Ingredients Analysis (16 found)

Cocamidopropyl Betaine

⚠️5/10

For babies 6–12 months old (infants, babies, little ones), this ingredient is commonly used in baby washes and shampoos and is generally okay when it is rinsed off. There are higher concerns about impurities and possible skin reactions, so caution is advised.

Immune system - Cosmetic safety reviews (Cosmetic Ingredient Review and draft safety reports) report limited evidence that cocamidopropyl betaine can sensitize skin or trigger allergic reactions. That means it can affect the immune system in some people, especially those with sensitive skin.

Irritant - Industry safety assessments note limited evidence of skin sensitization and explicitly warn the ingredient may be unsafe in products left on the skin (not rinsed off). This shows it can cause redness, itching, or irritation for some users.

Eczema - Safety panels and reports observed cases of sensitization and recommend limits on use and product types. Because it can provoke skin reactions, it may trigger or worsen eczema in sensitive children.

Cancer - Regulatory and industry reviews flag contamination concerns for this ingredient, including nitrosamines and related amines. Nitrosamines are known to be carcinogenic, so impurity risks raise a cancer concern unless impurities are controlled as industry reviewers recommend.

Banned - Expert panels and tentative regulatory reports recommend use, concentration, and manufacturing restrictions for this ingredient and note it is unsafe in some product types (leave-on). While not universally banned, it is subject to regulatory or industry limits in some contexts.

Environmental - A national environmental agency (Environment Canada) flagged this ingredient as a suspected environmental toxin, indicating possible harm to ecosystems if released into the environment.

Confidence: HIGH

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

Sodium C14-16 Olefin Sulfonate

⚠️5/10

For babies 6–12 months old, this is a strong soap-like ingredient used to make bubbles and remove dirt. Most health data show low long-term toxicity, but because it can dry or irritate delicate baby skin and there are some impurity concerns, it should be treated with caution.

Organ Risk - Environment Canada lists this ingredient as “expected to be toxic or harmful” to non-reproductive organs and gives it a medium human-health priority. That means repeated or high exposures could hurt organs (for example liver, kidneys, or lungs). The regulatory review named in the ingredient file is the source of this concern (Environment Canada).

Cancer - The ingredient file flags contamination concerns, specifically the impurity gamma‑sultone, and the industry safety review (Cosmetic Ingredient Review, CIR) recommends limits on impurities. Impurities like gamma‑sultone can raise cancer-related worries, so this is a moderate contamination-linked cancer risk to be aware of.

Long-Term Risk - The same reviews note this ingredient is a medium human-health priority and that safety conclusions depend on concentration and use. The CIR also notes data gaps and concentration limits in its safety assessment. Together, these findings point to possible long-term health risks with repeated or high exposures.
