Ingredients Analysis (23 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
Cocamidopropyl Betaine
⚠️5/10
For toddlers (1-2 years old), this ingredient is commonly used in baby shampoos and washes to create foam and help clean. It is moderately safe in rinse-off products when manufacturers control impurities, but it can sometimes cause skin irritation or allergic reactions.
Immune system - Cosmetic safety reviews (Cosmetic Ingredient Review and draft safety reports) report limited evidence that cocamidopropyl betaine can sensitize skin or trigger allergic reactions. That means it can affect the immune system in some people, especially those with sensitive skin.
Irritant - Industry safety assessments note limited evidence of skin sensitization and explicitly warn the ingredient may be unsafe in products left on the skin (not rinsed off). This shows it can cause redness, itching, or irritation for some users.
Eczema - Safety panels and reports observed cases of sensitization and recommend limits on use and product types. Because it can provoke skin reactions, it may trigger or worsen eczema in sensitive children.
Cancer - Regulatory and industry reviews flag contamination concerns for this ingredient, including nitrosamines and related amines. Nitrosamines are known to be carcinogenic, so impurity risks raise a cancer concern unless impurities are controlled as industry reviewers recommend.
Banned - Expert panels and tentative regulatory reports recommend use, concentration, and manufacturing restrictions for this ingredient and note it is unsafe in some product types (leave-on). While not universally banned, it is subject to regulatory or industry limits in some contexts.
Environmental - A national environmental agency (Environment Canada) flagged this ingredient as a suspected environmental toxin, indicating possible harm to ecosystems if released into the environment.
Confidence: HIGH
Benzyl Alcohol
⚠️4/10
For toddlers (1-2 years), benzyl alcohol is commonly used in small amounts in creams and lotions. The biggest concern is that it can cause skin allergies or irritation in some children. At low levels it is often tolerated, but extra care is recommended for young children.
Immune system - Benzyl alcohol is a known human allergen with strong evidence of immune effects. Regulators and scientific reviews list it as an allergenic or immunotoxicant and there are human case reports of allergic reactions, so it can trigger immune responses in children.
Eczema - There are strong reports and regulatory listings showing benzyl alcohol can cause allergic skin reactions. Because of this, it can trigger or make eczema and similar rashes worse on sensitive baby skin.
Irritant - There is documented evidence of skin and eye irritation from benzyl alcohol (including agency evaluations of irritation), so it can cause redness, stinging, or rashes—especially on sensitive or infant skin.
Organ Risk - Government hazard classifications and peer-reviewed sources have identified benzyl alcohol as toxic or harmful to organ systems at some exposures. These classifications indicate repeated or higher exposures could affect organs (for example liver or kidneys).
Confidence: HIGH
Distearyldimonium Chloride
⚠️4/10
For toddlers (1–2 years), this ingredient is not ideal. It can irritate skin and eyes and may cause allergic or breathing reactions in some children. It has also shown concerns in lab and animal studies related to reproduction and cell effects, though those are less certain.
Irritant - This ingredient is officially labeled an irritant by EU hazard rules. That means it can cause skin redness, eye sting, or lung irritation if it touches skin, gets in the eyes, or is breathed in.
Asthma - A clinical asthmagen compilation lists this chemical as a respiratory allergen. People with sensitive airways or asthma could have coughing, wheeze, or breathing trouble if they are exposed.
Immune system - There is moderate evidence that quaternary ammonium compounds like this can trigger allergic or immune reactions. Human exposure records and studies show links to respiratory allergy and other immune effects.
Organ Risk - Reports and studies on similar quaternary ammonium compounds note possible harm to organs (for example, limited eye toxicity) and altered toxic effects in people after exposure. This raises concern with repeated or strong exposure.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Petrolatum
✅3/10
Purified white petrolatum is generally safe for toddlers (1–2 years) when used as a thin, protective layer on small areas of skin.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Sodium Hydroxide
✅3/10
For toddlers (1–2 years), small amounts of this ingredient in finished, well‑formulated products are usually low risk. It becomes dangerous if present at high strength because it can burn or strongly irritate skin and eyes.
Confidence: HIGH
Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer
✅2/10
For toddlers (1–2 years): generally low risk. This ingredient helps thicken creams and wipes and usually stays on the skin surface. Most kids won’t absorb much of it.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Citric Acid
✅2/10
For toddlers (1-2 years), citric acid in normal skin products is usually safe at the low levels used. It helps control product pH and keep products stable. The biggest concern is skin or eye irritation, not long-term disease.
Confidence: HIGH
Coco-Glucoside
✅2/10
For toddlers (1–2 years), Coco‑Glucoside is generally safe. It is a gentle cleanser found in baby and children’s shampoos, body washes, and wipes. Most children do fine with it, but a few can get irritation or an allergic rash.
Confidence: HIGH
Dimethicone
✅2/10
For toddlers (1-2 years), dimethicone is usually safe on the skin. It helps protect and lock in moisture and is commonly used in baby creams and diaper creams. Serious health risks are considered low, but there are some concerns about impurities and environmental persistence raised by government and safety reviewers.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Sodium Benzoate
✅2/10
For toddlers (1–2 years old) sodium benzoate is usually low risk when used in small amounts in wipes, lotions or shampoos made for children. It helps prevent germs in products, but can sometimes bother sensitive skin.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Allantoin
✅1/10
For toddlers (1–2 years), allantoin is usually safe when used on the skin. It helps soothe and protect dry or irritated skin, and serious problems are uncommon.
No Known Risk - Government and industry safety reviews find no evidence that topical use of this ingredient harms organs, builds up in the body, or damages the environment. Reviewers do note some gaps in the safety data and recommend following concentration limits and proper testing for products, but no real hazards were identified for normal skin use.
Confidence: HIGH
Cetyl Alcohol

Glyceryl Oleate
✅1/10
For toddlers (1-2 years), glyceryl oleate is usually safe when used on the skin in normal amounts. It helps moisturizers and creams spread smoothly. Serious health risks are low, but it can cause skin or eye irritation in some children.
Confidence: HIGH
Guar Hydroxypropyltrimonium Chloride
✅1/10
This ingredient is generally safe for toddlers (1-2 years) when used in rinse-off products like baby or toddler shampoo and body wash. Overall risk is low, but young children have more sensitive skin and eyes.
Confidence: HIGH
Isopropyl Palmitate
✅1/10
For toddlers (1–2 years) isopropyl palmitate is commonly used in lotions and wipes and is generally low risk when used in typical products. It is not linked to major long-term health problems, but it can sometimes irritate sensitive skin or contribute to clogged pores.
No Known Risk - Reviews and government assessments did not find health hazards above a low level for normal topical use. Safety panels note use limits and some data gaps, but regulators have called it low priority for human health, do not expect it to build up in the body or the environment, and allow limited food uses. Taken together, current evidence does not show any health risks above low for typical use.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Polyquaternium-10
✅1/10
For toddlers (1–2 years), polyquaternium-10 is usually safe in small amounts in shampoos, conditioners and lotions. Most safety summaries show low concern when it is used at the usual small levels in personal care products.
