Ingredients Analysis (16 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

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

disodium edta

✅2/10

For children aged 5 and older (school-age kids), Disodium EDTA is generally low risk in the small amounts used in skin products. It is not tied to cancer or developmental harm in the available data. The most important issue is that it can irritate skin or eyes in some people.

Confidence: HIGH

peg-150 distearate

✅2/10

For school-age kids (5 years and older) this ingredient is usually low risk when used on the skin. It’s an ingredient that helps water and oil mix in creams and lotions. The main worry is not the ingredient itself but possible tiny amounts of unwanted impurities from how it’s made.

Confidence: MEDIUM

peg-80 sorbitan laurate

✅2/10

For kids aged 5 and up, this ingredient is usually okay in small amounts on normal skin, but it can cause skin reactions in some people and the ingredient report raises concerns about contamination with impurities.

Confidence: MEDIUM

phenoxyethanol

✅2/10

For school-age children (ages 5 and up), phenoxyethanol is commonly used as a preservative and is usually low risk when products contain it at low concentrations (around 1% or less). The biggest concern is irritation — some kids may get redness, stinging, or eye irritation.

Confidence: HIGH

sodium dehydroacetate

✅2/10

For children 5 years and older this preservative is generally low risk when it’s used at the low levels normally found in cosmetics. However, some government reviews and scientific studies have found signs of possible hormone-related effects at higher doses in animals, so it’s best kept to standard, low concentrations.

Confidence: MEDIUM

cocamidopropyl hydroxysultaine

✅1/10

For school-age children (5 years and older), this is usually safe when used in rinse-off products like shampoos and body washes. It is a mild cleanser and makes products foam.

Confidence: MEDIUM

glycol stearate

✅1/10

For school-age children (5 years and older): glycol stearate is generally considered low risk when used in normal skin products like lotions and creams.

Confidence: HIGH

hydrolyzed casein

✅1/10

For children 5 years and older (school-age kids and teens), hydrolyzed casein is usually safe when used on the skin. It’s a milk protein that conditions skin and most children won’t have a problem with it.

No Known Risk - Government and industry safety reviews do not find clear harms. A Canadian health assessment says this ingredient is not expected to be toxic, and an environmental review says it is not suspected to be an environmental toxin. An industry safety panel notes only that safe use can depend on how the ingredient is made and used. All common health concerns (cancer, allergies, developmental harm, and use limits) were rated low, so no risks above low were identified.

Confidence: HIGH

panthenol

✅1/10

For children 5 and older (kids, school-age children): panthenol is generally safe when used on the skin in lotions, creams, shampoos and wipes. It helps hydrate and calm the skin and is considered low risk when used as directed.

No Known Risk - Health and regulatory reviews (including Canadian and U.S. assessments and industry safety panels) find panthenol has no reported hazards above a low level for topical use. It is not expected to harm organs, does not appear to build up in the body or the environment, and common concerns (cancer, allergies, reproductive effects) were rated low. There are some industry notes about safe use levels and a few data gaps, but no higher-level health risks were identified.

Confidence: HIGH

polyquaternium-11

✅1/10

For school-age children (5 years and up), this ingredient is generally low risk when used on the skin or hair in normal products. It’s a conditioning ingredient found in shampoos, conditioners and some skin products.

No Known Risk - A government review found this ingredient is not expected to be toxic to organs, and it is not likely to build up in the body or harm the environment. An industry safety panel notes limits on how it is used and some gaps in data, but no higher-level health concerns (like cancer, hormone or developmental risks) were identified. Based on those reviews, there are no known health risks above low concern.

Confidence: MEDIUM

sodium cocoyl isethionate

✅1/10

For children 5 years and older, this is a mild cleansing ingredient that is generally safe, especially in products that are rinsed off like shampoos, body washes, and cleansing bars.

No Known Risk - Reviews by a cosmetic safety review panel and a national environment agency found no significant health hazards. The ingredient is not thought to build up in the body or harm organs, and it is considered safe in products when used at the allowed levels (with different limits for rinse-off versus leave-on products). There are some notes about possible mild irritation and that safety limits are set, but overall no real health risks were identified.

Confidence: HIGH

tocopheryl acetate

✅1/10

Safe for most school-age kids when used in small amounts on healthy skin. A few children may get redness or a mild rash.

Confidence: MEDIUM

ethyl-hexylglycerin

✅1/10

Ethyl-hexylglycerin is a common preservative and skin conditioning agent in baby products. It is considered very safe for topical use in children over 5 years.

Confidence: HIGH

water

✅0/10

For kids aged 5 and up (school-age children, children, older kids), water used on the skin is very safe. It’s the basic ingredient in cleansers, lotions and wipes and carries very low health concern when clean and used in normal products.

No Known Risk - Regulatory reviews (Environment Canada) find plain water is not expected to be toxic, not bioaccumulative, and not an environmental toxin. Safety summaries list no concerns above a low level for organ harm, reproductive effects, or other long‑term risks for topical use, so no specific health risks are identified for use on skin.
