Ingredients Analysis (7 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.
Confidence: HIGH
Zinc Oxide
✅1/10
Zinc oxide is very safe for topical use on children 5 years and older, it protects skin and acts as a sunscreen ingredient with low risk of harm
Confidence: HIGH
aloe vera
✅1/10
Organic Aloe Vera is widely used in baby products for soothing and moisturizing and is considered very safe for topical use in children over 5 years
Confidence: HIGH
chamomile
✅1/10
Matricaria Chamomilla is chamomile commonly used for soothing skin in baby products generally safe for 5 plus years
Confidence: HIGH
kaolin
✅1/10
For children 5 years and older (school-age kids and older), kaolin clay used on the skin is usually safe. It’s a gentle, natural clay that soaks up moisture and can calm irritated skin.
No Known Risk - Government safety reviews find kaolin is not expected to be harmful to organs, is a low human-health priority, does not build up in the body, and is not considered an environmental toxin. Some product verification programs do require extra proof before allowing it, but current safety assessments do not identify real health risks for children from topical use.
Confidence: HIGH
tricalcium phosphate
✅1/10
For kids 5 years and older (school-age children), this ingredient is generally safe in skin products. Most safety reviews find little or no long-term health worry. The main thing to watch for is mild irritation, not more serious problems.
No Known Risk - Government and expert reviews do not show clear hazards for tricalcium phosphate. A Canadian health agency classifies it as not expected to be toxic and a low human-health priority. U.S. regulatory notes say it can be allowed in some limited food uses (and list a few specific prohibitions), and a cosmetics review found only possible irritation with the evidence described as unassessed. Together this means there are no proven or elevated risks for typical topical use on children.
Confidence: HIGH
Cornstarch
✅0/10
Pure Cornstarch is very safe for topical use in babies over 5 years as it is a natural absorbent and commonly used in baby powders and wipes.
No Known Risk - Cornstarch is widely used in baby powders and topical products, and current research does not show immediate health concerns for topical use on intact skin. While there is some caution for use on broken skin or in cases of inhalation, for topical use on healthy baby skin, there are no established risks based on available evidence.
