Ingredients Analysis (34 found)

Isopropyl Alcohol
🚫8/10
For infants 6–12 months (babies, crawlers, toddlers-in-training), isopropyl alcohol can dry and irritate the skin and eyes, and can be harmful if breathed in or swallowed. It may also make the skin absorb other substances more easily.
Irritant - This ingredient is known to irritate skin, eyes, and lungs. It is officially labeled as an eye and general irritant under EU hazard labeling, and studies describe strong irritation from exposure.
Organ Risk - There are reports of systemic harm after exposure, including cases of intoxication and serious lung problems. Government assessments classify it as toxic or harmful and animal studies show toxic effects at moderate doses.
Absorbed - Evidence shows isopropyl alcohol can be taken up through the skin and can boost how other substances get through the skin. A clinical report and lab studies note topical absorption and a penetration-enhancing effect.
Asthma - Workplace studies link repeated breathing of alcohol vapors to industrial bronchitis and other respiratory harm. Case reports also show severe breathing problems after chronic inhalation, so it can worsen breathing conditions.
Long-Term Risk - Because of documented occupational harms and government listings that give it a medium human-health priority, repeated or long-term exposure could cause health problems over time.
Confidence: HIGH
Behentrimonium Chloride
🚨6/10
For a baby 6–12 months old, this ingredient is moderately safe when used in small amounts in rinse-off baby shampoos or conditioners. There is a moderate chance it could cause skin irritation or an allergic reaction, and some reviews point to restrictions on how it can be used in products.
Immune system - A specialist list of asthma-causing chemicals flags this ingredient as a human allergen, and reviews of quaternary ammonium compounds note links to immune or allergy effects. That means it can trigger allergic reactions in some people.
Asthma - An asthmagen compilation lists this chemical as a cause of respiratory allergy and there is limited evidence it can harm breathing. Kids with sensitive lungs or asthma could be affected.
Banned - This ingredient is subject to government limits: the EU cosmetics rules list restrictions and a cosmetic safety panel says it is allowed only with limits. That shows some countries regulate or limit its use.
Organ Risk - Some toxicology reviews and human-focused studies raise concern that quaternary ammonium compounds can affect organs. This ingredient has been noted as a possible human toxicant in those reports.
Fertility - Animal studies (mouse studies) found lower fertility after exposure to similar quaternary ammonium disinfectants, showing effects on male and female reproductive systems at moderate doses.
Hormones - Laboratory research found that quaternary ammonium compounds can interfere with cholesterol and hormone pathways, which suggests this ingredient may disrupt normal hormone processes.
Environmental - A government environmental review flags this class of chemicals as a suspected environmental toxin, so it may harm aquatic life or ecosystems if released widely.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Stearalkonium Chloride
🚨6/10
For a 6–12 month old baby, this ingredient has a higher chance of causing allergic skin or breathing reactions and is restricted in some safety lists. Babies’ skin and airways are still sensitive, so it’s safer to avoid products with this ingredient when possible.
Immune system - Strong human evidence shows this chemical can act as an allergen and harm the immune or respiratory system (listed in an asthmagen compilation and by the Association of Occupational and Environmental Clinics, and supported in peer‑reviewed studies). That means it can cause allergic reactions in people, including children.
Asthma - This ingredient is listed as an asthmagen and a respiratory toxicant by occupational/clinical sources (AEOC compilation and AOEC) and in the scientific literature, so it can trigger or worsen breathing problems such as asthma.
Irritant - There is strong human allergen evidence from clinical and peer‑reviewed sources that this substance can cause skin reactions. On sensitive baby skin this may show up as redness, itching, or rash.
Banned - Regulatory bodies restrict or limit use of this material in cosmetics (for example under the EU Cosmetics Directive), and industry safety panels note specific use‑and‑concentration controls, meaning some countries or product types disallow or tightly limit it.
Organ Risk - Non‑reproductive organ system concerns have been flagged — government assessment and recent studies note possible toxic effects on organs after exposure to related quaternary ammonium disinfectants, so repeated or high exposures could harm organs such as the lungs or other systems.
Environmental - A government environmental agency has identified this chemical as suspected to be an environmental toxin, so it may pose risks to wildlife or ecosystems if released.
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
Lactic Acid
⚠️5/10
For babies aged 6-12 months, lactic acid can cause irritation and makes skin absorb more of what it’s mixed with. It is sometimes okay in very low amounts or in rinse-off products, but it's not a good choice for everyday leave-on baby creams.
Banned - This ingredient is restricted in some places and must follow rules about how it is made and used. A Canadian safety list and government guidance limit its use, and industry safety panels set rules on how much can be in products.
Absorbed - This acid can help other things pass through the skin and can get into the body more easily. A safety review paper lists it as a penetration enhancer, so it may raise how much of a product is absorbed.
Sun Burn - Industry safety guidance says it can raise the skin's sensitivity to the sun unless products are made to prevent that or directions tell you to use sun protection.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Water Aqua
⚠️5/10
Water Aqua is purified water used as a solvent in shampoos and conditioners. It is very safe for topical use on babies 6-12 months.
Confidence: HIGH
Alcohol
⚠️5/10
Alcohol can cause dryness and irritation on baby skin but is often used as a solvent or preservative in shampoos. Use with caution for 6-12 month babies.
Confidence: HIGH
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
Sodium Hydroxide
⚠️4/10
For infants 6–12 months (older babies and crawlers), sodium hydroxide in tiny, well-formulated amounts used only to adjust product pH is usually low risk. It is dangerous if present in concentrated form or if a product is not made to avoid irritation.
Banned - This ingredient is restricted for use in cosmetics in some regions. The EU cosmetics rules list limits on its use, and industry safety reviewers say it can only be used safely at certain low concentrations or when specially handled.
Organ Risk - Authorities have flagged possible harm to organs with repeated or high exposures. A national health agency classified it as expected to be toxic or harmful and gave it a medium human-health priority, and a U.S. assessment found toxic effects in animal studies. There is also limited evidence of breathing-related toxicity noted by a medical literature source.
Asthma - There is limited evidence that breathing in this chemical can hurt the lungs or airways. Medical literature notes possible respiratory toxicity, so it could make breathing problems worse if a child is exposed to vapor or mist.
