Just think, your daughter gets ready and goes to the school function. There is light makeup on the face, and she is smiling very confidently among friends. It seems normal to see, but have you ever thought that to what extent can his soft skin be affected behind these beauty products?
Nowadays the trend of social media is also making a profound impact on children. At a young age, the hobby of makeup is increasing, especially when film stars and influencers are decorated at all times. But dermatologist clearly says that the use of makeup at an early age can harm children’s skin for a long time.
Children’s skin is much more delicate and sensitive than elders. Chemicals, parabens and artificial frayers found in makeup products can immediately affect their skin. Problems like itching, rash and allergies become common on the skin. Skin’s natural shine also ends due to continuous use.
Oil glands are active rapidly in young skin. When the pores are blocked by makeup products, it increases the problem of blackheads, whiteheads and pimples. This is the reason that many times pimples come out on the face of young girls. Doctors believe that the use of cosmetics at a very young age can also increase the risk of skin infection.
The hobby of makeup affects not only physical, but also on a mental level. At a young age, when girls repeatedly start connecting their beauty to makeup, their confidence depends on external things. In a long time this habit can reduce their ability to accept natural beauty. The race of ‘perfect skin’ appearing on social media can push children towards unrealistic expectations.
Dermatologist believes that makeup should not be used regularly before the age of 16–17 years. If ever needed, only light and safe products should be used for children. It is necessary to maintain distance from Foundation, Concealer and Heavy Eye Makeup. Experts also say that children should pay more attention to skin care, such as keeping the face clean, using moisturizer and sunscreen.
