Ingredients Analysis (9 found)

fragrance

🚨6/10

Perfume in baby products can cause skin irritation or allergic reactions in 1-2 year olds. It is often added for scent but should be used cautiously.

Irritant - Fragrance mixtures often contain chemicals that can cause skin irritation, redness, or rashes, especially on sensitive baby skin.

Eczema - Fragrances are known triggers for eczema flare-ups and can worsen symptoms in babies with sensitive or atopic skin.

Asthma - Fragrance chemicals can release volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that may worsen asthma or breathing issues in babies and children.

Hormones - Some fragrance ingredients, such as certain phthalates, are suspected endocrine disruptors that may interfere with hormone development.

Absorbed - Certain fragrance chemicals can be absorbed through the skin and detected in the bloodstream, raising concerns for systemic exposure.

Breast Milk - Some fragrance components, including phthalates, have been detected in breast milk, indicating they can pass from mother to baby.

Banned - Some fragrance ingredients are banned or restricted in the EU and other countries due to health concerns.

Builds Up - Certain fragrance chemicals, such as some phthalates and musks, can accumulate in the body over time with repeated exposure.

Long-Term Risk - Long-term exposure to some fragrance chemicals has been linked to chronic health effects, including hormone disruption and allergic diseases.

Confidence: HIGH

vitamin A

⚠️5/10

Potential skin irritation and increased absorption in young skin, risk of systemic excess with prolonged use. Likely present as retinyl ester antioxidant in lotions

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

Lanolin

✅2/10

Lanolin is generally safe for babies over 1 year but may cause allergic reactions in some sensitive individuals used as a moisturizer or skin protectant

Confidence: HIGH

paraffin

✅2/10

For toddlers (1-2 years) paraffin used on the skin is usually low risk and is commonly found in creams and ointments as a moisturizer. It is considered low concern for cancer and allergies, but some studies and government reviews note it can build up in body tissues over time, so we stay cautious.

Confidence: HIGH

Petrolatum

✅1/10

For toddlers (1-2 years), mineral oil used on the skin is usually safe and works well to help dry skin. Most everyday, cosmetic-grade mineral oils are low risk for this age.

Confidence: MEDIUM

cod liver oil

✅1/10

For toddlers (1-2 years), topical cod liver oil is generally low risk. Government reviews find it unlikely to cause poisoning or long-term harm. However, some children can get skin irritation or an allergic reaction.

No Known Risk - Available safety notes rate cancer, allergy, reproductive, and use-restriction concerns as low for topical use. Environment Canada classifies cod liver oil as not expected to be toxic, a low human-health priority, and not suspected to be an environmental toxin. Taken together, these findings show no identified health risks for topical use.

Confidence: MEDIUM

microcrystalline wax

✅1/10

For toddlers (1-2 years), microcrystalline wax is usually low risk when used on the skin in normal amounts. It helps thicken and moisturize products. Some government reviews and lab studies note that related waxy petroleum components can build up in body tissues, but direct harm at typical skin use in toddlers is considered low.

Confidence: HIGH

vitamin D

✅1/10

For toddlers (1–2 years old) topical vitamin D in normal skincare amounts is usually low risk. However, some countries put limits on how it can be used in cosmetics, so it’s important to pick child-friendly products and avoid high-strength or medicine-type vitamin D creams.

Confidence: HIGH

mineral oil

✅1/10

Mineral oil is widely used in baby products as a moisturizer and is considered very safe for topical use in 1-2 year olds
