Ingredients Analysis (18 found)

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

Viola Tricolor Extract

✅3/10

For babies 6–12 months old this plant extract is likely low risk when used in small amounts on the skin, but there isn’t much data in babies and some animal studies showed effects on the nervous system and immune system. That means we should be careful.

Confidence: MEDIUM

Sunflower Seed Oil Unsaponifiables

✅1/10

For a 6–12 month old baby (infant), sunflower seed oil unsaponifiables are generally very safe when used on the skin. They are natural plant-based moisturizing ingredients and are not linked to serious harm in normal topical use.
