A child's skin is delicate as it is but sometimes between playing outside, school germs, etc. you may find they are coming home with "baby breakouts". Now is the time to start a cleansing routine. My grandma instilled in my brain, "brush and wash". Every morning and night I brush my teeth and wash my face. Washing your face is an important habit to start teaching young. Washing allergens, germs, dirt, and grime away can lead to clearer skin tone, softer texture, and so many other things.

If you are looking for a gentle but effective cleanser for your child this list is comprised of products worth looking into. I have used most of them myself and have found they work wonders.

Purpose Gentle Cleansing Wash by Johnson & Johnson - This is, along with all others in this post, a drugstore find and I go back to this every once in a while when my skin requires something simple and straight to the point. It works great for taking off makeup (think Summer face painting and Halloween makeup).
