french lavender oil

⚠️5/10

For babies 6–12 months (infants), lavender oil used on the skin is low-risk for most but not without concerns. It can sometimes cause skin irritation and, in rare cases reported in children, has been linked to hormone-related changes. Because infants are still developing, we treat this ingredient with moderate caution.

Hormones - Published medical case reports have linked lavender oil use to early breast changes in children (prepubertal gynecomastia and premature thelarche). Laboratory and clinical studies have also shown hormone activity, so this oil may affect hormone-driven growth in babies and young kids (based on published case reports and endocrine-activity studies).

Confuse Hormones - Research shows lavender oil can act like estrogen in lab tests and is tied to cases of abnormal breast development in children. That means it can mimic or confuse natural hormone signals in the body (based on case reports and endocrine-disruption studies).

Confidence: MEDIUM

phytic acid

✅3/10

For babies 6–12 months, phytic acid in small amounts in finished baby products is usually low risk, but it can sometimes irritate sensitive skin and can be absorbed through the skin. Be cautious because some reviews note very small signs of hormone-related effects in tests.

Confidence: MEDIUM

propanediol

✅3/10

For babies 6–12 months (infant, baby, toddler), propanediol is usually low risk when used at the levels found in baby lotions and wipes. But it can sometimes irritate sensitive skin and can make skin absorb other ingredients more easily, so we remain careful.

Confidence: MEDIUM

Aloe barbadensis leaf juice

✅2/10

For babies 6 to 12 months old, aloe vera leaf juice used on the skin is usually safe when it is part of a product made for baby skin and used in small amounts. It helps moisturize and soothe, but a small number of babies may be sensitive.

Confidence: MEDIUM

apricot kernel oil

✅2/10

Prunus Armeniaca Kernel Oil is apricot kernel oil used as an emollient generally safe for baby skin with rare allergy risk

No Known Risk - Apricot kernel oil is generally considered safe for topical use on baby skin, with no strong evidence linking it to irritation, allergies, hormone disruption, or other health risks when used as directed. It is widely used in baby care products and is not banned or restricted in major countries.

Confidence: HIGH

benzoic acid

✅2/10

Benzoic acid is a preservative used in some lotions and creams. For babies aged 6–12 months it is usually low risk when present at the low levels used in baby products, but a small number of infants may get skin irritation or an allergic rash.

Confidence: HIGH

mango fruit extract

✅2/10

Mangifera Indica Fruit Extract is mango extract used for skin conditioning generally safe but rare allergy risk in sensitive infants

Confidence: MEDIUM

microcrystalline cellulose

✅2/10

For a baby 6–12 months old, this ingredient is generally low risk when used in normal baby lotions or creams. It’s an inert, plant-based powder used to thicken or hold a product together. Still, a small number of people can develop a skin allergy to it, so we take extra care with infants.

Confidence: MEDIUM

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.

No Known Risk - Public safety reviews find no real health worries for topical use. A national food-safety authority lists it as safe for limited food use, a government environment agency says it is not expected to harm organs or the environment, and an industry safety review notes only routine limits on how it is used. Because these official reviews do not flag any serious concerns, there are no known risks for children from normal topical use.

Confidence: HIGH

avocado oil

✅1/10

Persea Gratissima Oil is avocado oil used as a moisturizer generally safe for baby skin with low allergy risk

No Known Risk - Avocado oil is generally considered safe for topical use on babies. There is no strong evidence linking it to irritation, allergies, hormone disruption, or other health risks in infants. It is not banned or restricted, and is not associated with long-term or systemic health effects. As with any oil, rare allergic reactions are possible, but these are not common or specific to avocado oil.

No Known Risk - Safety reviews and ingredient assessments find only low-level concerns for this papaya fruit extract (for things like cancer, allergies, and reproductive effects) and note only some use limits.

It is generally well-tolerated, even on sensitive skin, and is not associated with any of the listed risk categories.

Confidence: HIGH

sclerotium gum

✅1/10

For babies aged 6–12 months (older infants, babies who are crawling or toddling), sclerotium gum is generally very low risk when it’s in baby lotions, wipes or creams. It’s used to make products feel smooth and stay mixed, and it doesn’t tend to get into the skin.

No Known Risk - Available safety information shows only low concerns for cancer, allergies/immune effects, developmental or reproductive effects, and use restrictions. An expert cosmetic safety review notes recommended limits and impurity controls, and some verified-product programs require manufacturers to provide safety substantiation before using this ingredient. Taken together, current data do not identify any risks above low, so no specific health hazards are indicated.

Confidence: HIGH

shea butter

✅1/10

sorbitan caprylate

✅1/10

For babies 6–12 months (infant, baby, crawler), Sorbitan Caprylate is usually low risk when it’s in small amounts in creams or lotions. It’s used to help creams stay mixed. Safety reviewers find little evidence it causes cancer, developmental problems, or common allergic reactions.

No Known Risk - For topical use, safety reviews found only low-level concerns for cancer, allergies, and reproductive effects. Industry safety assessments note some data gaps about exact use concentrations and recommend limits in products, but they did not identify any health hazards at typical use. Based on the available safety reviews, no specific risks have been found for normal skin use.

Confidence: MEDIUM

sorbitan olivate

✅1/10

For babies 6–12 months old (infants and toddlers), Sorbitan Olivate is generally low risk when used in normal baby creams, lotions, and wipes. It is made from sorbitan and olive fatty acids and is used to blend oils and water.

No Known Risk - Reviewed safety information shows only low-level concerns for cancer, allergies/immune effects, and reproductive or developmental effects. An industry safety panel (Cosmetic Ingredient Review) notes data gaps and recommends limits on concentration or product types, but did not identify higher-level hazards for normal topical use. Based on that, there are no known health risks above low at typical use.

Confidence: MEDIUM

aqua

✅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.
