Caring for Your Skin: What instructions should we give our kids about taking care of their skin properly? One is to gently clean their skin, especially the face, once in the morning and once in the evening, and also after strenuous exercise. Avoid using strong sopas or rough scrubs, especially on young skin. For boys, it’s a good idea not to introduce shaving before it’s necessary, though young boys are always eager to experiment with their fathers’ shavers. For girls, hold off on the use of cosmetics; once they do start using them, choose them carefully: always make sure they are oil-free. Teenagers should avoid sunburns, which can damage the skin and cause even small lesions to grow and become a major problem. Don’t wait to get treatment for acne. It’s a tremendously difficult condition, and it can put unnecessary strain on your teenager’s life. Many treatment options exist, and often tesults are quick to come by. Source: foxnews.com
