Ingredients Analysis (5 found)

Calcium Hydroxide
🚨6/10
For infants (6–12 months), calcium hydroxide can irritate the skin, eyes and breathing. It is not a common cancer or developmental concern, but it can cause burning, redness or eye injury if it touches the face or broken skin. Because babies have very sensitive skin, this ingredient should be used very cautiously or avoided.
Irritant - Authoritative safety guides list calcium hydroxide as an irritant to skin, eyes, and lungs. A chemical-hazards pocket guide classifies it as an eye/skin/lung irritant, a U.S. medical toxicology source reports evidence of skin irritation, and an industry safety panel says it can cause irritation unless used at limited concentrations. For a baby, that means this ingredient can cause redness, stinging, or rashes on delicate skin or damage if it gets in the eyes.
Asthma - Chemical-hazard guidance specifically calls out lung irritation from calcium hydroxide. Because it can irritate the lungs, it can make breathing problems or asthma worse in children if inhaled or if fine dust/aerosols reach the airways.
Banned - Regulatory sources for cosmetics show use and concentration limits for calcium hydroxide and recommend restrictions. The EU Cosmetics Directive / Cosing records restrictions and the industry review panel says it is only safe when formulated to avoid irritation. These rules mean some countries or product standards limit or prohibit its use in cosmetics.
Confidence: HIGH
Tocopherols
✅1/10
Non-GMO Mixed Tocopherols are forms of vitamin E used as antioxidants and are considered very safe for baby skin
No Known Risk - Tocopherols (vitamin E) are widely used in topical baby products and are generally considered safe for infant skin. There is no strong evidence linking topical tocopherols to irritation, hormone disruption, cancer, or other health risks in babies. Rare allergic reactions are possible but not common, so no risk labels apply based on current research.
Confidence: HIGH
Organic Olea Europaea Fruit Oil
✅1/10
Organic olive oil is generally safe for baby skin moisturization with low allergy risk and is commonly used in baby care products
No Known Risk - Olive oil is generally considered safe for topical use on baby skin, with no strong evidence linking it to irritation, eczema, or other health risks in most infants. While some studies suggest it may worsen eczema in predisposed babies, this is not consistent or proven for the general population. There are no known links to hormone disruption, cancer, organ risk, or other listed risks based on current research.
Confidence: HIGH
Organic Beeswax
✅1/10
Yellow wax is another name for beeswax commonly used as an emollient in baby care products and is generally considered safe for topical use
Confidence: HIGH
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. 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
