Ingredients Analysis (23 found)

Chlorphenesin
3/10
For adults, chlorphenesin is usually safe in small amounts in skin products. Some people may get skin irritation or an allergic reaction. A few countries limit or restrict how it’s used.
Confidence: HIGH
Octisalate
3/10
For adults: Octisalate used on the skin (in sunscreens and lotions) is generally low to moderately risky when used as directed. Most people tolerate it fine, but there are some notes about it getting into the body, rare allergic reactions, and possible contamination.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Octocrylene
3/10
For adults: Octocrylene is commonly used in sunscreens and is usually considered low risk when used as directed, but it is not risk‑free. Some people can get allergic skin reactions, and studies show it can be absorbed into the body and persist in the environment.
Confidence: HIGH
Avobenzone
2/10
For adults (including teens), avobenzone is usually considered low risk when used in regular sunscreens the way the label says. There are some lab studies and safety reviews that note it can get into the skin and that small risks (like mild irritation or very weak hormone effects in lab tests) have been seen.
Confidence: MEDIUM
Disodium EDTA
2/10
For adults: Disodium EDTA is commonly used to keep cosmetic formulas stable and to help preservatives work. At the small amounts used in skin products it is generally low risk for adults, but it can irritate skin or eyes in some people.
Confidence: HIGH
Phenoxyethanol
2/10
For adults: This preservative is usually safe in skin products when used as directed. Most adults won’t have problems, but it can irritate sensitive skin.
Confidence: HIGH
Sodium Hydroxide
2/10
For adults: usually safe in finished skin products because it’s used in very small amounts and neutralized so the product isn’t harsh. The biggest risk is irritation or burns from concentrated forms or poorly formulated products.
Confidence: HIGH
Alcohol Denat
2/10
For adults, denatured alcohol in skin products is usually low risk. It can dry or irritate skin and can let other ingredients soak in more easily.
Confidence: HIGH

1/10
Widely used film forming agent in cosmetics low risk of irritation safe for adult topical use
Confidence: HIGH
Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice

No Known Risk - Government and industry safety reviews found no clear health hazards for skin use. Tests say it is not likely to build up in the body, not persistent in the environment, and not harmful to organs. Industry reviewers do note limits on how much can be used and some data gaps, but overall the ingredient is rated low concern for topical use.
Confidence: HIGH
Carbomer
1/10
For adults: Carbomer is widely used in lotions, gels and creams and is usually safe when used on normal, unbroken skin. Big safety reviews flag low health concerns for cancer or long-term effects, but they do note two things to watch for: irritation for sensitive people and the possibility of tiny amounts of manufacturing impurities.

Confidence: HIGH
Panthenol
1/10
For adults, panthenol (provitamin B5) is generally safe when used on the skin or hair in regular products. It helps moisturize and soften the skin and is linked to very low health concerns.
No Known Risk - Health and regulatory reviews (including Canadian and U.S. assessments and industry safety panels) find panthenol has no reported hazards above a low level for topical use. It is not expected to harm organs, does not appear to build up in the body or the environment, and common concerns (cancer, allergies, reproductive effects) were rated low. There are some industry notes about safe use levels and a few data gaps, but no higher-level health risks were identified.
Confidence: HIGH
Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate
1/10
For adults (including teenagers and young people), this vitamin C form is generally safe to use on the skin. It’s commonly used to help protect the skin and even out skin tone. Scientific reviewers note low levels of concern for cancer, allergy, and reproductive effects, though there are some gaps in the safety data and possible limits on how concentrated it should be in products.
No Known Risk - Safety reviews find only low-level concerns for cancer, allergies, and reproductive or developmental harm. The main notes are industry-set limits on how much can be used and some data gaps flagged by the cosmetic industry safety panel (CIR). There is no clear evidence of harm at typical topical use, so currently no known health risk for children from this ingredient.
Confidence: MEDIUM

It is approved for limited use in food, classified as not expected to be toxic and a low human-health priority, and not suspected to be an environmental toxin. Cosmetic industry reviewers note only guidance on concentrations or purity. Because no concern was rated above low, no specific risks were identified for babies or children.
