Sebacate

⚠️4/10

Sebacate is not a recognized ingredient name it might be a misreading or typo possibly referring to sebacate salts used as emollients but unclear

Confidence: HIGH

Octyldodecanol

✅2/10

For babies 6–12 months old, octyldodecanol is generally low risk for long-term or bodywide harm. It’s commonly used in baby creams and wipes to make skin feel soft. The main issue seen in people is irritation (redness, stinging or eye irritation), so it’s important to be careful with sensitive baby skin.

Confidence: MEDIUM

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

✅1/10

For babies 6–12 months old, this ingredient is generally safe. It is a mild, lightweight oil used to soften skin and is unlikely to cause irritation or health harm when used in normal baby creams or wipes.

Confidence: HIGH

Glycerin

✅1/10

Glycerin is a gentle, water-attracting ingredient used to moisturize skin. For 6-12 month old babies it is generally safe in typical baby lotions and wipes. Problems are rare but possible.

Confidence: HIGH

Magnesium Stearate

✅1/10

For a 6–12 month old baby (infant), magnesium stearate on the skin is generally very low risk. It’s used in small amounts to help creams and powders feel smooth and stay mixed.

No Known Risk - Government and industry safety reviews say this ingredient poses low concern. The U.S. food agency lists it as safe for limited food use, Environment Canada calls it not expected to be toxic and a low human-health priority, and the cosmetic safety panel reviewed it (with some data gaps). Taken together, these sources show no clear health risks for typical topical use.

Confidence: HIGH

Panthenol

✅1/10

Panthenol is generally safe for babies aged 6–12 months (infants, babies, little ones) when it is used in normal baby creams, lotions or wipes. Most babies tolerate it well and allergic reactions are uncommon.

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

Polyglyceryl-4 Diisostearate

✅1/10

For babies aged 6–12 months (infants), this ingredient is generally safe. It is a gentle emulsifier used in creams and lotions and the safety data available lists only low-level concerns.

No Known Risk - Safety reviews for this skin ingredient report low concern across cancer, allergy/immune effects, developmental and reproductive effects, and show no special use restrictions. In plain terms, the available data do not point to any real health risks for typical topical use. If your child has very sensitive skin or a known allergy, patch-test or check with a clinician.

Confidence: HIGH

Polyhydroxystearate

✅1/10

For babies 6–12 months (infants, older babies), this ingredient is generally safe to use on the skin. It is used to help mix oil and water in creams and lotions and is not known to commonly cause harm.

No Known Risk - Current safety reviews report only low-level concerns for cancer, allergies, and reproductive effects, and there are no bans or strong health warnings. A voluntary product-verification program may restrict this ingredient without extra safety proof, but that is about product standards rather than a proven health hazard. Based on available assessments, no real child health risks have been identified.

Confidence: HIGH

Shea Butter

✅1/10

Butyrospermum Parkii Shea Butter is a natural moisturizer commonly used in baby products. It is very safe for 6-12 month babies in topical use.

No Known Risk - Shea butter is widely used in baby skincare products and is generally considered safe for topical use. There is no strong evidence linking it to irritation, allergies, hormone disruption, or other health risks in babies. Rare allergic reactions may occur, but these are uncommon and not specific to infants. Current research and regulatory guidance do not identify any significant risks for babies when shea butter is used topically.

Confidence: HIGH

Zinc Oxide

✅1/10

Zinc oxide is a safe mineral ingredient for topical use on babies 6 to 12 months when in creams or lotions. It protects skin and acts as a physical sunscreen or barrier.

Confidence: HIGH

Water

✅0/10

For babies 6-12 months (infants, older babies), plain water used on the skin is safe when it’s clean and part of a baby product. Official assessments say plain water is not expected to cause harm.

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.
