Ingredients Analysis (25 found)

Lavandula Angustifolia

⚠️5/10

Lavender flower oil can cause skin irritation or allergic reactions in young children and is used for fragrance

Irritant - Lavender oil can cause skin irritation, redness, or rashes, especially on sensitive baby skin, as documented in dermatological studies.

Hormones - Some studies have suggested that topical lavender oil may have hormone-disrupting effects, such as prepubertal gynecomastia in boys, indicating a potential risk for hormone disruption in babies.

Confidence: HIGH

Orange Essential Oil

⚠️5/10

Orange oil can cause skin irritation or allergic reactions in young children and is often used for fragrance

Irritant - Orange oil contains limonene and other citrus compounds that can cause skin irritation, redness, or rashes, especially on sensitive baby skin.

Sun Burn - Orange oil can increase photosensitivity, making skin more prone to sunburn when exposed to sunlight after application.

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

Lavender Oil

⚠️4/10

For children aged 2–5 years (toddlers and preschoolers), lavender oil is usually low risk but not necessary. It can sometimes irritate the skin or, rarely, be linked to hormone-related concerns in children in case reports.

Hormones - There are medical case reports and laboratory studies that link topical lavender oil to hormone changes in children, including early breast development and small breast tissue in boys. These findings show the oil can affect normal hormone development in young children.

Confuse Hormones - Research studies found that lavender oil can act like estrogen in lab tests and in reported clinical cases. That means the oil may mimic or confuse the body’s natural hormone signals.

Absorbed - Cases of hormone effects after skin use mean the oil can get through skin and reach the body. Clinical reports showing systemic effects support that topical lavender oil can be absorbed into the bloodstream.
