Lip Care Tips for Kids
Choose a simple, organic formula
Children's skin is more sensitive than adults', and kids are more likely to lick or ingest lip products. An organic lip balm with food-safe ingredients like Numbrrrz ensures safety even if they eat some.
Use fragrance-free for young children
Essential oils can be irritating for very young skin. Numbrrrz Unscented, with just 4 organic ingredients, is the safest choice for children under 6. Older kids can enjoy the scented varieties.
Teach them to apply instead of lick
Most kids' lip dryness comes from constant lip licking. Teach them to reach for lip balm when their lips feel dry instead of licking. Making it a fun habit helps break the cycle.
Apply before outdoor play
Kids spend more time outdoors than most adults, exposed to sun, wind, and cold. Apply lip balm before recess, sports, and outdoor play to protect their lips from the elements.
Keep a tube in their backpack or lunchbox
If the lip balm is accessible, kids are more likely to use it. Pack a tube in their school bag so they can reapply after lunch and before afternoon recess.
