A baby's skin is a protective layer against the outside world and an important source of sensory interaction, arousal, and emotional communication. Because skin provides protection and promotes sensory development, it requires special care and your attentive attention from birth.

Identifying normal infant skin


A normal baby's skin is soft, elastic , and silky to the touch, without any irregularities or obvious signs of dryness or sensitivity.

Understanding normal baby skin


Your baby's skin may look perfect, but it is actually very delicate.

At birth, infants have an immature skin barrier that is highly vulnerable and easily attacked by external factors. They do not reach the first stage of maturity until they are two years old.

From birth to two years old, an infant's skin is not yet able to retain the moisture needed for normal cell function.

Infant skin possesses an unexpected source of power: a lifelong reserve of stem cells that allows the skin to continuously regenerate, but it is extremely fragile before the age of two.

Mustela has spent over a decade researching infant skin, scientifically confirming the unique characteristics of infant skin compared to adult skin.

Meeting the needs of a baby's normal skin


To fully meet the needs of a baby's normal skin, Mustela researchers developed a natural active ingredient: avocado perseose .

It is the perfect ally for baby's skin, protecting it like a shield from external aggressors, helping the skin barrier develop, maintaining moisture, and protecting cellular reserves from daily stress.

This is a patented natural active ingredient that works perfectly with baby's skin, combining high tolerability with clinically proven efficacy.

Moisturizing from birth provides protection, sensory development , and well-being . It's a simple and scientifically proven daily care routine that helps babies grow healthily.
