Ingredients Analysis (29 found)

Hydroxyethyl Acrylate

🚨6/10

For a 6–12 month old baby (infant, baby), this ingredient has a moderate chance of causing skin allergies or irritation. Overall systemic risks are low, but baby skin is sensitive so we treat this ingredient with caution.

Immune system - There is moderate concern that this chemical can cause allergic or immune reactions. European GHS labels list it as a possible skin toxicant/allergen, and medical database notes limited evidence of immune-system effects. That means some people—especially children with sensitive skin—could get rashes or allergic reactions.

Organ Risk - Authorities have flagged possible harm to body organs with repeated or higher exposures. European GHS classification calls it toxic or harmful to organ systems (non‑reproductive), though another agency found no expected toxicity. Because an official hazard label exists, there is a real risk if exposure is strong or repeated.

Long-Term Risk - Workplace guidance limits allowed exposures to low doses, which suggests concern about effects from repeated or long-term contact. That official workplace restriction indicates a risk if someone is exposed often over time.

Confidence: HIGH

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.

Confidence: LOW

Parfum

⚠️5/10

Perfume can cause skin irritation or allergic reactions in babies 6-12 months. It is used to provide fragrance in baby care products but should be used 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

Water

⚠️5/10

Water is safe for baby skin and is used as a solvent or base in most baby care 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.

Confidence: HIGH

Eau
