Protect your Baby’s Skin with Optiphi Elements Baby & Kids Range
New parents will no doubt know how important it is to protect your baby’s skin while they grow. For both adults and little ones, the skin functions as a barrier between the outside world and the inside of our body. Some of these functions include our skin acting as a physical barrier, thermal protector, chemical barrier to keep pollutants and toxins out of the body, and a biological barrier to protect against microbes and allergens. But how can parents help little ones protect and strengthen this barrier function of this skin? Optiphi‘s new range of skincare products for children may just be the answer.
The skin of babies and young children is 20-30% thinner than that of adults, it is much less resilient than adult skin, and needs specific actives to support and protect, yet gently nourish delicate skin. Young skin is also more susceptible to environmental stressors and hydration issues and needs protection and supplementary hydration to prevent skin concerns like eczema and extreme dryness. During this stage of young lives, targeted skincare products and remedies are needed to keep little skin’s healthy and happy.
While there are many professional, salon-grade skincare products on the market to help teens and adults strengthen and support the skin’s barrier function, there aren’t many that offer this kind of protection for babies and small children. But now, thanks to South African skincare brand, Optiphi, parents have a way to help protect sensitive young skins against environmental factors that may lead to skin concerns down the road.
Specifically formulated to strengthen and support these essential building blocks of the skin, the new Optiphi Elements Baby & Kids range is parents’ new best friend. The entire range has a “Free-from-nasties” formulation and is free from allergens, Paraben, Sulphates, soap, SLS, fragrances, and dyes. It’s also vegan-friendly and tear-free.
The new range of skincare products for children consists of 5 products including the Complete Gentle Wash (a gentle foaming hair and body wash), Nurture & Nourish Lotion (a soothing & balancing moisturiser), Slumber & Soothe Massage Oil, and Skin Shield Protection (a broad-spectrum protection for young and delicate skin).
Offering the perfect mix of products for protecting your child’s skin during these important developmental years, the children’s skincare range is well worth the splurge knowing your child’s skin will be cared for and given a fighting chance against environmental irritants.
The Optiphi Elements Baby & Kids range is available online from the Optiphi online store.
