Baby’s skin – different from adult skin
Your baby’s skin is something very special because its range of functions is not yet fully developed. With the right care, you can support the development of your baby’s skin.
Thinner horny layer
- The protective horny layer in baby skin is approx. 20 % thinner than in adult skin. Furthermore, the gaps between the horny cells are larger.
- Baby skin loses moisture rapidly.
Fewer active sebaceous glands
- Your baby’s sebaceous glands are not yet as active – they produce fewer lipids; the protective acid mantle still needs to develop fully.
- Baby skin is drier and more sensitive.
Milk protein – the best from milk for healthy baby skin
Natural milk protein is the central, particularly skin-caring ingredient in sanosan. Midwives often recommend a splash of breast milk in the bath water for mild cleansing. We make use of this healing effect of milk: our products contain valuable natural milk protein.
Milk protein – for loving baby care:
- It acts like a protective layer on the skin and thereby helps to protect it from environmental influences.
- It supports the skin’s natural moisture retention factors and thus saves it from drying out.
- It helps with the development of a natural skin protection barrier and keeps the skin soft and supple.
