6 Skincare Tips For Kiddos + The "Kitty"
Share
Skincare is a topic of conversation that has been on the tip of everyone's tongue lately. Trendy skincare for the honey pot as well as a resurgence of ancient natural treatments like yoni steams are popping up everywhere. However, when it comes to sensitive skin and sensitive areas, it's imperative to ensure you're using the right soaps for starters.
As with any product, it can be challenging to figure out which one is right for you and your family. This blog post will cover tips and skincare for sensitive skin, and the most sensitive areas.
- Avoid Using Products With Perfume
One of the best ways to keep your skin healthy is by not clogging up pores with products that use perfumes. While these may smell nice, they can cause irritation for some. It's especially common in children because their underdeveloped immune systems are more susceptible to reactions. So instead, shop for all-natural soaps and body creams that are fragrance free or those who use a single scent instead of a blend.

- Don't Skip Out On Moisturizers
Another common mistake is to avoid moisturizers all together. This causes the skin to become dry and itchy, which can lead to bacterial infection or rashes. Moisturizing isn't just for the face; make sure you're applying a cream on your hands, arms, legs, and feet daily as well!
- Shower In Lukewarm Water
Since hot water relaxes the pores for skin to absorb easily, it's best to shower in lukewarm or cool water. This keeps your skin from becoming irritated and prevents dry skin. If you live in a city with freezing Winters, It might seem crazy to imagine taking a cold shower. Consider starting with a hot shower and then slowly cool off the water as your body adjust to the cooler temp.
- Limit Time in The Sun
While it's recommended to get 10 to 30 minutes of midday sun every week to maintain healthy blood levels and increase vitamin D in the sun, you should limit any additional direct exposure. The over exposure to UV rays from the sun can cause skin dryness and irritation. If possible, try wearing long sleeves or hats while spending extended periods in direct sunlight.

- Clean Your Skin Every Day
It's essential to clean your skin every day to remove the oils, dirt, and debris that accumulates throughout the day. This may sound obvious but, with all of the working from home and hybrid learning, we're hearing more and more about people skipping their daily showers. Remember, true moisture and hydration comes from water. Oils and butters will lock it in but, it has to get there. That's your job.
- Use Gentle Skincare Products
One of the most important tips when it comes to skincare for children, sensitive skin, and "down there" is to only use gentle skincare products. You want to find clean, natural brands that work with your specific skin type.
