Ingredients Analysis (22 found)

benzocaine
🚫10/10
For toddlers (1–2 years) benzocaine is not safe to use routinely. Authorities have placed strong restrictions on this ingredient and it can cause a serious blood problem in young children.
Banned - Health Canada and the EU Cosmetics Directive list benzocaine as banned or unsafe for use in cosmetics. Those official bans mean regulators found reasons to restrict this ingredient in products applied to the skin.
Cancer - The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) reports limited evidence that benzocaine may be linked to cancer. That means some studies raise concern that long‑term exposure could raise cancer risk.
Absorbed - The ingredient record flags enhanced skin absorption, and agencies (ECHA and the U.S. National Library of Medicine) note limited evidence of dermal toxicity or allergic reactions. This shows benzocaine can get through skin and enter the body, which can matter for small children.
Confidence: HIGH
butane
🚫8/10
For toddlers (1–2 years), butane is not a safe ingredient to use near their face or to spray onto their skin. It can irritate skin, eyes and lungs, may cause allergic skin reactions in some children, and is flammable. Some countries limit its use in cosmetics because of these concerns and because products can be contaminated with harmful impurities.
Banned - Health authorities in Canada and the EU restrict or limit the use, concentration, or manufacture of butane in cosmetics. Those government rules mean butane is not freely allowed at any level in products and may require special limits or controls.
Organ Risk - A national environmental health agency has classified butane as expected to be toxic or harmful to non-reproductive organs and listed it as a high human-health priority. That means repeated or heavy exposure could harm organs like the liver, kidneys, or lungs.
Immune system - An industry safety review found strong evidence that butane can act as a human skin toxicant or allergen. This suggests it can trigger immune reactions, like allergic skin responses, in some people.
Irritant - A cosmetic safety review reports strong evidence that butane can irritate skin, eyes, and lungs. On baby or sensitive skin this may cause redness, stinging, or rashes after contact.
Asthma - Hazard labeling and occupational guidance note lung irritation and hazards from handling butane. Breathing exposure can worsen asthma or cause breathing trouble, especially in children or sensitive people.
Confidence: HIGH
hydrofluorocarbon 152a
🚫8/10
For toddlers (1–2 years) this ingredient is best avoided. It’s a propellant gas sometimes found in sprays and is not meant to be used directly on a child’s skin or breathed in. Toxicology reports link it to problems with the immune system, development, and the thyroid, and some authorities restrict its use in cosmetics.
Banned - State product-safety rules list this chemical as banned or unsafe for use in cosmetics, so governments have restricted its use.
Forever Chemical - This compound belongs to a class of persistent fluorinated chemicals that experts flag as a group of long-lived 'forever' chemicals.
Builds Up - Toxicology reviews report that this chemical is persistent and can accumulate in people and wildlife over time.
Breast Milk - Health reviews note persistence and accumulation in humans, which means it can be found in body tissues and may pass into breast milk.
Immune system - A toxicological review identifies this chemical as a known human immune toxicant or allergen, so it can harm or change immune responses.
Fertility - Authoritative health profiles list this chemical as a known human reproductive and developmental toxin, so it can affect fertility and reproduction.
Brain Development - Scientific toxicology sources call this a developmental toxin in people, which can include effects on early growth and brain development.
Hormones - A toxicology assessment flags this chemical as a possible disruptor of the thyroid and other hormone systems, which can change normal hormonal development.
Confuse Hormones - Experts note this chemical may act like or interfere with natural hormones (a class-wide concern), so it can confuse the body's chemical signals.
Organ Risk - Health reviews and regulatory assessments report possible liver and cardiovascular toxicity in humans or animals after exposure.
Cancer - Toxicology documents list this chemical as a possible human carcinogen based on available evidence.
Absorbed - Product safety notes indicate enhanced skin absorption, so this chemical can get through skin and reach the body.
Environmental - Chemical-class reviews and toxicology profiles show persistence and bioaccumulation, meaning it can harm the environment and wildlife over time.
Long-Term Risk - Because the chemical is persistent, bioaccumulative, and linked to cancer, organ harm, and reproductive effects, it poses risks from long-term exposure.
Confidence: HIGH
alcohol
🚨7/10
Alcohol can cause skin dryness irritation and barrier disruption in babies likely used as a solvent or preservative avoid in baby products
Confidence: HIGH
menthol
🚨6/10
For 1–2 year olds (toddlers): menthol can cool skin and smell strong, but it may cause skin irritation or allergic reactions in some children and its fumes can bother breathing. Because of that, it is not a good choice for everyday products for toddlers.
Immune system - Menthol is identified as a known human allergen and flagged with strong evidence of human toxicant/allergen by regulatory bodies (EU Cosmetics Directive and the U.S. EPA). That means it can trigger allergic or immune reactions when put on the skin.
Irritant - Regulatory assessments list menthol as a human allergen/toxicant, which is linked to skin reactions like redness, stinging, or contact dermatitis—especially when applied topically to sensitive skin.
Eczema - Because menthol is a recognized human allergen (per the EU cosmetics review and U.S. EPA findings), it can trigger or worsen eczema and similar inflammatory skin conditions in susceptible people.
Confidence: MEDIUM
methylparaben
⚠️4/10
For toddlers (1-2 years): methylparaben is commonly used to prevent germs in lotions and creams. Most products use it in small amounts and risk is generally low, but some studies and regulatory reviews have raised concerns about hormone-like effects and a small chance of skin allergy. Toddlers’ skin is more sensitive, so we recommend extra caution.
Hormones - Methylparaben has been found to affect the hormone system. The European Union lists it as a human endocrine disruptor and multiple studies show hormone-like activity, so it may alter normal hormone development in children.
Confuse Hormones - Research and regulatory review note that methylparaben can act like weak hormones in the body. Peer-reviewed studies and regulatory findings show it can mimic or interfere with natural hormone signals.
Immune system - There is moderate evidence that methylparaben can trigger immune or allergic reactions in people. A clinical report found contact urticaria (an allergic skin response), showing it can affect the immune system.
Irritant - Methylparaben has been linked to skin reactions such as contact urticaria. That means it can cause redness, itching, or rashes on sensitive skin, including babies' skin.
Eczema - Because methylparaben can cause allergic skin reactions and contact urticaria, it may trigger or worsen eczema and similar skin conditions in susceptible children.
Banned - Some authorities restrict or limit the use of parabens in certain products. For example, regional regulatory actions and safety opinions have led to limits or bans for use in products for very young children.
Long-Term Risk - Laboratory studies show methylparaben can change gene activity in human cells. Those biochemical changes suggest possible long-term effects with repeated exposure, even if direct outcomes in people are still being studied.
