melaleuca alternifolia (tea tree) leaf oil

🚨6/10

For babies 6–12 months old, tea tree oil can cause skin irritation and allergic reactions. There are also small studies and regulatory reviews that raise concerns about hormonal and developmental effects. Because of these risks and babies’ sensitive skin, tea tree oil is not recommended for routine use on infants.

Immune system - Tea tree oil has clear evidence of causing allergic skin reactions. A multicenter study of contact dermatitis and regulatory reviews list it as a known dermal allergen, showing people can become sensitized and have allergy-driven reactions.

Irritant - There are multiple reports and regulatory reviews showing tea tree oil can irritate skin, eyes, and lungs. Animal studies also show irritation at low doses and expert reviews note limited but real irritation risk.

Eczema - Because tea tree oil is a known skin sensitizer and irritant, it can trigger or make eczema and similar skin rashes worse, as noted in clinical studies and regulatory assessments.

Hormones - There is limited evidence linking tea tree oil to hormone effects in children — case reports have tied it to prepubertal breast changes, and reviews flag possible endocrine activity, so it may affect hormone development in sensitive youngsters.

Fertility - Animal studies and safety reviews report reproductive and developmental effects at low doses in some tests, indicating a potential risk to reproductive health with repeated or high exposures.

Organ Risk - Some regulatory bodies and scientific reviews note limited evidence of systemic (non-reproductive) toxicity and have differing classifications; this points to a possible risk to organs with repeated or high exposure.

Absorbed - Safety reviews identify components of tea tree oil as penetration enhancers, meaning they can increase skin absorption and allow more of the substance into the body.

Asthma - There is limited evidence that tea tree oil can irritate the lungs, so inhalation or use around the face could worsen breathing problems or asthma in sensitive children.

Environmental - Some regulatory assessments report potential wildlife or environmental toxicity for tea tree oil, so it may have environmental impacts if released in quantity.

Confidence: HIGH

citrus paradisi (grapefruit) seed extract [CITRICIDAL]

✅3/10

For a 6–12 month old baby, grapefruit seed extract has low concern for long-term harms but carries a higher chance of being contaminated with other preservatives and can sometimes irritate skin. That means it isn’t the safest choice for routine baby skincare unless you know the product has been tested.

Confidence: MEDIUM

Zea mays (corn) starch (modified)

✅1/10

Safe for older infants when used in creams or lotions on healthy skin. Very low chance of problems.

Confidence: HIGH

silicon dioxide

✅1/10

For babies (infants) 6–12 months old, silicon dioxide used on the skin is generally very safe. It is often added to baby products to help absorb moisture or keep formulas from clumping. The supplied safety data shows only low concerns for cancer, allergies and effects on development.

No Known Risk - Reviewed safety information for topical colloidal silicon dioxide shows low concern for cancer, allergies or immune effects, developmental or reproductive harm, and use restrictions. For normal skin use there are no identified hazards that rise above a low level of concern.

Confidence: HIGH
