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.

Hydrated Silica

✅1/10

For a 1-2 year old toddler, hydrated silica used on the skin in the small amounts found in most baby products is generally low risk. It’s often added to cleansers, creams and toothpastes as a mild scrub or thickener. Toddlers' skin and behavior (hands in mouth) mean we take a bit more care than with older children.

Confidence: MEDIUM

For toddlers (1-2 years) hydrolyzed corn starch is generally safe to use on the skin. It is a gentle, food-derived ingredient used to thicken and condition skin and has only low-level safety concerns in public safety reviews.

No Known Risk - Available safety information shows low concern for cancer, allergies/immune effects, developmental or reproductive harm, and use restrictions for topical use. A cosmetic industry safety review notes only routine recommendations (limits on impurities or concentrations) rather than a health hazard. Based on this, no meaningful health risks have been identified for normal topical use of this ingredient.
