Ingredients Analysis (29 found)

Curcuma Longa Turmeric Root Extract
⚠️5/10
For a 6–12 month old baby (infant), turmeric root extract used on the skin is likely low risk for most babies but we don’t have lots of data specifically on babies. The biggest practical risks are mild skin irritation or an allergic reaction, and there is a small chance of eye irritation.
Organ Risk - Laboratory toxicity reviews of Curcuma longa and related plants have flagged possible harm to non-reproductive organs after exposure. These toxicity studies identified potential organ effects, so repeated or large exposures could stress organs like the liver or kidneys.
Fertility - An animal study of Curcuma longa showed effects on the female reproductive system at high doses. That means very large or frequent exposures changed fertility measures in animals, so caution is advised for pregnant or trying-to-conceive individuals.
Irritant - The European Chemicals Agency reports limited evidence that turmeric extracts can irritate the eyes. Topical use that gets into the eyes may cause redness or soreness, especially in sensitive people or babies.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Melaleuca Alternifolia Tea Tree Leaf Extract
⚠️5/10
For infants 6–12 months (babies, little ones), tea tree leaf extract is usually low risk but can sometimes irritate skin or cause an allergic reaction. It’s more tolerated than in newborns, but not risk-free.
Organ Risk - A European chemical agency (ECHA) has classified this tea tree leaf extract as toxic or harmful to non-reproductive organ systems. That means repeated or strong exposure could hurt organs (for example liver, kidneys, or lungs) rather than just the skin. This classification is the basis for the concern.
Environmental - The same European chemical agency notes wildlife and environmental toxicity for this ingredient. That means it can harm plants, fish, or other animals if it gets into water or the environment.
Confidence: HIGH
Sodium Hydroxide
⚠️4/10
For infants 6–12 months (older babies and crawlers), sodium hydroxide in tiny, well-formulated amounts used only to adjust product pH is usually low risk. It is dangerous if present in concentrated form or if a product is not made to avoid irritation.
Banned - This ingredient is restricted for use in cosmetics in some regions. The EU cosmetics rules list limits on its use, and industry safety reviewers say it can only be used safely at certain low concentrations or when specially handled.
Organ Risk - Authorities have flagged possible harm to organs with repeated or high exposures. A national health agency classified it as expected to be toxic or harmful and gave it a medium human-health priority, and a U.S. assessment found toxic effects in animal studies. There is also limited evidence of breathing-related toxicity noted by a medical literature source.
Asthma - There is limited evidence that breathing in this chemical can hurt the lungs or airways. Medical literature notes possible respiratory toxicity, so it could make breathing problems worse if a child is exposed to vapor or mist.
Confidence: HIGH
Ethylhexylglycerin
✅3/10
For babies 6–12 months old, this ingredient is usually low risk when used in small amounts in creams and lotions. However, it can sometimes cause skin irritation or a rare allergic reaction, and it can irritate the eyes.

Lauryl Glucoside
✅3/10
For a baby aged 6–12 months, lauryl glucoside is usually gentle and is commonly used in baby washes and wipes. Most infants do fine with it, but a small number may get skin irritation or an allergic rash.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Ocimum Basilicum Extract
✅3/10
Ocimum basilicum leaf extract is basil extract used for fragrance or soothing but limited safety data for infants so minor concerns
No Known Risk - Basil leaf extract is generally considered safe for topical use, with no strong evidence linking it to irritation, allergies, hormone disruption, or other health risks in babies. There are no known reports of toxicity or adverse effects in infants from topical application, so it is considered low risk based on current research.
Confidence: MEDIUM

Some verified product programs restrict its use unless makers provide extra safety information.
Confidence: MEDIUM

Common health concerns such as cancer, allergies, and reproductive effects were rated low for topical use, and no higher-level risks were identified in the available data.
Confidence: HIGH

Some product standards still limit its use unless makers supply safety data.
Confidence: MEDIUM

✅1/10
For a baby aged 6–12 months, sodium phytate is generally low risk when used in normal amounts in baby skin products. It is commonly used to help keep formulas stable.
