Ingredients Analysis (25 found)

methylisothiazolinone
🚨7/10
For school-age children (5 years and older), this ingredient can cause allergic skin reactions in some kids. Many safety reviews and government opinions note it is a common cause of contact allergy. Overall risk is lower than for babies but still important, especially for children with eczema or very sensitive skin.
Immune system - This ingredient is a known skin sensitizer and can trigger immune reactions. Toxicity reviews and safety assessments list strong evidence that it causes allergic reactions in people, and regulators note it as an allergen.
Eczema - There are human case reports of children who developed allergic contact dermatitis after exposure (for example, from baby wipes). These cases show it can start or make eczema and similar rashes worse.
Irritant - Workplace and safety reports show it can irritate skin, eyes, or lungs and act as a skin irritant for some people.
Banned - Government safety opinions and national agencies have restricted or banned its use in cosmetics in some places and set limits on how it may be used, indicating regulatory concern about safety.
Confidence: HIGH
peppermint oil
🚨6/10
Peppermint oil can cause skin irritation and sensitization in children especially in topical products like shampoo and bodywash for 5 plus years old.
Confidence: HIGH
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
mentha piperita oil
⚠️5/10
Peppermint oil can cause skin irritation or allergic reactions in children and is often used for fragrance or cooling effect
Irritant - Peppermint oil is known to cause skin irritation, redness, and rashes, especially on sensitive baby skin due to its menthol content.
Asthma - The strong menthol vapors from peppermint oil can trigger or worsen breathing issues, including asthma, in sensitive children and infants.
Absorbed - Essential oils like peppermint oil can be absorbed through the skin, and babies have a higher skin absorption rate, increasing systemic exposure.
Confidence: HIGH
methylchloroisothiazolinone
⚠️5/10
For children aged 5 and up (kids, school-age children, preteens and teens): this ingredient can cause allergic skin reactions. The risk is lower than for babies and toddlers but is still real — especially in leave-on products like creams and wipes.
Immune system - There is moderate to strong evidence this chemical can trigger immune reactions in the skin. Human reviews and safety assessments report it as a skin allergen, and case reports include children with allergic contact dermatitis after exposure.
Eczema - Documented cases show this ingredient caused allergic contact dermatitis in babies (for example, reactions linked to baby wipes), and industry safety reviews list strong evidence of skin allergy risk—so it can trigger or worsen eczema in sensitive children.
Irritant - Reports and workplace health evaluations describe it as a possible skin, eye, or lung irritant and skin sensitizer, so it can cause redness, itching, or rashes on sensitive baby skin.
Banned - Several government reviews and safety opinions restrict or prohibit its use in some cosmetics (for example, actions and limits noted by national health authorities and regulatory safety panels), so it is banned or tightly limited in some countries or product types.
Absorbed - Safety notes flag enhanced skin absorption for this ingredient, which means it can get through the skin more readily and reach the body after topical use.
Builds Up - While some regulatory assessments report low persistence, other reviews raise moderate concern about persistence and accumulation; because of mixed findings, there is a real chance it could build up with repeated exposure.
