Ingredients Analysis (28 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
stearamidopropyl dimethylamine
⚠️5/10
For toddlers (1-2 years): this ingredient is used in hair and skin products but has some safety flags. It can cause irritation or allergic reactions in some people, and experts recommend limits or avoiding it in products that stay on the skin. There are also concerns about certain impurities. Because of these issues, it’s better to be cautious with toddlers.
Immune system - A formal safety assessment notes this chemical can act as a possible human allergen or toxicant, which means it can trigger allergic reactions or immune responses in some people.
Irritant - Regulatory reviews and peer-reviewed studies report limited evidence of skin and eye irritation, and some animal studies show irritation at low doses, so it can cause redness, stinging, or rash on sensitive skin.
Eczema - Because the ingredient is flagged as a possible allergen and there is evidence of skin irritation, safety reviewers warn it can trigger or worsen eczema and similar skin conditions in sensitive users.
Asthma - Reviews note limited evidence of lung irritation and animal data showing respiratory effects, so inhalation or exposure could worsen breathing issues such as asthma in sensitive children.
Cancer - High-level contamination concerns have been raised for this ingredient, including possible presence of nitrosamines and related amines; industry safety panels recommend limits on impurities because nitrosamines are known carcinogens.
Organ Risk - A major chemical regulator has classified the substance as toxic or harmful to non-reproductive organ systems, indicating possible harm to organs with repeated or high exposures.
Banned - Industry safety reviews and expert panels recommend use restrictions and say it is unsafe for some product types (for example, leave-on products) unless strict impurity and concentration limits are followed, so it is restricted or disallowed in some uses.
Environmental - A national environmental agency lists this chemical as suspected to be toxic to the environment, so it may harm aquatic life or ecosystems if released.
Confidence: MEDIUM
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
dicetyldimonium chloride
⚠️4/10
For toddlers (1–2 years) this ingredient looks mostly low risk for long-term harms, but it has a moderate chance of causing allergic skin reactions or breathing problems in sensitive children. That means it may be okay in some products, but it deserves caution.
Asthma - A professional asthmagen listing (Asthmagen compilation - AEOC exposures codes) reports strong human evidence that this ingredient acts as an allergen. That means it can trigger breathing problems or asthma attacks in sensitive children or people who breathe it in or have skin contact.
Immune system - This ingredient has a moderate concern for allergies and immunotoxicity and is described as a human toxicant or allergen with strong evidence in the asthmagen compilation. This suggests it can cause allergic reactions or affect the immune system in sensitive children.
Confidence: MEDIUM
