As a parent, you have the chance to guide your daughter through puberty and help her feel informed and confident about personal hygiene, especially when she’s nearing her first period. This helps her feel prepared and supported as her body begins to change. Apart from having the ‘talk’, you can also gift this fun-educational book on puberty to her that will also teach her and offer practical personal hygiene tips.

Personal hygiene is important for a healthy and disease-free life and it is best for your daughter to learn this early on and take measures to maintain optimum levels of health and fitness. When it comes to skincare, something that young girls are insecure about, there are certain tips that your daughter can benefit from to take care of her skin. These tips are:

Cleansing

Cleansing the skin is the foremost step and is an integral part of any skincare routine and a must to teach your daughter. It helps get rid of excess oil and dirt and dust especially for teens who spend a lot of time outdoors or are active throughout the day. You can get your daughter a cleanser that suits her skin; there are special cleansers made for extra-oily skin, dry skin and others. Washing her face twice a day, especially at night, would help keep oil under control and avoid pimples.

Moisturising

Contrary to myths, moisturising is important for all skin types including the oily skin type as well because with cleansers and other products you strip the skin of its natural oils, so it’s important to replenish moisture otherwise, it may overproduce oil to compensate. For your daughter’s skin, consider her age (also keeping in mind her skin type) and select a light moisturiser that will not be gentle on her skin while keeping it moisturised.

Acne Treatment

Many teens feel self-conscious about acne, and a gentle skincare routine can help them feel more comfortable; you can let her try some acne-fighting treatments with ingredients like benzoyl peroxide. Explain that popping pimples can cause them to spread or worsen.  all over her face. This can help her understand what works for her skin and make informed choices about skincare.

Beyond Skincare Routines

Conclusion

Taking care of your daughter's skin is an important part of her overall health and hygiene. Several tips for skin care such as cleansing, moisturizing, and sun protection emphasize the importance of developing good habits early on and choosing products that are safe and appropriate for your daughter's age and skin type.
