Hi,
The cold
, snowy
winter feels amazing!. However, winter doesn’t make our skin feel amazing, sad! but true
. The cold and dry air in winter takes a toll on the child’s skin, which is every mother’s nightmare!. Babies, toddlers and children have skin that is thin and sensitive which makes it more vulnerable to changes in weather.



The harsh winter climate causes many skin issues for children such as dry & itchy skin, rough skin, chapped skin, winter rash and aggravated skin conditions such as eczema, diaper rash, dribble rash(in teething babies).
In winters
, children’s skin is bound to get dry every now and then. However, following a few Do’s and Don’ts can help a lot to keep your child’s skin healthy, radiant and soft.

1. Dress winter smart. Use hats, gloves
, socks
and scarfs
to stay warm and protected from a red, irritated, dry, chapped face, lips and skin.

3. Drinking water
, fruit juices

play an important role in keeping the child’s skin healthy, glowy and soft.
