Ingredients Analysis (26 found)

Parfum/Natural Fragrance
🚨6/10
Premium Fragrance Oil is a vague term for fragrance blends that may contain allergens or irritants. Fragrances often cause skin sensitivity in babies 6-12 months.
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: LOW
Sodium Polyacrylate
⚠️5/10
For babies 6–12 months, sodium polyacrylate is generally low risk when used in products like diapers because it stays in the material and is not easily absorbed through skin. However, there is a contamination concern (a chemical called acrylic acid) and some babies can have sensitive skin, so we take a cautious approach.
Organ Risk - Environment Canada classifies this material as expected to be toxic or harmful to non-reproductive organs and gives it a medium human-health priority. That means repeated or heavy exposure could harm organs (for example liver, kidneys, or lungs).
Irritant - Industry safety reviewers note the ingredient should be used only when formulated to avoid irritation, and the ingredient data flags possible contamination with acrylic acid (a known skin and respiratory irritant). Because of that, products containing it may cause skin redness, itching, or rashes—especially on very sensitive baby skin.
Long-Term Risk - The U.S. FDA records this material for limited uses in food and as a food additive with only limited toxicity data. That means people can get exposed from more than one source (food plus topical products), so small exposures can add up over time and raise longer-term health concern.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Lavender Flower/Leaf/Stem Extract
⚠️5/10
Lavender extract may cause skin irritation or allergic reactions in infants and is not essential in baby care products
Irritant - Lavender extract can cause skin irritation, redness, or rashes in sensitive individuals, especially infants with delicate skin.
Hormones - Some studies suggest lavender oil may have hormone-disrupting effects, such as acting as a weak estrogen mimic, raising concerns about its use on babies.
Confuse Hormones - There is evidence that lavender extract can act as an endocrine disruptor, potentially confusing natural hormone signals in children.
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
Potassium Jojobate
⚠️4/10
Potassium Jojobate is not a recognized ingredient name and may be a misreading or typo of Potassium Jojobaate or Jojoba derivatives. Cannot assess safety accurately.
Confidence: HIGH
Bisabolol
✅3/10
For a 6–12 month old baby (older infant), bisabolol is usually low risk and is used to calm and condition baby skin. However, some people can get skin allergies from it, so babies with sensitive skin need extra care.
Confidence: MEDIUM
2-Hexanediol
✅2/10
For babies 6–12 months (infants), this ingredient is generally low risk when used in normal amounts in baby lotions and wipes. It can sometimes irritate sensitive skin, eyes, or breathing at higher concentrations.
No Known Risk - Independent safety reviews (Cosmetic Ingredient Review) and the European Chemicals Agency do not find serious health hazards for normal skin use. They note only limited evidence of skin, eye, or lung irritation at higher doses and point out some data gaps, so overall the ingredient is rated low risk for typical topical use.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice
✅2/10
For babies 6 to 12 months old, aloe vera leaf juice used on the skin is usually safe when it is part of a product made for baby skin and used in small amounts. It helps moisturize and soothe, but a small number of babies may be sensitive.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Butylene Glycol
✅2/10
For babies 6–12 months (infants, little ones, young babies): this ingredient is commonly used and has low long-term health concerns, but it can irritate skin, eyes or lungs in some people.
Confidence: HIGH
Citric Acid
✅2/10
For babies 6–12 months (infants), citric acid in small amounts in wipes and baby lotions is usually low risk. It can cause stinging if it gets in the eyes and can bother very sensitive or broken skin.
Confidence: HIGH
Honeysuckle Flower Extract
✅2/10
Honeysuckle Flower Extract is a botanical ingredient with mild anti-inflammatory properties. It is generally safe in topical baby products but may cause minor irritation in sensitive skin.
No Known Risk - Honeysuckle Flower Extract is generally considered safe for topical use, with no strong evidence linking it to irritation, hormone disruption, cancer, or other major health risks in babies. There are no well-documented cases or studies showing harm when used in baby skincare products. However, as with any botanical extract, rare allergic reactions are possible, but these are not common enough to warrant a specific risk label based on current research.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Jojoba Alcohol
✅2/10
For babies 6–12 months (infants), jojoba alcohol is usually gentle and low risk when used on the skin. The main concern is not the ingredient itself but possible contamination during manufacturing.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Trisodium Ethylenediamine Disuccinate
✅2/10
For a 6–12 month old baby (infant), this ingredient is generally low risk when used at the small amounts found in skincare products. It is a helper ingredient (a chelator) and not a medicine. Still, there are signs from lab and animal studies that it can increase how much other things soak into skin and can irritate eyes or skin at higher levels.
Confidence: HIGH
Caprylyl Glycol
✅1/10
For babies 6–12 months (infants), Caprylyl Glycol is usually low risk when used in small amounts in baby lotions and wipes. It is not thought to cause cancer or long-term harm based on government and industry reviews.
No Known Risk - Government and industry safety reviews found no clear health hazards for skin use. Tests say it is not likely to build up in the body, not persistent in the environment, and not harmful to organs. Industry reviewers do note limits on how much can be used and some data gaps, but overall the ingredient is rated low concern for topical use.
Confidence: MEDIUM

Confidence: HIGH
Dicaprylyl Carbonate
✅1/10
For babies aged 6–12 months, dicaprylyl carbonate is generally low risk. It’s an ingredient that helps skin feel soft and smooth. Most safety checks show no major long-term hazards, but a small number of people may get mild skin or eye irritation.
No Known Risk - Available safety reviews show only very low concerns for this ingredient. Tests found limited, mild eye or skin irritation in some studies, but no stronger links to cancer, hormone or brain effects, organ damage, or reproductive problems. Because the evidence of harm is low, this ingredient is not flagged as a real health risk for children in normal topical use.
Confidence: HIGH
Ginger Root Extract
✅1/10
Safe for most babies 6–12 months when used on healthy skin. Reactions are uncommon and usually mild, like slight warmth or redness.
No Known Risk - Current studies show very low concern for skin use. A major food safety group allows it in some foods, and only limited skin allergy reports exist. For normal use on skin, it is not expected to harm babies or kids.
Confidence: MEDIUM
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
Safflower Oleosomes
✅1/10
For a 6–12 month old baby (infant), safflower oleosomes come from safflower and are used as gentle moisturizers. Overall they are low risk when used on small areas of healthy skin, but there are low-level reports of mild irritation and some animal studies showing skin changes at high exposures.
Confidence: HIGH
Sodium Hyaluronate
✅1/10
For a 6–12 month old baby, sodium hyaluronate is generally safe. It helps skin hold moisture and is unlikely to cause irritation or be absorbed into the body from normal creams or wipes.
No Known Risk - Major safety reviews and government checks report low concern for this ingredient when used on the skin. Industry safety reviewers note some data gaps and recommend limits on how much may be used in products, and a government environmental review flagged uncertain effects on the environment. Some product-verification programs also require extra proof before allowing it. Taken together, there are no clear health risks above a low level in the available assessments.
Confidence: HIGH
Sorbitan Olivate
✅1/10
For babies 6–12 months old (infants and toddlers), Sorbitan Olivate is generally low risk when used in normal baby creams, lotions, and wipes. It is made from sorbitan and olive fatty acids and is used to blend oils and water.
No Known Risk - Reviewed safety information shows only low-level concerns for cancer, allergies/immune effects, and reproductive or developmental effects. An industry safety panel (Cosmetic Ingredient Review) notes data gaps and recommends limits on concentration or product types, but did not identify higher-level hazards for normal topical use. Based on that, there are no known health risks above low at typical use.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Xanthan Gum
✅1/10
For babies 6–12 months old, xanthan gum is generally safe when it’s an ingredient in normal baby wipes, creams or lotions. It’s a mild thickener that rarely irritates skin.
No Known Risk - Safety reviews and regulatory assessments find no health hazards above a low level for topical use. It is approved for limited use in food, classified as not expected to be toxic and a low human-health priority, and not suspected to be an environmental toxin. Cosmetic industry reviewers note only guidance on concentrations or purity. Because no concern was rated above low, no specific risks were identified for babies or children.
Confidence: HIGH
Cocoa Seed Butter
✅1/10
Theobroma cacao seed butter is cocoa butter commonly used as a skin moisturizer and is generally safe for baby skin
No Known Risk - Cocoa butter is widely used in baby products and is generally considered safe for topical use on baby skin. 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 cocoa butter itself. Current research and regulatory guidance do not identify cocoa butter as a risk for babies.
Confidence: HIGH
Carrot Root Extract
✅1/10
For babies 6-12 months (infants, older babies): Generally low risk when used on the skin. Most safety concerns are low, but a few babies can get skin irritation or an allergic reaction.
Confidence: MEDIUM
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.
