Confidence: HIGH

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

✅1/10

For toddlers and preschoolers (ages 2-5), this ingredient is very low risk when used on the skin. It works as a gentle, lightweight skin oil and is not known to cause cancer, developmental issues, or strong allergic reactions in typical skincare use.

Confidence: HIGH

Glycerin

✅1/10

For toddlers and young children (2–5 years old), glycerin used in lotions and wipes is generally safe. It helps skin hold moisture and rarely causes harm.

Confidence: HIGH

Octyldodecanol

✅1/10

For toddlers and preschoolers (2–5 years): Octyldodecanol is a common skin softener and is generally low risk. Most children tolerate it well, but some people can get skin or eye irritation.

Confidence: HIGH

Panthenol

✅1/10

Panthenol is generally safe for children aged 2-5 (toddlers and preschoolers). It’s used to hydrate and soothe skin and usually does not cause harm.

No Known Risk - Health and regulatory reviews (including Canadian and U.S. assessments and industry safety panels) find panthenol has no reported hazards above a low level for topical use. It is not expected to harm organs, does not appear to build up in the body or the environment, and common concerns (cancer, allergies, reproductive effects) were rated low. There are some industry notes about safe use levels and a few data gaps, but no higher-level health risks were identified.

Confidence: HIGH

Polyglyceryl-4 Diisostearate

✅1/10

For children aged 2–5 years (toddlers and preschoolers), this ingredient is generally safe in skin creams and lotions. It’s a gentle ingredient used to mix oils and water and is not linked to major risks in the safety data we reviewed.

No Known Risk - Safety reviews for this skin ingredient report low concern across cancer, allergy/immune effects, developmental and reproductive effects, and show no special use restrictions. In plain terms, the available data do not point to any real health risks for typical topical use. If your child has very sensitive skin or a known allergy, patch-test or check with a clinician.

Confidence: HIGH

Polyhydroxystearate

✅1/10

For toddlers and preschoolers (ages 2-5), polyhydroxystearate is generally very low risk when used on the skin in normal amounts. It’s an ingredient that helps keep creams and lotions mixed and stable.

No Known Risk - Current safety reviews report only low-level concerns for cancer, allergies, and reproductive effects, and there are no bans or strong health warnings. A voluntary product-verification program may restrict this ingredient without extra safety proof, but that is about product standards rather than a proven health hazard. Based on available assessments, no real child health risks have been identified.

Confidence: HIGH

Shea Butter

✅1/10

Butyrospermum Parkii Shea Butter is a natural fat used as an emollient in baby products. It is very safe and commonly used in baby lotions and wipes.

No Known Risk - Shea butter is widely used in baby skincare products and is generally considered safe for topical use. There is no strong evidence linking it to irritation, allergies, hormone disruption, or other health risks in babies. Rare allergic reactions may occur, but these are uncommon and not specific to infants. Current research and regulatory guidance do not identify any significant risks for babies when shea butter is used topically.

Confidence: HIGH

Zinc Oxide

✅1/10

Zinc oxide is generally safe for 2 to 5 year olds when used on skin. It acts as a barrier and is used in diaper creams and sunscreens.

Confidence: HIGH

Magnesium Stearate

✅0/10

For toddlers and preschoolers (ages 2–5), magnesium stearate in creams, powders or lotions is generally very low risk. It’s a common ingredient that helps products spread and stay smooth, and safety reviews by regulatory groups find little concern.

No Known Risk - Government and industry safety reviews say this ingredient poses low concern. The U.S. food agency lists it as safe for limited food use, Environment Canada calls it not expected to be toxic and a low human-health priority, and the cosmetic safety panel reviewed it (with some data gaps). Taken together, these sources show no clear health risks for typical topical use.

Confidence: HIGH

Water

✅0/10

For children aged 2-5 years (toddlers and preschoolers), plain water used on the skin is very safe. Water by itself does not cause harm and is commonly the main ingredient in wipes and lotions.

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.
