Ingredients Analysis (27 found)

Deionized Water
⚠️5/10
Deionized water is purified water used as a solvent or base in topical products. It is very safe and non-irritating for 2-5 year old babies in sunscreens.
Confidence: HIGH
Ethyl Lauroyl Arginate HCL
⚠️4/10
For children ages 2–5 (toddlers and preschoolers), this ingredient looks low risk for cancer, allergies, and effects on development based on ingredient listings, but it is also subject to regulatory restrictions. Because there is little child-specific testing and it is restricted in some cosmetic rules, it's safer to avoid regular use on young children when possible.
Banned - This ingredient is listed as restricted for use in cosmetics under the EU Cosmetics Directive. That means its use, concentration, or how it is made may be limited or not allowed in some countries, and makers must meet special rules before putting it in products.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Alaria Esculenta Extract
3/10
For toddlers and preschoolers (ages 2-5), this seaweed extract is generally low risk for skin irritation, but there are real concerns that it can carry traces of heavy metals and iodine from the sea. Those contaminants are the main reason to be careful.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Green Tea Leaf Extract
2/10
For kids aged 2–5 (toddlers and young children), green tea leaf extract in skin products is usually safe at the low levels used in creams and lotions. It can help protect skin and calm irritation, but a small number of children may be sensitive to it.
Confidence: HIGH
Propanediol
2/10
For children aged 2–5 years (toddlers and preschoolers), propanediol is generally low risk when used in normal amounts in creams, lotions or wipes. However, it can sometimes cause skin irritation and may help other ingredients pass through the skin more easily, so it needs a little extra caution with young children.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Turmeric Root Extract
2/10
For toddlers and young children (2-5 years), turmeric root extract on the skin is usually safe and low risk. It is not linked to cancer or allergies in the available data, but a small number of studies show possible mild irritation and, at very high doses in animals, effects on organs or reproduction.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice
1/10
For children ages 2–5 (toddlers and preschoolers): aloe vera leaf juice is usually safe on the skin when used in normal, child-friendly products. A small number of people can get irritation or an allergic reaction.
Confidence: HIGH
Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride
1/10

Confidence: HIGH
Coconut Oil
1/10
Coconut oil is widely used in baby care for moisturizing and is generally safe for 2-5 years unless allergic
No Known Risk - Coconut oil is widely used topically for babies and is generally considered safe. There is no strong evidence linking it to irritation, allergies, hormone disruption, cancer, or other health risks when used on healthy baby skin. Rare allergic reactions are possible, but not common enough to warrant a risk label based on current research.
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
Jojoba Esters
1/10
Jojoba esters are a plant-based moisturizing ingredient that is usually safe for children ages 2–5 (toddlers and preschoolers). Most safety reviews find low risk for cancer, allergic problems, or effects on growth and development.
No Known Risk - Reviewed safety assessments by an industry safety panel show low concern for cancer, allergies, developmental or reproductive harm, and no clear evidence of irritation or long-term organ harm from topical use. The panel notes that safety conclusions rely on reported use concentrations and that manufacturers should provide substantiation of safe levels, but current available evaluations do not identify real health risks for children using this ingredient on skin.
Confidence: HIGH
Mica
1/10
Mica is a mineral used to add sparkle or color. For children aged 2–5 (toddlers and preschoolers), mica on the skin in creams, lotions, or solid makeup is generally low risk.

Confidence: HIGH

No Known Risk - Available safety assessments for topical use show low concern across cancer, allergies/immunotoxicity, and developmental/reproductive effects, and do not list use restrictions. There is little evidence these uses harm organs, hormones, or cause buildup in the body at normal topical concentrations, so no specific health risks have been identified for typical skin use.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Polyglyceryl-3 Oleate
1/10
For toddlers and preschoolers (2–5 years), Polyglyceryl-3 Oleate is generally safe. Long-term health risks are considered low. The main remaining issue is that it can sometimes irritate skin, eyes, or breathing in sensitive people.
No Known Risk - Available safety reviews give this ingredient a low hazard profile. A cosmetic ingredient review noted possible skin, eye, or lung irritation but described the evidence as unassessed or weak. There is no clear evidence of more serious harms from normal topical use, so overall it is considered low risk.
Confidence: HIGH
Polyhydroxystearic Acid

Confidence: HIGH

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

Based on that safety summary, there are no known health risks for typical topical use. Note: some product‑verification programs may require extra documentation before allowing this ingredient, but that is a regulatory/verification restriction rather than a tested health hazard.
