My daughter is already really into makeup and hair care and loves to get ready right next to me and feel like a big girl. Unfortunately, she has really sensitive skin that gets red and chapped if she uses harsh ingredients so I can’t share my face products with her. This means I am always on the lookout for great skincare and hair care products that are safe for her to use on her delicate skin but still are fun for her and make her feel like a big girl.
Thank goodness we found the PTPA Winning Ottilie and Lulu, the makers of skin and hair care products specially formulated for girls aged 7-14 that are in between the “kid stage” but not quite ready for adult products. This is the perfect time to help them develop their own morning and nighttime routines, which will help them care for their skin as they move into their teen years. Each of Ottilie & Lulu’s products are ideal for younger girls as they contain vitamins and anti-oxidants to clean, protect and soothe their delicate skin.
When I was offered the opportunity to review products from Ottilie & Lulu, I knew this would be perfect for our morning ritual as my daughter get ready for school beside me. Once the samples arrived, I was really excited that they look like real skincare products like I might use, but they are designed with young girls in mind and have real girls right on the packaging. I love that she gets so excited to use them and that she feels like such a big girl having her own special skincare set.
Although feeling like a “big girl” and developing her own beauty routine are wonderful, I love that the Ottilie & Lulu set was the perfect chance to teach my daughter about skincare that can help save her life. I’ve heard the statistic numerous times now that says that 80% of the damage done to skin happens before the age of 17, and that just scares me immensely. While I am diligent with sunscreen and sun protection, I love that the Ottilie & Lulu set opened the door to talking about the ways that she can protect herself if I’m not around.
The Ottilie & Lulu Essentials Gift Set we reviewed includes the Everyday Facial Moisturizer & Sunscreen SPF 20 (2,5 fl oz/75 ml), Clean Skin Face Wipes (30 Wipes), and Moisturizing Lip Balm Ball SPF 20 in a white polka dot organza bag. Although we love the entire Ottilie & Lulu Essentials Gift Set, our favorite product is the Clean Skin Face Wipes that are made with 100% cotton and are incredibly soft. Since I use makeup remover wipes, this has been something my daughter had been requesting for a while now and I had thought it would be nearly impossible to find for young girls that wouldn’t dry out and irritate.
If you have a young daughter between 7-14 years of age {approximately}, I would highly recommend picking up some Ottilie & Lulu products to help make the morning and evening face and skincare routine fun. Your daughter will love that they are just like your beauty routine and you will love that they don’t contain all those harsh ingredients that can harm her skin. And, you can both feel good knowing you are laying the foundation for a lifetime of protecting her skin and developing good habits.
Buy It: You can purchase the Face Essentials Gift Set at Ottilieandlulu.com { with free shipping on orders of $25.00 or more}. You will also find them available for purchase on Amazon.com.
