Your baby's skin is thin, dry and delicate
You may think that babies' skin is so soft and plump that they don't need any special care! Actually, the fact is that their skin is only half as thick as adult skin (about 1 mm), produce less sebum, and their barrier function is still immature. In addition, while the head, forehead and eyebrows are rich in sebum during the first month of life, the cheeks and stomach are very dry.
Moreover, because the skin is so thin, it is easily irritated by the rubbing of clothing and diapers, and dirt, germs, and other allergenic and irritating substances can enter through the broken barrier function. In addition to washing, cleaning, and moisturizing, it is important to choose the right detergent to keep your baby's skin healthy.
The best time to start taking care is right after birth
You may wonder, wouldn't it spoil the skin if you had to provide daily moisturizing care to your newborn baby? However, it is scientifically proven that using a moisturizer for infants and toddlers can reduce the incidence of atopic diseases. Moisturizing is especially important for the baby's delicate skin, which is prone to problems. Clean and dry the baby's head and forehead, which are rich in oil, and moisturize the entire body with lotions and creams, especially the dry cheeks and stomach.
