Decode Label Safety Score
How we got 3.5 ShowHide
Methodology v3.1 (updated 8 Oct 2026) — what changed
The score is capped for a specific safety reason, set out below. This baby bathing bar uses Sodium Coco-Sulfate as its primary cleansing agent, which is a harsh surfactant with irritation potential, especially concerning for a product intended for children's delicate skin. While it includes several beneficial botanical extracts and oils, these are present in trace amounts and do not offset the primary surfactant concern. The product also contains Tetrasodium EDTA and Tetrasodium Etidronate, which are chelating agents with environmental concerns. Parents seeking the mildest possible cleansing for their children may wish to consider products with gentler surfactant systems.

Harsh surfactant in baby soap; trace botanicals, chelating agents present
The score is capped for a specific safety reason, set out below. This baby bathing bar contains Sodium Coco-Sulfate, a primary cleansing agent known for its irritation potential, which is a significant concern for a product designed for children's sensitive skin. While the product lists several botanical extracts and oils, these are present in very small amounts and do not meaningfully contribute to the formulation's benefits. It also includes chelating agents like Tetrasodium EDTA and Tetrasodium Etidronate, which raise environmental concerns.

Ingredient Concerns safety database
Sources cited below may be Indian (FSSAI) or international (EU, US, WHO, IARC) — an international classification or law is evidence, not an Indian regulatory finding.
Sodium Coco-Sulfate
Sodium Coco-Sulfate is made by sulfating whole coconut oil rather than isolated lauric acid, so it is largely sodium lauryl sulfate with a tail of longer-chain sulfates. It is routinely marketed as the gentle, natural alternative to SLS — it is chemically the same class of detergent, and the "SLS-free" claim built on it is the reason it is worth naming.

Claim check
Front-of-pack marketing claims checked against this product's actual ingredients and nutrition. "Can't verify" means the label does not provide enough information to check the claim — it is not the same as the claim being false.
This is a promotional offer that cannot be verified from the ingredient list or other product information provided.
This describes the product’s packaging or its category, not a testable attribute of the food itself — so it’s classified separately rather than flagged as a doubtful claim.
The claim 'SOAP 100% FREE' is unclear in its meaning and cannot be verified from the provided ingredient list.
The ingredient list does not explicitly state 'fragrance' or 'parfum', but it also does not explicitly state 'no added fragrance', so this claim cannot be fully verified or refuted from the provided information.
The pH level is a characteristic that cannot be verified from the ingredient list.
This claim refers to the packaging material, which cannot be verified from the ingredient list.
This is a suitability claim that cannot be verified from the ingredient list.
These are functional claims that cannot be verified from the ingredient list.
This is a functional claim that cannot be verified from the ingredient list.
Punica Granatum Seed Oil (Pomegranate) and Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil are listed in the ingredients with an asterisk, which typically denotes organic ingredients.
Read straight from the back-of-pack photo — quantities, sections and any disguised terms, so the small print can’t hide behind the marketing.

Trace amounts: some named ingredients appear in token quantities or low in the list. At these concentrations a meaningful benefit is unlikely, and their front-of-pack prominence may not reflect their level in the formulation.
In label order — normally largest quantity first. Select a row for the full write-up and sources.
Fragrance allergens are substances EU cosmetics rules require to be named on the label (such as Limonene and Linalool). Fragrant botanicals such as essential oils are grouped with them because they can naturally contain such substances, but they are not on that list. They matter mainly for people with fragrance allergies or already-sensitive skin — not a general-population safety issue. Each named allergen takes a small deduction from the ingredient score, and a high count can cap it; fragrant botanicals take none. Naming them on the label is a transparency positive.

About this analysis: Based on declared label information and available evidence. Decode Label does not independently laboratory-test products, and a score is not a regulatory determination or medical advice.
Disclaimer: Safety scores are Decode Label-generated assessments based on publicly available regulatory data (FSSAI, WHO, EFSA, IARC) and peer-reviewed research. They are not a substitute for professional medical advice, and they are not a regulatory determination, a laboratory safety certification or a medical diagnosis. Ingredient safety can vary by individual health conditions, concentration, and usage context. Decode Label is an independent information service and scores every brand by the same rules. No brand pays for or influences its score. Our founder also founded the personal-care brand Botani Bestie (see our story); its products are scored exactly like everyone else's. Data limitations: This assessment is based on the information declared on the product label and the evidence sources above — Decode Label does not independently laboratory-test this product. Ingredient concentrations, sourcing and manufacturing can vary between batches and are not always disclosed. A finding that is not shown here means it was not identified from the available label information, not that it has been ruled out.
