The Back to School season is arguably one of the most stressful times of the year. Coordinating school shopping trips, purchasing shiny new supplies, and keeping your child’s schedule organized takes its toll. But, no matter how busy you get, you can’t forget about your child’s skin. The skin is the body’s largest and most visible organ, so keep it healthy and strong throughout the school year! Our roundup of 5 skin care products for back to school will help your child maintain healthy skin all year long.
1.) Gentle Face Wash
When your child starts their day by washing their face, they set themselves up for a day of beautiful skin. (Plus, splashing cool water on your face helps you wake up, so this is perfect if your child isn’t a morning person.) Choose a wash that’s gentle, pH-balanced, and proven to safeguard their skin against skin conditions! Sebamed’s Liquid Face and Body Wash keeps sensitive skin in mind. It bolsters your child’s skin barrier, heals skin irritation, and prevents dry, itchy skin.
2.) Hand Sanitizer
It’s no secret that schools are teeming with germs. Help your child stay healthy by packing a small container of hand sanitizer in their bag. We recommend having them use it before meals, but more frequently if one of their close friends is ill. You’ll rest easy knowing that they won’t be bringing the germs home to the rest of the family.
3.) Hand Cream
With changing temperatures just around the corner, chances are your child will have to deal with dry hands at some point. If left untreated, dry skin can become flaky, crack, and bleed. A good hand lotion is in order! Slipping our Hand and Nail Balm into your child’s school bag helps them fight the dryness and keeps their hands soft.
4.) Lip Balm
As with dry hands, chapped lips will run rampant as soon as temperatures fall. Bleeding, dry lips are incredibly uncomfortable, so adding a lip balm to your child’s morning routine and encouraging them to drink water throughout the day gives them the relief they need.
5.) Acne Spot Treatment
If your child starts to see breakouts appearing on their face, it’s time to introduce a gentle acne treatment into their skin care routine. We recommend beginning with a spot treatment that zaps pimples overnight. Our Clear Face Acne Spot Gel heals pimples quickly and won’t lead to flaky patches on the skin.
