Ingredients Analysis (16 found)

Methylisothiazolinone
🚨7/10
Methylisothiazolinone is a preservative that often causes skin allergy or irritation in young children. For toddlers (1-2 years), it is better to avoid it when possible because rashes and allergic reactions have been reported in children.
Immune system - This ingredient is a known skin sensitizer and can trigger immune reactions. Toxicity reviews and safety assessments list strong evidence that it causes allergic reactions in people, and regulators note it as an allergen.
Eczema - There are human case reports of children who developed allergic contact dermatitis after exposure (for example, from baby wipes). These cases show it can start or make eczema and similar rashes worse.
Irritant - Workplace and safety reports show it can irritate skin, eyes, or lungs and act as a skin irritant for some people.
Banned - Government safety opinions and national agencies have restricted or banned its use in cosmetics in some places and set limits on how it may be used, indicating regulatory concern about safety.
Confidence: HIGH
Parfum 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
Hexyl Cinnamal
⚠️5/10
For toddlers (1-2 years): Hexyl Cinnamal is a fragrance chemical that can cause allergic skin reactions and irritation. It is not ideal for regular use on young children’s skin.
Immune system - This ingredient is flagged as an allergen. The EU cosmetics rules list it as a known human allergen, and the European Chemicals Agency shows limited but real evidence of skin and immune system reactions. Because the data mark allergies as a high concern, people (including children) with sensitive skin could get rashes or other allergic responses.
Hormones - Animal studies reviewed by the U.S. EPA found signs of endocrine disruption at moderate doses. That means the chemical can change normal hormone signals in the body, which could be important for growing children even if human evidence is limited.
Organ Risk - The European Chemicals Agency has classified this ingredient as toxic or harmful in some assessments for non-reproductive organs. That suggests repeated or high exposure could hurt organs (for example liver, lungs, or kidneys) even though some other agencies view the risk differently.
Confidence: HIGH
Limonene
⚠️5/10
For toddlers (1–2 years): limonene can cause skin irritation and allergic reactions in some children. It is a moderate concern — not the most dangerous ingredient, but use cautiously.
Immune system - This ingredient is listed as a known human allergen and has multiple regulatory flags for immune-system effects (EU cosmetics and hazard labeling rules, and US regulatory listings). That means it can trigger allergic reactions or other immune effects in some people, including children.
Eczema - Experts and regulatory lists identify this chemical as a skin allergen and sensitizer (EU hazard and cosmetics notices). For babies or kids with sensitive skin or a history of eczema, it can trigger or worsen rash and contact dermatitis.
Irritant - Hazard classifications name this ingredient as a skin and general irritant (EU GHS hazard codes). It can cause redness, stinging, or eye and lung irritation if it touches or is breathed in.
Cancer - The ingredient record flags contamination concerns with formaldehyde. Formaldehyde is classified as a carcinogen by international cancer authorities, so contamination raises a potential cancer-related risk if present.
Builds Up - Some environmental assessments and peer-reviewed studies list this chemical as persistent and bioaccumulative in wildlife (OSPAR and scientific literature), meaning it can build up in the environment and animals over time.
Environmental - Regulatory hazard listings and ecological reviews note possible harm to wildlife and the environment (EU hazard codes and environmental assessments). This means its release or repeated use can be harmful to ecosystems.
Confidence: HIGH
CI 15985 FD&C Yellow M
⚠️5/10
Yellow 6 is a synthetic dye used for color. It may cause skin irritation or allergies in sensitive infants. Not essential in baby products.
Irritant - Yellow 6 (Sunset Yellow FCF) has been reported to cause skin irritation in sensitive individuals, especially with topical exposure.
Cancer - Some studies have raised concerns about the potential carcinogenicity of Yellow 6, with animal studies showing tumor formation at high doses, though evidence in humans is limited.
Banned - Yellow 6 is banned or restricted in some countries due to health concerns, including Norway and Finland in the past.
Confidence: HIGH
Lauramidopropyl Betaine
⚠️4/10
For toddlers (1-2 years), this ingredient is generally considered OK in rinse-off products like baby shampoos and body washes. It can sometimes cause mild irritation or rare allergic reactions. The bigger concern is possible contamination during manufacturing, so product quality matters.
Immune system - An expert safety review noted limited evidence that this ingredient can cause immune or allergic reactions. The same safety panel flagged allergies and immune effects as a concern (rated above low), so people with sensitive skin or known allergies could react.
Irritant - The safety assessment and expert report list limited evidence of allergy and skin reactions tied to this ingredient and related compounds. That means it can cause redness, itch, or contact dermatitis in some people, especially on sensitive baby skin.
Banned - Cosmetic safety reviewers and a product verification program have placed restrictions on use and require limits or proof for including this ingredient in certified products. An expert panel specifically recommended use or concentration limits, which signals regulatory caution.
Long-Term Risk - The ingredient record flags high contamination concerns: specific impurities (for example, 3‑dimethylaminopropylamine and related amines) were identified. Impurities can create risks over time with repeated exposure, so long-term safety depends on manufacturing controls.
Confidence: HIGH
Linalool
⚠️4/10
For toddlers (1–2 years), linalool can cause skin allergy or irritation. It is safer than for newborns but still not ideal in daily leave-on baby products.
Immune system - This ingredient is listed as a known human allergen and a possible immune-system toxicant in official cosmetic safety reviews (European cosmetics rules) and is flagged with strong evidence by the U.S. regulator. That means it can trigger allergic reactions or immune responses in some children.
Irritant - Official cosmetic guidance requires labeling for this ingredient because it can cause allergic skin reactions. The safety reviews identify it as a human allergen, so it can cause redness, itching, or rashes on sensitive baby skin.
Eczema - Because this ingredient is a known allergen and can provoke skin reactions, it may trigger or make eczema and similar skin conditions worse in susceptible children.
Cancer - A contamination concern was specifically flagged for formaldehyde being associated with this ingredient. Formaldehyde is recognized in safety summaries as a harmful contaminant linked to cancer risk, so contamination raises a cancer-related concern.
Confidence: HIGH
Sodium Trideceth Sulfate
⚠️4/10
For toddlers (1-2 years old) this ingredient is a soap-like cleanser that is generally low risk for most direct health effects but can be drying or irritating if used often or at strong concentrations. There is a separate concern about manufacturing contamination (small amounts of ethylene oxide and 1,4‑dioxane) reported by ingredient reviewers.
Cancer - The ingredient report flags high contamination concerns for ethylene oxide and 1,4‑dioxane being present as impurities. Those two contaminants are linked to cancer by public health authorities, so their possible presence in this ingredient is a real cancer risk if children are exposed.
Long-Term Risk - Because the ingredient can carry harmful impurities and industry guidance calls for limits on impurities and manufacturing methods, repeated use over time could raise long-term health risks. The ingredient report specifically notes high contamination concerns and cites industry review recommending controls on impurities.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Mel Honey
⚠️4/10
Mel Honey is not a recognized ingredient name it may be a misreading or typo possibly referring to honey which is not typical in shampoo or bodywash
Confidence: HIGH
Phenoxyethanol
✅3/10
For toddlers (1–2 years) phenoxyethanol is usually safe in skin products when used at the low levels manufacturers follow (around 1% or less). It helps prevent germs in creams and lotions. The main issue is that it can sometimes cause skin irritation or, rarely, allergic reactions.
Confidence: HIGH
Caramel
✅2/10
Caramel is a colorant often used for appearance and is generally considered safe for topical use in baby products
No Known Risk - Caramel, when used topically, is generally considered safe and does not have evidence linking it to skin irritation, hormone disruption, cancer, or other health risks in babies. There are no studies or regulatory warnings indicating topical caramel poses a risk to infants or children.
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
PEG-150 Distearate
✅2/10
For toddlers (1-2 years) this ingredient is usually low risk. It works as a gentle mixing agent in creams and lotions. The main worry is not the ingredient itself but possible small amounts of manufacturing impurities that should be removed before the product is sold.
Confidence: HIGH
Propanediol
✅2/10
For toddlers (1–2 years), propanediol is usually low risk when used in normal amounts in skincare. It helps products stay smooth and hold moisture. Some children may get mild redness or stinging, so watch your child the first few times you use it.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Polyquaternium-11
✅1/10
For toddlers (1-2 years), this ingredient is generally low risk when used in normal skin or hair products. It’s a conditioning ingredient that mostly stays on the surface and is not known to cause cancer or serious developmental harm.
No Known Risk - A government review found this ingredient is not expected to be toxic to organs, and it is not likely to build up in the body or harm the environment. An industry safety panel notes limits on how it is used and some gaps in data, but no higher-level health concerns (like cancer, hormone or developmental risks) were identified. Based on those reviews, there are no known health risks above low concern.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Aqua Water
✅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.
