Ingredients Analysis (34 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
Isopropyl Alcohol
🚨6/10
Safety information not properly formatted for easy understanding
Irritant - This ingredient is known to irritate skin, eyes, and lungs. It is officially labeled as an eye and general irritant under EU hazard labeling, and studies describe strong irritation from exposure.
Organ Risk - There are reports of systemic harm after exposure, including cases of intoxication and serious lung problems. Government assessments classify it as toxic or harmful and animal studies show toxic effects at moderate doses.
Absorbed - Evidence shows isopropyl alcohol can be taken up through the skin and can boost how other substances get through the skin. A clinical report and lab studies note topical absorption and a penetration-enhancing effect.
Asthma - Workplace studies link repeated breathing of alcohol vapors to industrial bronchitis and other respiratory harm. Case reports also show severe breathing problems after chronic inhalation, so it can worsen breathing conditions.
Long-Term Risk - Because of documented occupational harms and government listings that give it a medium human-health priority, repeated or long-term exposure could cause health problems over time.
Confidence: HIGH
Stearalkonium Chloride
🚨6/10
Safety information not properly formatted for easy understanding
Immune system - Strong human evidence shows this chemical can act as an allergen and harm the immune or respiratory system (listed in an asthmagen compilation and by the Association of Occupational and Environmental Clinics, and supported in peer‑reviewed studies). That means it can cause allergic reactions in people, including children.
Asthma - This ingredient is listed as an asthmagen and a respiratory toxicant by occupational/clinical sources (AEOC compilation and AOEC) and in the scientific literature, so it can trigger or worsen breathing problems such as asthma.
Irritant - There is strong human allergen evidence from clinical and peer‑reviewed sources that this substance can cause skin reactions. On sensitive baby skin this may show up as redness, itching, or rash.
Banned - Regulatory bodies restrict or limit use of this material in cosmetics (for example under the EU Cosmetics Directive), and industry safety panels note specific use‑and‑concentration controls, meaning some countries or product types disallow or tightly limit it.
Organ Risk - Non‑reproductive organ system concerns have been flagged — government assessment and recent studies note possible toxic effects on organs after exposure to related quaternary ammonium disinfectants, so repeated or high exposures could harm organs such as the lungs or other systems.
Environmental - A government environmental agency has identified this chemical as suspected to be an environmental toxin, so it may pose risks to wildlife or ecosystems if released.
Confidence: HIGH
Behentrimonium Chloride
⚠️5/10
For toddlers (1-2 years), this conditioning ingredient is moderately safe but not risk-free. It can cause skin or eye irritation and some children may be allergic or have breathing reactions. Some official reviews allow its use only with limits.
Immune system - A specialist list of asthma-causing chemicals flags this ingredient as a human allergen, and reviews of quaternary ammonium compounds note links to immune or allergy effects. That means it can trigger allergic reactions in some people.
Asthma - An asthmagen compilation lists this chemical as a cause of respiratory allergy and there is limited evidence it can harm breathing. Kids with sensitive lungs or asthma could be affected.
Banned - This ingredient is subject to government limits: the EU cosmetics rules list restrictions and a cosmetic safety panel says it is allowed only with limits. That shows some countries regulate or limit its use.
Organ Risk - Some toxicology reviews and human-focused studies raise concern that quaternary ammonium compounds can affect organs. This ingredient has been noted as a possible human toxicant in those reports.
Fertility - Animal studies (mouse studies) found lower fertility after exposure to similar quaternary ammonium disinfectants, showing effects on male and female reproductive systems at moderate doses.
Hormones - Laboratory research found that quaternary ammonium compounds can interfere with cholesterol and hormone pathways, which suggests this ingredient may disrupt normal hormone processes.
Environmental - A government environmental review flags this class of chemicals as a suspected environmental toxin, so it may harm aquatic life or ecosystems if released widely.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Water Aqua
⚠️5/10
Water Aqua is purified water used as a solvent and base in baby shampoos and conditioners. It is very safe and essential for formulation.
Confidence: HIGH
Alcohol
⚠️5/10

Lactic Acid
⚠️4/10
For toddlers (1–2 years) lactic acid is sometimes used safely in skin products at low levels, but it can irritate sensitive skin and make skin absorb more of other ingredients. It is safer here than for younger babies, but still needs caution.
Banned - This ingredient is restricted in some places and must follow rules about how it is made and used. A Canadian safety list and government guidance limit its use, and industry safety panels set rules on how much can be in products.
Absorbed - This acid can help other things pass through the skin and can get into the body more easily. A safety review paper lists it as a penetration enhancer, so it may raise how much of a product is absorbed.
Sun Burn - Industry safety guidance says it can raise the skin's sensitivity to the sun unless products are made to prevent that or directions tell you to use sun protection.
Confidence: MEDIUM
