baby skin

The skin of children is distinctly different from that of adults. This warrants special care and use of specific products.

How is it different from adults?

- The skin of a baby is extremely thin and vulnerable. As the materials used are safe and tailored to the needs of your baby.

- It is estimated that the skin in children is not completely defined until 3 years of age. This implies that they are more vulnerable to external aggressions (sun, sudden temperature changes, wind, snow, etc.).

- You must be special attention to skin bum to avoid irritation when diapers. The continuous and daily hygiene is also essential to prevent them.

- The quality and quantity of sebum secretion is also different from adults, so the barrier function of skin is affected.
