Ingredients Analysis (38 found)

Butyloctyl Salicylate
⚠️5/10
For babies 6–12 months old, this ingredient needs caution. It’s not one of the most worrying ingredients overall, but there are reports of possible contamination with salicylic acid and some animal studies showing effects at moderate doses. Because babies’ skin soaks up more, we treat it as a moderate concern.
Absorbed - The ingredient is used on skin and the safety notes flag enhanced skin absorption and contamination with salicylic acid. Peer-reviewed assessments say this can increase how much gets into the body, so topical use can lead to systemic exposure.
Fertility - Regulatory and peer-reviewed assessments found animal studies showing developmental and reproductive effects at moderate doses. A formal assessment of salicylate esters flagged reproductive/developmental concerns.
Hormones - Peer-reviewed literature associates this ingredient with endocrine disruption. That means it can affect natural hormone systems in early life or during development.
Confuse Hormones - Scientific reviews report this substance can act like or interfere with normal hormones (an endocrine effect). This can confuse hormone signals during growth and development.
Irritant - Animal studies in the literature show eye, respiratory and skin irritation at higher doses. That means it can cause redness, stinging, or breathing irritation in some uses or at high exposure.
Sun Burn - An industry safety panel (Cosmetic Ingredient Review) notes it must be formulated to avoid increasing sun sensitivity. If not, it can make skin burn faster in the sun.
Long-Term Risk - Industry and peer-reviewed sources place limits or use restrictions on this ingredient, indicating it needs concentration or formulation limits to be considered safe over time.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Peel Oil
⚠️5/10
Citrus Aurantium Dulcis Peel Oil is orange peel oil which may cause irritation or sensitization in infants likely used for fragrance
Irritant - Orange peel oil contains limonene and other citrus compounds that can cause skin irritation, especially on sensitive baby skin.
Sun Burn - Orange peel oil can increase photosensitivity, making skin more prone to sunburn when exposed to sunlight.
Confidence: HIGH
Caprylhydroxamic Acid
⚠️4/10
Cannot confirm safety for babies under 12 months limited data ingredient may be a preservative but not well studied in infants
Irritant - Caprylhydroxamic Acid can cause skin irritation, especially in sensitive individuals or with prolonged exposure, which is a concern for babies' delicate skin.
Confidence: LOW
Glyceryl Dihydroabietate
⚠️4/10
Glyceryl Dihydroabietate is not a well recognized ingredient in baby skincare or sunscreens it may be a misreading or typo
Confidence: HIGH
Bacillus Ferment
✅3/10
For babies 6–12 months (older infants), this ingredient is usually low risk but we should be careful because some agencies have reported possible irritation and a limited safety concern. It is not commonly linked to cancer or allergies.
No Known Risk - Reviewed safety information for topical use found no concerns above low. There is only limited, low-level evidence for possible skin or eye irritation and a low-rated note about non-reproductive organ effects, but these are not judged to be real risks at normal use. For typical use on children, no specific hazards were identified.
Confidence: MEDIUM
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.

Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Extract
✅3/10
For a 6–12 month old baby, chamomile flower extract is generally low risk when used on the skin. Most babies tolerate it fine, but a small number can have a contact allergy, especially if they are allergic to ragweed or other daisy-family plants.
No Known Risk - Reviewed safety panels and chemical agencies found only limited or unclear evidence of harm from chamomile flower extract when used on the skin. Expert reviews say it is generally safe for cosmetic use with normal concentrations, and studies that suggested possible effects were small or mixed. Because no clear, higher-than-low concerns were identified, there are no specific risks to report.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Arachidyl Glucoside
✅2/10
For babies aged 6–12 months (infants, babies, toddlers under one year), this ingredient is generally low risk in skin products formulated for babies. However, rare allergic reactions have been reported and it may increase how much other ingredients get into the skin, so be cautious, especially for babies with sensitive or eczema-prone skin.
Confidence: MEDIUM
