It seems like just yesterday they were obsessed with dolls and superheroes. Now, Generation Alpha is reaching for your skincare products with the same fervour. While it’s adorable to see them mimic their grown-up routines, it’s important to remember that young skin has different needs. Harsh adult skincare products can irritate delicate skin, leading to potential problems. To prevent your precious potions from ending up in the wrong hands (or faces), we’ve rounded up five gentle yet effective skincare options perfect for young skin.
Evolve Organic Beauty Gentle Cleansing Melt
Protect your precious skincare from tiny hands with Evolve’s Gentle Cleansing Melt. This luxurious balm transforms into a creamy milk, gently removing makeup and impurities without stripping the skin. Packed with nourishing organic baobab oil, it hydrates and soothes, making it perfect for even the most sensitive young skin. Its gentle formula is kind to eyes and leaves skin feeling soft and refreshed. This cleansing treat will have your kids begging for their own skincare routine – without raiding your stash.
REN Clean Skincare Evercalm Gentle Cleansing Milk
Keep those kids away from your cleanser with REN’s Evercalm Gentle Cleansing Milk. This ultra-gentle formula is perfect for young, sensitive skin. Packed with soothing blackcurrant and sea buckthorn oils, it removes dirt and impurities without stripping away moisture. Its calming properties will leave skin feeling soft, refreshed, and protected. This mild cleanser is the perfect introduction to skincare for young ones, without compromising on quality.
CeraVe Micellar Cleansing Water
Prevent your Gen-Alphas from raiding your skincare cabinet with CeraVe’s Micellar Cleansing Water. This gentle, fragrance-free cleanser effectively removes makeup and impurities without drying out the skin. Formulated with three essential ceramides, it helps restore and maintain the skin’s natural barrier. Perfect for sensitive and acne-prone skin, this water-based cleanser is a great starting point for a young person’s skincare routine.
REN Clean Skincare Perfect Canvas Clean Jelly Oil Cleanser
Keep your kid’s skin happy and healthy with REN’s Perfect Canvas Clean Jelly Oil Cleanser. This innovative formula transforms from a jelly to an oil, gently melting away makeup and impurities without drying out the skin. Packed with nourishing oils like sunflower and grape seed, it leaves skin feeling soft, hydrated, and refreshed. This multi-tasking cleanser is perfect for young skin as it removes even the toughest makeup while providing essential moisture.
Dermalogica Body Hydrating Cream
While Dermalogica is known for its professional-grade skincare, their Body Hydrating Cream is a gentler option suitable for younger skin. This rich, yet lightweight cream provides intense hydration without feeling greasy. Formulated with soothing botanical extracts, it helps to restore skin’s natural moisture balance. Perfect for post-shower or anytime the skin needs an extra boost of hydration. While it’s a great option for overall body moisture, it’s important to remember that face and body skin have different needs, so a dedicated facial moisturiser is still essential.
