Ingredients Analysis (15 found)

Water
⚠️5/10
Water is safe for baby skin and is used as a solvent or base in most baby care products
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
Isononanoate
⚠️4/10
Isononanoate is not a recognized ingredient name and may be a misreading or typo. Cannot assess safety without clear identification.
Confidence: HIGH
Cetearyl Sulfate
⚠️4/10
Cetearyl Sulfate is not a recognized cosmetic or topical ingredient. It may be a misreading or typo of Cetearyl Alcohol or Sodium Lauryl Sulfate.
Confidence: HIGH
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
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
Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride
1/10
For toddlers (1–2 years): This is a gentle, lightweight oil used in many baby lotions and wipes. It is generally safe on normal toddler skin and has a very low safety concern.
Confidence: HIGH
Dehydroacetic Acid
1/10
For toddlers (1-2 years), this preservative is generally low risk when used in normal amounts in products made for children.
Confidence: HIGH
Glycerin
1/10
For toddlers (1-2 years), glycerin is commonly used and considered low risk when included in normal baby products like lotions, wipes, and diaper creams. It helps skin stay hydrated and is rarely a problem.
Confidence: HIGH
Isopropyl Glyceryl Stearate
1/10
Isopropyl Glyceryl Stearate is an emollient and skin conditioning agent commonly used in baby products. It is generally safe and non-irritating for topical use on babies aged 1-2 years.
No Known Risk - Isopropyl Glyceryl Stearate is a common emollient and emulsifier used in topical products with no documented evidence of hormone disruption, organ toxicity, or other risks in babies based on current scientific literature and safety assessments.
Confidence: HIGH
Shea Butter
1/10
Shea Butter is a natural moisturizer commonly used in baby products. It is very safe for 1-2 year olds and helps protect and hydrate sensitive skin.
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
Avena Sativa
1/10
For a 1-2 year old (toddler), oat extract is generally gentle and used to calm and comfort skin. It is considered very low risk for cancer or developmental harm, and most children tolerate it well.
No Known Risk - Available safety reviews note only low-level concerns (small risk of allergic reaction and some limits on how it can be used) and say the ingredient is safe for skin products when used within set limits. No higher-risk findings were identified.
Confidence: HIGH
Colloidal Oatmeal
0/10
For toddlers (1–2 years old), colloidal oatmeal is generally very safe. It’s commonly used to calm dry, itchy or irritated skin in babies, toddlers, children and teens, and has a very low risk for serious health problems.
No Known Risk - The ingredient's safety review shows only low-level concerns for cancer, allergies or immune effects, developmental/reproductive harm, and use limits. No hazards above low were identified for topical use in the available review, so no significant health risks were found.
Confidence: HIGH
Tapioca Starch
0/10
Tapioca starch (a plant powder) is generally safe for toddlers (1–2 years) when used on the skin in creams, lotions, or wipes. It is low risk for cancer, allergies, and developmental problems.
Confidence: HIGH
Aqua
0/10
Water is very safe for toddlers (1-2 years old) to have on their skin. It is the main base in wipes and baby lotions and is not considered harmful when used as intended.
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
