Ingredients Analysis (19 found)

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

disodium edta

✅3/10

For infants 6–12 months, Disodium EDTA is usually low risk when used in small amounts in baby lotions and wipes. The biggest issue is that it can irritate the skin or help other ingredients get into the skin faster, which may cause reactions in sensitive babies.

Confidence: MEDIUM

ethylhexylglycerin

✅3/10

For babies 6–12 months old, this ingredient is usually low risk when used in small amounts in creams and lotions. However, it can sometimes cause skin irritation or a rare allergic reaction, and it can irritate the eyes.

Confidence: HIGH

hydrolyzed casein

✅3/10

For babies 6–12 months (infants), hydrolyzed casein is low risk for most children. It is a protein from milk used to condition skin. Most healthy babies are unlikely to have problems, but because it comes from milk there is a small risk for babies who are allergic to cow’s milk.

No Known Risk - Government and industry safety reviews do not find clear harms. A Canadian health assessment says this ingredient is not expected to be toxic, and an environmental review says it is not suspected to be an environmental toxin. An industry safety panel notes only that safe use can depend on how the ingredient is made and used. All common health concerns (cancer, allergies, developmental harm, and use limits) were rated low, so no risks above low were identified.

Confidence: MEDIUM

phenoxyethanol

✅3/10

For babies 6–12 months old (infants and older babies), phenoxyethanol in lotions or wipes is usually low risk when the product is made for babies and the preservative is used at low levels. It can still irritate the skin or eyes in some babies, and very rarely cause an allergic reaction.

Confidence: MEDIUM

ascorbyl palmitate

✅2/10

For babies 6–12 months (older infants), this ingredient is generally low risk when used in typical amounts in skin products. It acts as an antioxidant. However, a lab study found it can increase cell-level oxidative damage under UV-B light, and some safety reviews note limited data and use restrictions.

Confidence: MEDIUM

citric acid

✅2/10

For babies 6–12 months (infants), citric acid in small amounts in wipes and baby lotions is usually low risk. It can cause stinging if it gets in the eyes and can bother very sensitive or broken skin.

Confidence: HIGH

peg-8

✅2/10

PEG-8 is a polyethylene glycol used as a solvent and humectant in topical products. It is generally safe but may cause minor irritation in sensitive baby skin.

Confidence: HIGH

sodium dehydroacetate

✅2/10

For babies aged 6–12 months this ingredient is usually low risk when used in small amounts in products made for skin. It acts as a preservative to stop germs from growing.

Confidence: MEDIUM

sweet almond oil

✅2/10

Sweet almond oil is generally safe for baby skin but may cause reactions in nut allergic infants used as moisturizer or emollient

No Known Risk - Sweet Almond Oil is widely used in baby skincare products and is generally considered safe for topical use on babies. There is no strong evidence linking it to irritation, allergies, or other health risks in the general population, except in rare cases of nut allergies. For most babies, it does not pose any known health risks based on current research.

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

ascorbic acid

✅1/10

Vitamin C is safe for topical use in babies and is often used as an antioxidant or preservative in baby care products

Confidence: HIGH

cetyl alcohol

✅1/10

For babies 6–12 months (older infants), cetyl alcohol is usually safe in creams and wipes. It helps make lotions feel smooth and is not known to be harmful in the tiny amounts used in baby products. A few babies with very sensitive skin may get a rash.

Confidence: MEDIUM

glycerin

✅1/10

Glycerin is a gentle, water-attracting ingredient used to moisturize skin. For 6-12 month old babies it is generally safe in typical baby lotions and wipes. Problems are rare but possible.

Confidence: HIGH

glyceryl stearate

✅1/10

For babies 6–12 months old, glyceryl stearate is generally safe when used on the skin in normal baby lotions and wipes. It helps keep creams smooth and helps oil and water mix. Most babies do fine with it.

Confidence: HIGH

isopropyl palmitate

✅1/10

For a 6–12 month old baby (infant), isopropyl palmitate is generally considered safe when used in normal baby lotions and wipes. It helps soften and smooth skin and is not linked to major health risks at the low levels used in these products.

No Known Risk - Reviews and government assessments did not find health hazards above a low level for normal topical use. Safety panels note use limits and some data gaps, but regulators have called it low priority for human health, do not expect it to build up in the body or the environment, and allow limited food uses. Taken together, current evidence does not show any health risks above low for typical use.

Confidence: HIGH

sodium cocoyl isethionate

✅1/10

For babies 6–12 months old this ingredient is considered low risk and is commonly used in gentle cleansers. It is safest when used in products you rinse off, like baby wash or shampoo.

No Known Risk - Reviews by a cosmetic safety review panel and a national environment agency found no significant health hazards. The ingredient is not thought to build up in the body or harm organs, and it is considered safe in products when used at the allowed levels (with different limits for rinse-off versus leave-on products). There are some notes about possible mild irritation and that safety limits are set, but overall no real health risks were identified.

Confidence: MEDIUM

stearyl alcohol

✅1/10

For infants 6–12 months (baby, 6-12 month old), stearyl alcohol is generally low risk when used in small amounts in skin products. It works as a moisturizer helper and is not linked to cancer or long-term body harms, but it can irritate sensitive skin in some babies.

Confidence: HIGH

water

✅0/10

For babies 6-12 months (infants, older babies), plain water used on the skin is safe when it’s clean and part of a baby product. Official assessments say plain water is not expected to cause harm.

No Known Risk - Regulatory reviews (Environment Canada) find plain water is not expected to be toxic, not bioaccumulative, and not an environmental toxin. Safety summaries list no concerns above a low level for organ harm, reproductive effects, or other long‑term risks for topical use, so no specific health risks are identified for use on skin.
