The weather in winter is very dry. What are some ways to protect your baby’s skin?
Methods for baby skin care 1. Skin cleaning
The first step in skin care is cleaning, and the same is true for baby's skin. During the transition period between autumn and winter, the weather may be relatively cold, and the baby's activities are obviously not as much as in summer, and the sweat and sebaceous gland secretion are not as abundant. Generally, it is enough to wash the baby's face once or twice a day, unless the amount of exercise is particularly heavy. In addition to sweating a lot, special cleaning is required.
Usually, it is more appropriate to bathe the baby once a day or once every two days. Warm water is generally used to disinfect the baby's hands and cleanse the face. The temperature of the water should not be too high, as long as the mother feels it is gentle. When taking a bath, it is best for babies under 1 year old to use low-foaming shampoo and shower gel. 1 Babies over 10 years old can use baby's low-foaming shampoo and shower gel separately. Low-foaming is healthier, gently cleans the baby's skin, forms a protective film, and strengthens the baby's thin skin. 2. Facial care
Baby’s skin is thin and tender, and the oil on the surface of the skin is relatively lacking. Remember to apply moisturizer after cleansing to moisturize and protect the baby’s sebum film. 3. Hand care
Every time you wash your hands, use baby green plant softening soap to clean your little hands and moisturize the skin. Wipe them after cleaning, and remember to apply moisturizing lotion for protection. Little hands. 4. Arm care
The skin of the arms must be kept comfortable. Due to the weather, the baby's skin will become more sensitive, so mothers should touch it themselves when choosing diapers. Diapers that are soft and can maintain high efficiency and comfort can make children feel very comfortable. 5. Foot care
It is important to keep the baby's feet warm and cold-proof. Since the feet have an inseparable nervous system connection with the respiratory mucosa, once the feet catch cold, it is easy to cause fever and cold. 6. How to take care of your baby when going out
Before going out, apply some moisturizing lotion to your baby on areas where the skin is particularly prone to dryness, such as cheeks, forehead, arms, arms, etc. In addition, It is also necessary to avoid hurriedly applying skin care oil to your child a few minutes before leaving the house. The lotion applied at this time will quickly evaporate and lose the effect of moisturizing the skin as soon as it comes into contact with the cold wind. The correct behavior is to Apply lotion half an hour after leaving the house. In this way, the lotion is fully absorbed and the baby's skin itself also secretes some oil, so that good skin care effects can be achieved.
Therefore, if the baby's skin is dry in winter, it is necessary to provide the baby with timely moisture and a nutritious and humid home atmosphere. At the same time, the baby's skin should not be cleaned too much to avoid damaging the sebaceous glands that protect the skin.
