skin kids are so thin and vulnerable, which is much worse than in adults, may protect against external crumbs "aggressors".Due to the fact that the level of acidity (pH) is closer to neutral, but not acidic medium, the skin of babies is more vulnerable to infection.The water content therein is significantly higher, while fat - is lower because the sebaceous glands in children are insufficient and the protective film is very thin fat.As a result, the baby's skin dries quickly, and all sorts of misfortunes (including frost and wind) affect it more than us.
