Before climbing into bed each night, Naiya White goes through her meticulous skincare routine. First, there is the Evereden multi-vitamin face wash (for “nourishing”), followed by a dab of Aquaphor healing ointment under her eyes (for “smooth” skin) and a smear of Laneige lip mask in her favourite flavours of vanilla and candy cane (to “boost moisture and improve firmness”). A coat of Evereden moisturiser completes the routine. Naiya is ten. She is a “Sephora kid”, one of a generation of American tweens and teenagers for whom anti-ageing and beauty products, of the kind sold by the beauty chain Sephora, have become a staple of everyday life. Living in Grand Junction, Colorado, Naiya spends her weekends shopping at Sephora, a high-end French chain popular in the US, and Ulta, an American cosmetic store, with her mother, Ashley Paige, 37, a brand strategist. “We go pretty often — about three times a month,” the fourth-grader said.
She is far from alone.
The aisles of beauty shops across America are increasingly filled with girls — and boys — as young as nine, looking for moisturisers, toners, cleansers, face masks and, increasingly, anti-ageing serums. As they fill their baskets, concern is growing among dermatologists. They say that potent beauty products, often sold under the anti-ageing umbrella, could be seriously damaging to children’s skin.
