Ingredients Analysis (22 found)

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 rosinante

⚠️4/10

Glyceryl rosinante is not a recognized cosmetic or topical ingredient. It may be a misreading or typo of glyceryl rosinate or similar. Cannot assess safety accurately.

Confidence: HIGH

chamomilla recutita flower extract

✅3/10

For babies 6–12 months old, chamomile flower extract is usually safe when it’s in products made for infants. It’s often used to soothe skin, but a small number of people can have an allergy to it.

No Known Risk - Major safety reviews find only low or unclear concerns. A cosmetic safety panel says this chamomile extract is generally safe in products when used with limits, and the European chemicals agency notes only limited evidence of skin allergy. A few small human studies and a review reported unclear (equivocal) findings for nerve or pregnancy effects, but the data are not strong. No health concern here is rated above low.

Confidence: MEDIUM

propanediol

✅3/10

For babies 6–12 months (infant, baby, toddler), propanediol is usually low risk when used at the levels found in baby lotions and wipes. But it can sometimes irritate sensitive skin and can make skin absorb other ingredients more easily, so we remain careful.

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

bentonite

✅2/10

Bentonite is a clay that is usually low risk for older babies (6–12 months) when used on the skin in normal baby products. It rarely causes serious reactions, but quality and purity matter.

Confidence: MEDIUM

coco-glucoside

✅2/10

For babies 6–12 months (older infants), coco-glucoside is usually gentle and low risk when used in products made for babies. Most babies tolerate it well, but a small number can get irritation or allergic rash.

Confidence: HIGH

microcrystalline cellulose

✅2/10

For a baby 6–12 months old, this ingredient is generally low risk when used in normal baby lotions or creams. It’s an inert, plant-based powder used to thicken or hold a product together. Still, a small number of people can develop a skin allergy to it, so we take extra care with infants.

Confidence: MEDIUM

avocado fruit extract

✅1/10

For babies 6–12 months old, avocado fruit extract is generally safe to use on the skin. It is a gentle, moisturizing ingredient and the available safety information shows low concerns for health effects.

No Known Risk - Safety reviews from established cosmetic-ingredient sources show only low-level concerns (for cancer, allergies/immune effects, developmental or reproductive effects, and use restrictions) for topical use of avocado fruit extract. No hazards above low were identified, so no specific health risks are flagged for typical topical use.

Confidence: HIGH

calendula officinalis extract

✅1/10

For babies 6–12 months (infants), calendula (marigold) flower extract is generally safe and often used to soothe the skin. Serious problems are uncommon, but some babies may be sensitive.

No Known Risk - Reviewed safety information finds low concern for cancer, allergic or immune effects, and developmental or reproductive harms for this topical plant extract. An industry safety panel (Cosmetic Ingredient Review) did note some data gaps and recommends limits on concentration and control of impurities, but no serious hazards were identified for normal skin use. Because formal safety reviews rate the concerns as low, there are no known health risks for typical topical use.

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

cellulose gum

✅1/10

For babies 6–12 months (infants), cellulose gum used on the skin is usually safe. It’s a gentle, widely used thickener and rarely causes problems when it’s in products made for babies.

No Known Risk - Reviewed safety information shows no health concerns above low for this ingredient. Official food-safety reviewers permit limited use in food, a cosmetic safety review panel notes some data gaps but did not find high risks, and a Canadian health authority classifies it as not expected to be toxic or an environmental hazard. Some product-verification programs may still ask for extra proof before allowing it, but current evidence points to no known health risks for topical use.

Confidence: HIGH

cetearyl alcohol

✅1/10

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

olive oil unsaponifiables

✅1/10

For a 6–12 month old baby (infant), this olive-derived ingredient is usually safe for skin use. It has low overall concern, but a small number of people may get mild irritation.
