Avoid controversial baby washes made with surfactants and other ingredients that are too strong and strip the baby’s skin oil and microbiome. These toxic ingredients cause problems with a baby’s scalp and skin.
❌ Fragrance: The word “fragrance” or “parfum” on the product label represents an undisclosed mixture of various scent chemicals.👩🔬Fragrance mixes have been associated with allergies, dermatitis, respiratory distress, and potential effects on the reproductive system! It is not required that manufacturers disclose fragrance ingredients. The International Fragrance Association has a list of over 3,000 ingredients found in fragrance mixes.
❌ Phenoxyethanol: Classified as an irritant and allergen even in concentrations as low as 1%, toxic, and harmful Allowed workplace exposures restricted to low doses. Can have adverse effects on the central and peripheral nervous systems. Phenoxyethanol is linked to allergic contact uritica and dermatitis. Made with a reaction of highly corrosive phenol with carcinogenic ethylene oxide.
❌ Ethylhexylglyceryn: Classified as an irritant, Harmonized classification: This substance causes serious eye damage, Severe eye damage observed in animal testing, classified as a mild skin irritant based on animal tests.

❌ Tetrasodium EDTA: There have been some case reports of sensitive individuals developing eczema after using cream with tetrasodium EDTA, and it’s known to be a potent eye irritant. Listed also with these names: Edetate sodium, Tetrasodium edetate, Tetrasodium salt, TEA-EDTA.
Greenwashing is when a brand pretends to be natural, eco-friendly, green, or safe when it is not. They use misleading marketing claims to convince you to buy their products. They may have some natural or even a few organic ingredients mixed with these controversial ones:
❌ Natural fragrance: Natural fragrance without listing its component ingredients. Since the word “natural” is not regulated by U.S. law, if the brands don’t disclose what is in it, they may have something to hide! You could still find unsafe ingredients such as solvents, pesticides, and preservatives conventionally found inside synthetic fragrances.
❌ Cocamidopropyl Hydroxysultaine: makes the product to foam. Made by reacting sodium bisulfite and epichlorohydrin with fatty acids from coconut oil (mainly lauric acid). It is created with carcinogenic and mutagenic compounds. Epichlorohydrin is an organochloride and probable carcinogen. (Source) Sodium bisulfite is an irritant and mutagen. (Source)
❌ Cocamidopropyl Betaine: May cause sensitization by skin contact. Suspected to be an environmental toxin. Toxicity of the amphoteric surfactant, Cocamidopropyl betaine, to the marine macroalga, Ulva lactuca.

The FDA has generally considered it safe, but no scientific studies were performed to evaluate the safety of MCA when ingested in substantial amounts and with chronic exposure.” Depends on which citric acid method a company wants to use. A synthetic option or a natural one. Synthetic is cheaper. You can ask a company what processes they use. Certificate of Authenticity COA
