Your skin is as smooth as the baby’s skin – I guess we all wish to hear that. What decides about the good shape of your skin? Genetics is surely responsible but we should keep in mind that the right skin care, free of artificial ingredients, silicones and parabens, is able to upgrade the condition of the skin. It is common knowledge that kids products are safer than ‘mature’ cosmetics plus their ingredients are chosen with exquisite care. Will they give equally good results for mature and young skin? Some of them are worth adding to daily care. Here are five brilliant cosmetics both for babies and adults.
1. Natural Oils
Baby’s skin is extremely fragile: its protective coat doesn’t work as effectively as in the case of grown-ups, therefore protecting it from dryness, damage and irritation is of paramount importance. Natural oils are cut out for that – both safe and really effective. It turns out that oils are perfectly suitable for ageing skin care: delivering protection, soothing, moisturising, providing valuable vitamins (e.g. A, C, E) and essential fatty acids (EFA). Regularly used in skin care routine, they smooth fine lines and balance the sebum secretion. You can rub natural oils in your hair to prevent dryness and damage. Rubbed in scalp, they reinforce hair bulbs, enhance growth and hinder hair loss.
2. Baby’s Powder
In baby’s skin care, a powder is to protect from the diaper rash. For adults, it fulfills the role of a shoe talc. Baby’s powder saves skin from excessive sweating and moisture, leaves feet smooth, soft and nice to the touch, at the same time keeping an unpleasant smell away. The product is ideal for protecting feet from blisters and irritations so always remember to take it with you for all summer trips, hiking or several-hour sightseeing. Thanks to the baby’s powder, your feet will be fresh and you’ll avoid wounds and blisters.
Replacing a dry shampoo is another benefit of a baby’s powder. If your hair is prone to oiliness and you don’t feel like washing it on vacation – keep it fresh and tame your hairdo by massaging some baby’s powder to the roots of hair. The talc will absorb moisture and prevent excessive sebum secretion. You’ll enjoy an alluring and fresh-looking hairstyle longer. Just remember to wash your hair on the next day and not to add another dose of the powder.
3. Anti-UV Radiation Products
We have no idea why adults persistently neglect high-factor sunblocks. After all, harmful UVA and UVB radiation is the cause of many diseases (including cancers). It also triggers an irreversible decomposition of collagen and elastin in skin, in other words – causes intensive ageing and wrinkles.
Not only are kids sunblocks composed of high-quality and safe ingredients but also feature a high UV filter. Applying them both to the body and face skin is a great idea. As a result, your skin won’t get dry on vacation; your face won’t be decorated with a net of wrinkles.
4. Body Washes for Babies
Not just for body washing but also (mostly) for face cleansing. They are amazing for adult’s skin, too. Why? It turns out such products are safe, mild, brilliantly-cleansing and not causing irritation, as well as feature really good ingredients. Most of soothing substances included in these products go along with the skin of adults. If the cleansers you use make your face extremely dry, try delicate foaming washes designed for babies. They are formulated without comedogenic and irritative substances and free of synthetics. Additionally, vegan or eco-friendly cosmetics for kids are often much cheaper than the ones dedicated to adults and launched by renowned brands.
5. Wet Wipes
Baby wipes are the real blessing – versatile, suitable for body and face care, effectively cleansing and soothing irritations. There are various types of wet wipes on the market, having different purposes so while getting ready for a trip, we’re often forced to buy a few different packets of wipes for make-up removal, feminine care, refreshing, etc. Baby wipes turn out to work great fulfilling all of these functions, soothing and not causing irritations at the same time. Perfect for the whole family, delivering care and freshness from head to toe.
TIP! Many women use wet wipes for… curling their hair!
If you also wish to have stunning and (thanks to the included ingredients) moisturised, shiny curls, wind strands onto the folded baby wipes, roll them up to reach the scalp and tie the ends of the wipes up like in traditional curling pins. In the morning, take the wipes off and gently run your fingers through the curls.
