Ingredients Analysis (17 found)

Fragrance

⚠️5/10

Perfume is a common ingredient in baby products for scent but can cause irritation or allergies in sensitive children aged 5 and above. Use 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.

✅3/10

Confidence: HIGH

Citric Acid

✅2/10

For children 5 years and older (school-age kids, tweens, teens), citric acid in everyday skincare like wipes, shampoos and lotions is usually safe when used at the low levels found in those products. It may sting if it gets in the eyes or is placed on sore or broken skin.

Confidence: HIGH

Sodium Hydroxide

✅2/10

For school-age children (5 years and older): when sodium hydroxide is in regular skin products it is usually at very low levels and is safe if the product is made for skin and has a skin-friendly pH. Sodium hydroxide itself is a strong chemical that can burn if concentrated.

Confidence: HIGH

Acrylates

✅2/10

✅0/10

No Known Risk - Regulatory reviews (Environment Canada) find plain water is not expected to be toxic, not bioaccumulative, and not an environmental toxin.
