skin. That means what is put on the skin can get into the body, so other risks (like hormone or organ effects) are more relevant (source: Cosmetic Ingredient Review).

Confidence: MEDIUM

aloe barbadensis leaf juice

✅3/10

For newborns and infants (0–6 months): aloe vera leaf juice is usually low risk in small amounts, but babies this young have very sensitive skin. It may cause irritation in some infants and industry safety reviews recommend using it only within set limits.

Confidence: MEDIUM

calendula officinalis extract

✅3/10

For newborns and infants (0–6 months), calendula flower extract is generally considered low risk and is often used to soothe skin. Because baby skin is very delicate, we are extra careful and treat it as a mild but not risk-free ingredient.

No Known Risk - Reviewed safety information finds low concern for cancer, allergic or immune effects, and developmental or reproductive harms for this topical plant extract. An industry safety panel (Cosmetic Ingredient Review) did note some data gaps and recommends limits on concentration and control of impurities, but no serious hazards were identified for normal skin use. Because formal safety reviews rate the concerns as low, there are no known health risks for typical topical use.

Confidence: MEDIUM

glyceryl caprylate

✅3/10

For infants (0–6 months): this ingredient is usually low risk in adults, but because newborn skin soaks up products more easily and there are notes from safety reviewers about possible hormone effects and increased absorption, it’s safer to be cautious with babies.

Confidence: MEDIUM

sodium levulinate

✅3/10

For infants (0-6 months): overall low concern but take extra care. Studies show it may sometimes irritate skin or eyes and it can help other ingredients pass through the skin more easily — which matters because baby skin is thinner and more absorbent.

Confidence: MEDIUM

canola oil

✅2/10

For newborns and infants (0-6 months) canola oil used on the skin is generally safe and commonly used as a mild moisturizer. Most babies tolerate it well, but because baby skin is very delicate, I recommend being careful and watching for any irritation.

Confidence: MEDIUM

cetearyl alcohol

✅2/10

For infants and newborns (0–6 months): Cetearyl alcohol is a common ingredient that helps creams and lotions feel smooth. When it is used in products made for babies it is usually low risk, but baby's skin is delicate so be a little cautious.

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

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

levulinic acid

✅2/10

For newborns and infants (0–6 months), levulinic acid is generally considered low risk by government and independent reviewers. However, because baby skin is very sensitive and there are limited studies in this exact age group, we recommend extra caution.

No Known Risk - Official safety reviews and government assessments find low concern for this ingredient. Reviews say it is unlikely to cause cancer, is allowed for limited use in food, is not expected to harm organs, and is not likely to persist or build up in the environment or body. A cosmetic expert review notes safe use when following limits on concentration and impurities. For typical topical use, there are no higher-than-low concerns reported.

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

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

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

vegetable glycerin

✅1/10

Vegetable glycerin is a common moisturizing agent in baby products. It is very safe for topical use on babies 0-6 months with minimal risk of irritation.

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.
