Ingredients Analysis (6 found)

Fragrance
⚠️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
Tocopheryl Acetate
✅3/10
Usually fine for most 6–12 month old babies when used sparingly on healthy skin. The main worry is a possible skin rash in sensitive babies.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract
✅2/10
For a 6-12 month old baby, aloe leaf extract is usually safe on the skin when it comes from products made for babies. It helps soothe and moisturize, but a small number of infants may develop irritation or an allergic reaction.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Vitamin E
✅2/10
For babies 6–12 months (older infants), topical Vitamin E is usually safe when used in small amounts from trusted products. It can help keep skin soft but rarely causes irritation. There is a reported risk if the ingredient is contaminated with a chemical called hydroquinone, and some studies flag possible effects on hormones at high doses.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Tricalcium Phosphate
✅1/10
For babies 6–12 months old, tricalcium phosphate in skin care is usually safe and considered low risk. It doesn’t soak into the skin much and is not linked to serious health problems, but some forms can irritate skin, eyes, or lungs.
No Known Risk - Government and expert reviews do not show clear hazards for tricalcium phosphate. A Canadian health agency classifies it as not expected to be toxic and a low human-health priority. U.S. regulatory notes say it can be allowed in some limited food uses (and list a few specific prohibitions), and a cosmetics review found only possible irritation with the evidence described as unassessed. Together this means there are no proven or elevated risks for typical topical use on children.
Confidence: HIGH
Zea Mays (Corn) Starch
✅1/10
Zea Mays Starch is corn starch used as an absorbent and thickener in baby products and is considered very safe for topical use on babies
No Known Risk - Corn starch is widely used in baby powders and topical products, and current research does not show any significant health risks when used on intact skin. It is generally considered safe for topical use on babies, with no evidence linking it to irritation, hormone disruption, cancer, or other long-term health effects. However, care should be taken to avoid inhalation of powders, but for topical use, there are no known risks.
Confidence: HIGH
