What happened: The market for children's skincare products is rapidly growing, driven by social media trends. Experts warn this could lead to unhealthy obsessions with appearance among young girls.
Why it matters:
- Increased skincare use at a young age may affect children's physical and mental health.
- Social media pressures contribute to rising concerns about body image and self-esteem in girls.
MNN Take: The popularity of skincare among children reflects wider social media influence on youth behaviour, prompting experts to highlight potential long-term risks.
