Ingredients Analysis (11 found)

Rosemary Leaf Oil
🚨6/10
Rosemary leaf oil can cause skin irritation or allergy in babies aged 6–12 months. It can make the skin absorb more of what you put on, so babies may get more exposure than adults.
Immune system - There is strong evidence that rosemary leaf oil can cause allergic or immune reactions in people. This ingredient is listed as a human allergen by the EU cosmetics authority and is noted for immune/allergy concerns by other safety reviewers, so it can trigger allergic responses in some children.
Eczema - Rosemary leaf oil has been identified as a skin allergen and can trigger or make eczema and similar rashes worse. This risk is supported by the EU cosmetics listing and safety reviews that note immune or allergy effects in humans.
Organ Risk - Animal studies show metabolic effects at moderate doses, and a European chemicals agency has classified the ingredient as potentially toxic or harmful in some assessments. That means repeated or high exposures could affect organs like the liver or other systems in animals, so there is some organ risk to note.
Brain Development - Animal research shows neuroendocrine or nervous-system effects at moderate doses. That suggests the oil could affect developing brain or hormone-related brain processes if exposure is high, so there is a possible risk to early brain development.
Absorbed - This oil can act as a skin penetration enhancer, meaning it can help other substances (and itself) get through the skin into the body. The Cosmetic Ingredient Review notes this property, so topical use can lead to absorption into the bloodstream.
Confidence: HIGH
Green Tea Leaf Extract
✅3/10
For babies 6–12 months (infants and older babies): this ingredient is usually low risk but can cause skin allergies or irritation in some babies. Most of the time it’s safe in small amounts, but baby skin is delicate so be careful.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Beeswax
✅2/10
Natural wax emollient and thickener forming a skin barrier. Used in wipes and lotions to stabilize and moisturize. Generally safe. Rare contact allergy, possible propolis contamination.
Confidence: HIGH
Black Tea Leaf Extract
✅2/10
Black Tea Leaf Extract is generally safe topically and may provide antioxidant benefits. Use in sunscreen for babies 6-12 months is minor concern due to potential mild irritation.
Confidence: HIGH
Cannabis Sativa Seed Oil
✅2/10

No Known Risk - Cannabis Sativa Seed Oil (hemp seed oil) is widely used in topical products and is generally recognized as safe for use on baby skin.

Confidence: HIGH
Tocopherol
✅2/10
For babies 6–12 months (infants, baby, toddler): tocopherol (vitamin E) is usually safe in small amounts found in baby lotions and wipes. Most babies tolerate it fine, but a few can get a rash or irritation.
Confidence: HIGH
Coffee Seed Extract
✅2/10
For babies 6–12 months old, this coffee plant extract is generally low risk when used in small amounts on the skin. The safety information provided shows low concerns for cancer, allergies, and effects on development, but any plant extract can sometimes irritate a baby’s sensitive skin.
No Known Risk - Available safety reviews for topical use of Coffea arabica leaf/seed extract do not show any health concerns above very low levels. No higher-risk issues (such as cancer, hormone or developmental effects, or organ damage) were identified in the ingredient assessments, so there are no specific child health risks flagged for normal skin use. If a child has a known plant allergy or very sensitive skin, try a small patch test or ask your pediatrician.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Mango Butter
✅1/10
Mango butter is a mild plant fat used as a moisturizer low allergen risk safe for baby skin in topical use

Confidence: HIGH
Zinc Oxide
✅1/10
Zinc oxide is a safe mineral ingredient for topical use on babies 6 to 12 months when in creams or lotions. It protects skin and acts as a physical sunscreen or barrier.
Confidence: HIGH
Cocoa Seed Butter
✅1/10
Theobroma cacao seed butter is cocoa butter commonly used as a skin moisturizer and is generally safe for baby skin
No Known Risk - Cocoa butter is widely used in baby products and is generally considered safe for topical use on baby skin.
