⚠️5/10

Lavender oil may cause skin irritation or allergic reactions in young children and is not essential in baby care products

Irritant - Lavender oil can cause skin irritation, redness, or rashes, especially on sensitive baby skin, as documented in dermatological studies.

Confidence: HIGH

St. John's Wort extract

✅3/10

Confidence: HIGH

Beeswax

✅2/10

Safe for most toddlers when used on the skin. It helps protect and soften the skin.

Confidence: HIGH

Chickweed extract

✅1/10

For toddlers (1–2 years): Chickweed extract is generally low risk for skin use when used in products made for young children. The ingredient data rates it low for common concerns, but there isn’t much research specifically in toddlers, so stay cautious.

No Known Risk - Based on available ingredient safety assessments for topical use of chickweed extract, only low-level concerns were noted (for cancer, allergies/immunotoxicity, and reproductive effects) and no higher-level hazards or use restrictions were reported. There is no evidence of a real health risk for typical topical use.
