[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes it's fine to teach good skin care habits now. Acne is a bacterial infection. Good skincare is just part of good hygiene. Sephora is fine. Some products are less than the drugstore. I like the transparency in sourcing and ingredients at Sephora that I don't often find at drugstores. There are so many endocrine disruptors that affect children out there.[/quote]

Ingredients are required by the FDA to be placed on everything you put on or in your body so that’s not accurate.

Cosmetics and skin care products are tightly regulated by the FDA for safety.   I would not buy any products from Shein, Dollar Store or any place similar.    The FDA regulates them but they can’t find everything.   The FDA has found makeup with microbiological contamination in cosmetics coming from China. The FDA found asbestos in City Color Collection makeup.

There are clean products in Sephora.   But not the ones that kids are being sold to.  Drunk Elephant  is being marketed to children as young as 8 years old but it’s full of oils and peels and harsh chemicals.

CeraVe is made in France and some in the US.  It has so many options for teens.  That’s what I got my 7th grader who is starting puberty

I bought some Sol de Janeiro spray and body moisturizer but makeup will come later. I usually hate perfume but she did smell nice.  [/quote]
