Kids at Sephora

[Amreetbahia]

Esthetician here, There are kids roaming around Sephora and Ulta stores buying anti aging products and products they don't need. See, kids skin barriers are developing and they are very delicate so you need to buy products that are safe. If your child goes to Sephora or Ulta, make sure to see what ingredients there are in it. Things to avoid:

- AHAs, LHAs, BHAs (BHAs can be used if your child has some or a lot of acne)

- Retinols, Retinoids, Vitamin Cs

- High amounts of fragrance

Now here are some of the brands that kids like to find

- Drunk Elephant 

- Glow Recipe 

- Tower 28

- Bubble 

- CeraVe

- Byoma

There is more that's just what I remember 

Now some products from these brands are actually fine for your child if they are interested in skincare and that's not a bad thing! Here are popular products that are OKAY for your child: 

Cleansers & Makeup Removers

- Glow Recipe Avocado Cleanser

- Glow Recipe Papaya Cleansing Balm

- Drunk Elephant micellar water 

- Drunk Elephant Jelly Cleanser

- Drunk Elephant miracle butter

Moisturizers & Sunscreens

As a 34F I would like to say that adults hating on kids is just disgusting in my opinion there is no reason to say that abt them you are not their parent it is not your decision pls mind your business next time adults should not hate or hate on children its disgusting!

keep this in mind next time you would like to hate!

You have a good day

I agree I think it’s the parents place to step in and say something about what there using on there skin not some random person saying there opinion even if it’s right just mind your business and don’t worry about kids that arnt your children

@RoseAnders I'm trying to find the best for children. I'm not trying to hate at all! It's great that kids are interested in skincare it's just that they buy stuff they don't need and trash the testers.

I’ve had seen kids there before and it’s not pretty… I got pushed around when I was trying to buy some drunk elephant hydration serum and I got pushed around and didn’t get the serum

@Amreetbahia Thank you for posting this. I have 2 kiddos and would never buy them expensive skincare or into the hype. I keep it simple with Aveeno, Cetaphil and Cerave.

@SportyGirly125 No problem! It's great you keep your children's skincare simple. Make sure to watch what your child watch on YouTube and social media and limit their time. If somehow they do get interested in skincare that's viral, feel free to come back to this post and make sure to read the ingredients list. Just to sum it up, stay away from retinol, Retinoids, Vitamin Cs, PHAs, BHAs, LHAs.

@Amreetbahia oh yes I already know about those things.
