Ingredients Analysis (12 found)

Eucalyptus Globulus Leaf Oil

🚨7/10

For 1-2 year olds (toddlers) this oil can cause skin allergies and breathing irritation. It is not considered safe to use undiluted on young children and should be treated with caution in products for toddlers.

Immune system - This oil is linked to allergic and immune reactions. It is listed as a human allergen in the EU cosmetics rules, with case reports and agency reviews showing possible skin sensitization and allergic responses. National and international safety reviews note limited but real evidence of dermal allergy, so it can cause allergic reactions in some children.

Banned - Use of this ingredient is restricted in some places. Health Canada limits its use in cosmetics, and safety reviewers say it may only be safe with concentration or use limits. Because of those restrictions, some product certification programs do not allow it without extra safety proof.

Absorbed - Safety reviewers identify this oil as a penetration enhancer, meaning it can increase how much reaches deeper skin or the bloodstream. That raises the chance that this ingredient, or other nearby ingredients, could be absorbed into a child’s body.

Confidence: HIGH

Alcohol Denatured

🚨7/10

Safety information not properly formatted for easy understanding

Organ Risk - A government health agency reviewed this chemical and listed it as likely to be toxic or harmful to human health and gave it a medium concern for people. That means repeated or heavy exposure could hurt organs (for example liver or lungs) if someone gets enough of it over time.

Absorbed - Lab and animal studies show denatured alcohol can act as a penetration enhancer. In other words, it can help other chemicals pass through skin more easily, and it can increase how much gets into the body when used on skin (shown in mouse and rat studies). This raises the chance of chemicals getting into a baby’s bloodstream when products contain it.

Long-Term Risk - Regulators and industry reviews note this ingredient is used in many places (including some food uses) and that safety assessments rely on limits and have data gaps. Because people can meet this chemical from several products and sources, small exposures can add up over time and increase long-term risk.

Confidence: HIGH

Thyme Oil

🚨7/10

Thyme oil can cause skin irritation and allergic reactions in young children and contains compounds not recommended for baby skin likely used for fragrance or antimicrobial effect

Confidence: HIGH

Spearmint Oil

🚨6/10

Spearmint oil can cause skin irritation and allergic reactions in young children likely used for fragrance or soothing effect

Irritant - Spearmint oil contains compounds like carvone and limonene that can cause skin irritation, especially on sensitive baby skin.

Confidence: HIGH

Lavender

⚠️5/10

Lavender can cause skin irritation or allergic reactions in babies and may have mild hormonal effects used for fragrance

Irritant - Lavender oil can cause skin irritation, redness, or rashes, especially on sensitive baby skin or when used undiluted.

Hormones - Some studies suggest lavender oil may have hormone-disrupting effects, such as acting as a weak estrogen mimic, which could potentially interfere with hormone development in babies.

Confuse Hormones - There is evidence that topical lavender oil can act as an endocrine disruptor, confusing the body's natural hormone signals, particularly in young children.

Confidence: MEDIUM

Lavandula Angustifolia

⚠️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.

Hormones - Some studies have suggested that topical lavender oil may have hormone-disrupting effects, such as prepubertal gynecomastia in boys, indicating a potential risk for hormone disruption in babies.

Confidence: HIGH

Mentha Spicata

⚠️5/10

Mentha Spicata is spearmint oil which may cause skin irritation or sensitization in babies likely used for fragrance

Irritant - Spearmint oil and extracts can cause skin irritation, especially on sensitive baby skin, due to the presence of menthol and other volatile compounds.

Confidence: MEDIUM

Thymus Vulgaris

⚠️4/10

For toddlers (1–2 years), thyme extract is usually low risk in small amounts, but some children can get skin irritation or allergic rashes. Because younger children have more sensitive skin than older kids, we recommend being careful.

Immune system - This extract is linked to allergic reactions and immune effects. A European cosmetics review lists it as a human allergen/toxicant, and the European Chemicals Agency notes evidence of skin allergy, so it can trigger immune responses when put on skin.

Irritant - There is evidence of dermal toxicity and allergic skin reactions from regulatory reviews. That means it can cause skin redness, itching, or rashes in sensitive people, including children.

Eczema - Because the ingredient can cause allergic skin reactions, it may start or make eczema and similar rashes worse. European authorities have flagged limited but real dermal allergy risks that support this concern.

Confidence: HIGH

Flower Oil

⚠️4/10

Cannot determine what Flower Oil refers to and it may be a misreading or typo so safety cannot be assured

Confidence: LOW

Sugarcane Alcohol

✅3/10

For toddlers (1-2 years), ethanol (alcohol) in small amounts on the skin is usually low risk but can dry or irritate young skin and can help other ingredients soak in more easily.

Confidence: MEDIUM

Marjoram Leaf Oil

✅1/10

For toddlers (1–2 years) marjoram leaf oil is generally low risk, but because it is an essential oil some children can get skin irritation or an allergic reaction.

No Known Risk - Regulatory reviews find no clear health hazards for normal use. The U.S. FDA lists this oil as allowed for limited use in food, and Environment Canada does not expect it to cause organ harm or to be an environmental toxin. There is no stronger evidence in the available regulatory notes to show real danger from typical topical use.

Confidence: HIGH

Origanum Majorana

✅1/10

For toddlers (1-2 years old), marjoram extract is generally low risk when used on the skin in small amounts. It is usually safe but some very sensitive children may get mild irritation.

No Known Risk - Safety reviews for this topical ingredient found only low-level concerns for cancer, allergies/immune effects, and developmental or reproductive effects. No moderate or high hazards were identified for these endpoints, so there are no specific health risks flagged for children based on the available data. Some product-verification programs may still limit its use unless makers provide extra safety information, but that is a policy restriction rather than evidence of harm.

Confidence: HIGH
