Have also got dd

henna tattoo kit.

Lots of people have said skincare. Can anyone recommend a good product? DD isn't into makeup yet (she's 11 and a half), but she does like a good moisturiser. But when I looked in Boots, everything seemed to be anti -ageing ... hardly necessary for her!

@Squiblet I swear by dermalogica and they do a good range for teens/young skin including SPF moisturiser. Both DD and I have sensitive skin but never had a reaction to dermalogica.

My Dd has Cerave which is very gentle and basic and has no “active” ingredients like some of the trendier brands that she might like.

She does have a couple of things from byoma as well but again, it’s juts simple stuff.

Thanks for replies! Spots & stripes looks cute - more gift-y than Cerave which we all use after the shower anyway
