Ingredients Analysis (19 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

sodium laureth sulfate

⚠️5/10

For toddlers (1-2 years), this ingredient is a common cleanser used in shampoos and body washes. It can irritate sensitive skin or eyes and there are possible contamination byproducts from manufacturing that are a concern, so use with care.

Irritant - A formal safety review (Cosmetic Ingredient Review) found strong evidence that this ingredient can irritate skin, eyes, and lungs in people. That means babies or children may get redness, stinging, or sore eyes if exposed.

Organ Risk - A government health assessment (Environment Canada) classifies this ingredient as likely to be harmful to body organs with a medium human-health priority. Repeated or heavy exposure could affect organs like the liver or kidneys.

Cancer - Safety checks flag the ingredient for contamination by ethylene oxide and 1,4‑dioxane. These contaminants are known cancer-linked chemicals in regulatory and safety assessments, so contamination raises a cancer concern if present.

Confidence: MEDIUM

tea-dodecylbenzenesulfonate

⚠️4/10

For toddlers (1-2 years), this ingredient is not known to cause serious long-term harm, but it is restricted by cosmetic rules and industry reviewers. Toddlers have more sensitive skin, so we should be cautious.

Banned - This ingredient is restricted from some cosmetic uses under EU cosmetics rules. An industry safety review also flags limits on how much can be used and notes data gaps, so regulators and reviewers limit or forbid its use in certain products.

Confidence: MEDIUM

disodium edta

✅3/10

For toddlers (1–2 years): usually low risk when used at the small amounts found in normal skin cleansers and lotions. The main concern is skin or eye irritation, and it can make it easier for other ingredients to pass through the skin, so be careful with young 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

cocamidopropyl hydroxysultaine

✅2/10

For toddlers (1–2 years): usually safe when used in rinse‑off products like shampoo and body wash. Overall harm is low, but there are some concerns about contamination during manufacture and occasional mild skin or eye irritation.

Confidence: MEDIUM

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

ppg-9

✅2/10

For a toddler (1-2 years, baby, young child) PPG-9 is generally considered low risk when it appears in small amounts in skin products. Most safety reviews do not find major long-term risks, but some reviewers note it can sometimes irritate skin, eyes, or lungs.

Confidence: MEDIUM

sodium benzoate

✅2/10

For toddlers (1–2 years old) sodium benzoate is usually low risk when used in small amounts in wipes, lotions or shampoos made for children. It helps prevent germs in products, but can sometimes bother sensitive skin.

Confidence: MEDIUM

carbomer

✅1/10

For a 1-2 year old toddler, Carbomer (a common thickener in lotions and wipes) is generally considered safe for topical use. It’s not linked to cancer or developmental problems at usual levels, but there are some manufacturing-related contamination worries and a small chance of irritation.

Confidence: MEDIUM

dimethiconol

✅1/10

For toddlers (1–2 years), dimethiconol is generally considered low risk when put on the skin. It works like a lightweight silicone that helps smooth and protect skin and is not linked to serious problems at normal use levels.

No Known Risk - Reviews by a cosmetic industry safety panel (CIR) and a European chemicals regulator (ECHA) find only low-level concerns for cancer, allergies, and reproductive effects for normal skin use. The industry reviewers note some data gaps about exact use concentrations, and the European regulator reports limited evidence of environmental toxicity. Because no health concern was rated above “low” for topical use, no specific child health risk labels apply.

Confidence: HIGH

glycerin

✅1/10

For toddlers (1-2 years), glycerin is commonly used and considered low risk when included in normal baby products like lotions, wipes, and diaper creams. It helps skin stay hydrated and is rarely a problem.

Confidence: HIGH

guar hydroxypropyltrimonium chloride

✅1/10

This ingredient is generally safe for toddlers (1-2 years) when used in rinse-off products like baby or toddler shampoo and body wash. Overall risk is low, but young children have more sensitive skin and eyes.

Confidence: HIGH

polyquaternium-10

✅1/10

For toddlers (1–2 years), polyquaternium-10 is usually safe in small amounts in shampoos, conditioners and lotions. Most safety summaries show low concern when it is used at the usual small levels in personal care products.

Confidence: MEDIUM

simmondsia chinensis seed oil

✅1/10

Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil is jojoba oil commonly used as a moisturizer in baby products and is considered very safe for topical use

No Known Risk - Jojoba oil is widely regarded as safe for topical use on babies and is not linked to irritation, hormone disruption, cancer, or other health risks based on current research. It is non-allergenic, non-comedogenic, and does not contain known harmful chemicals. No credible studies have shown significant adverse effects in infants or children when used as directed.

Confidence: HIGH

sodium chloride

✅1/10

Sodium chloride is ordinary salt. For toddlers (1–2 years) it is generally safe in the tiny amounts used in skin products. It is a low-risk ingredient and is not thought to cause long-term harm.

No Known Risk - Regulatory reviews flag no meaningful health hazards for topical use. Food and health authorities list it as safe for limited use, and environmental assessments find it unlikely to harm organs, build up in the body, or damage wildlife. Overall expert sources rate concerns as low across cancer, allergies, development, and use restrictions.

Confidence: HIGH

sodium citrate

✅1/10

For toddlers (1–2 years), sodium citrate in small amounts in wipes or lotions is generally safe. It is low risk for serious harm but can sometimes cause mild irritation, especially on broken or very sensitive skin.

No Known Risk - Reviewed safety information shows only low-level concerns. U.S. food regulators say it is allowed for some food uses, a cosmetic safety panel notes allowed limits and some data gaps but does not show hazards at normal use, and a national environment agency finds it unlikely to harm organs, build up in the body, or persist in the environment. Because no health concern was reported above low, there are no specific risks identified for typical topical use.

Confidence: HIGH

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.
