Ingredients to watch

Fragrance

moderate

"Fragrance" or "parfum" is one of the biggest red flags in personal care — a single term that can include up to 3,000 different chemicals without any required disclosure. Fragrance is the leading cause of contact allergy in cosmetics. Many fragrance compounds are skin sensitizers and potential endocrine disruptors.

Potential allergenFragrance is particularly problematic for babies and young children whose skin is thinner and more absorbent

SODIUM BENZOATE

moderate

Sodium benzoate is a chemical preservative. When combined with vitamin C (ascorbic acid), it can form benzene — a known carcinogen. It is also linked to hyperactivity in children, leading the UK to recommend removing it from children's foods.
