How to improve children's bad skin

There are many reasons why children have bad skin, which is related to malnutrition and children's lack of attention to skin cleanliness. At this time, we must emphasize nutrition. Parents should pay attention to children's skin cleanliness, clean the sweat on their skin in time, bathe them regularly, and use some baby skin care products. These will help promote the tenderness of the baby's skin. After all, the baby's skin is relatively delicate. If it is not properly conditioned, it may cause such symptoms.

How to improve children's bad skin

1. Skin cleansing:

The first step in skin care is cleansing, and baby's skin is no exception. The climate is cold in winter, and babies are obviously not as active as in summer, and their sweat and sebum secretions are not as vigorous. Generally, it is enough to wash the baby's face once or twice a day. Unless the baby is particularly active and sweats a lot, special cleaning is required. Under normal circumstances, it is more appropriate to bathe the baby once or twice a week. Generally, warm water should be used to wash the baby's hands and face. The water temperature should not be too high. It can be warm when the mother feels it with her hands. If the baby's hands and face are found to be particularly dirty, some cleaning products can be used. It is not good to wash your baby's face and bathe too frequently, especially for babies after 3 months old. Due to the decrease in hormone levels in their bodies, frequent washing will wash away the protective sebum, which can easily cause dry skin, and then symptoms of redness and itching.

2. Baby skin care products selection:

When choosing cleaning products for your baby, just remember the principle of "simple". Generally speaking, the fewer functions other than cleaning, the better. Try not to choose cleansing products with sterilization functions to avoid irritating the baby's delicate skin or causing unnecessary allergies.

3. Moisturizing;

After washing your baby's face with clean water, dry it with a soft towel in time. Sometimes when your baby spits up or drools, you should wipe him/her dry immediately with a clean, soft towel. When wiping, be careful not to use too much force. Press gently with a towel to absorb the moisture. Then don’t forget to apply some moisturizing but non-irritating moisturizer on your baby’s face and hands. Before going out in winter, apply some baby oil or moisturizer to areas where the skin is particularly prone to dryness, such as the cheeks, forehead, back of the hands, buttocks, etc. Do not apply too thickly, but make sure to apply it to the necessary areas. In addition, you should also avoid applying moisturizer to your child in a hurry just a few minutes before going out. The moisturizer applied at this time will quickly evaporate when it comes into contact with the cold wind and lose its effect of moisturizing the skin. The correct way is to apply moisturizer half an hour before going out. In this way, the moisturizer will be fully absorbed and the baby's skin itself will also secrete some oil, so as to achieve the best moisturizing effect.

4. Baby skin care products selection:

Common baby-specific moisturizing products are divided into three types: lotion (body lotion), moisturizing cream and moisturizing oil. Lotion generally contains natural moisturizing ingredients and can effectively moisturize baby's skin; moisturizer generally contains moisturizing factors and is the most commonly used skin care product in autumn and winter; moisturizing oil contains natural mineral oil, which can prevent dryness and cracking, and has a stronger effect in moisturizing the skin. You should choose natural and non-irritating skin care products for children. It is best not to change the brand of baby skin care products frequently to avoid discomfort symptoms such as skin allergies.
