Ingredients Analysis (28 found)

fragrance
⚠️5/10
Perfume in baby products can cause skin irritation or allergies in 2-5 year olds. It is likely included for fragrance but should be used with caution.
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
⚠️4/10
For 2–5 year olds (preschool children), this ingredient is usually okay when it’s in products you rinse off, like kids’ shampoos and body washes. A small number of children can get skin irritation or an allergic reaction.
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
stearamidopropyl dimethylamine
⚠️4/10
For children 2–5 years old (toddlers and preschoolers): this ingredient is a hair conditioner. There are some safety concerns mainly about manufacturing impurities and possible irritation or allergic reactions. It is usually lower risk in shampoo-type (rinse-off) products but is not recommended for products that stay on the skin.
Immune system - A formal safety assessment notes this chemical can act as a possible human allergen or toxicant, which means it can trigger allergic reactions or immune responses in some people.
Irritant - Regulatory reviews and peer-reviewed studies report limited evidence of skin and eye irritation, and some animal studies show irritation at low doses, so it can cause redness, stinging, or rash on sensitive skin.
Eczema - Because the ingredient is flagged as a possible allergen and there is evidence of skin irritation, safety reviewers warn it can trigger or worsen eczema and similar skin conditions in sensitive users.
Asthma - Reviews note limited evidence of lung irritation and animal data showing respiratory effects, so inhalation or exposure could worsen breathing issues such as asthma in sensitive children.
Cancer - High-level contamination concerns have been raised for this ingredient, including possible presence of nitrosamines and related amines; industry safety panels recommend limits on impurities because nitrosamines are known carcinogens.
Organ Risk - A major chemical regulator has classified the substance as toxic or harmful to non-reproductive organ systems, indicating possible harm to organs with repeated or high exposures.
Banned - Industry safety reviews and expert panels recommend use restrictions and say it is unsafe for some product types (for example, leave-on products) unless strict impurity and concentration limits are followed, so it is restricted or disallowed in some uses.
Environmental - A national environmental agency lists this chemical as suspected to be toxic to the environment, so it may harm aquatic life or ecosystems if released.
