When the skin barrier is vulnerable, it can quickly lose moisture and environmental factors or external irritants can more easily penetrate the skin’s protective outer layers. This further upsets the natural balance and disrupts skin cell renewal, which can cause skin to become dry, itchy and irritated. A baby’s skin is 20% thinner and more delicate than an adult’s because its protective barrier is still developing throughout the first year of life, making it more susceptible to external irritants.
