Kids Are Obsessed With Skincare – But Are They Cleansing Their Skin Properly?
From “Get Ready With Me” videos to skincare hauls on social media, there’s no denying that children and tweens are becoming more interested in skincare than ever before. While it’s great to encourage healthy skin habits, it’s also important to keep routines simple, gentle and age-appropriate.
One of the biggest mistakes we see? Cleansing isn’t always done properly.
If your child wears SPF, spends time outdoors, plays sport, dances or simply has a busy day, their skin collects sweat, oil, dirt and pollution. That’s why we recommend a simple two-step cleanse using Funny Skin Micellar Water followed by Funny Foam.
Think of it as the easiest way to give skin a fresh start.
Step One: Start with Micellar Water
Even if skin looks clean, it can still be holding onto:
- SPF (sun cream)
- Sweat
- Natural oils
- Dirt and dust
- Pollution
- Makeup (if it’s worn for performances or special occasions)
Funny Skin Micellar Water gently lifts these away before you wash your face, making cleansing much more effective.
What Are Micelles?
Micelles (pronounced my-sellz) are tiny cleansing molecules that act like little magnets.
They attract oil, dirt and makeup, lifting them away from the skin without harsh rubbing or scrubbing.
The result? Cleaner skin with less irritation.
Step Two: Cleanse with Funny Foam
Once the day’s build-up has been removed, it’s time for Funny Foam.
Funny Foam washes away any remaining impurities, leaving skin feeling fresh, clean and comfortable.
Because the micellar water has already tackled the SPF, dirt and excess oil, Funny Foam can properly cleanse the skin instead of trying to work through layers of build-up.
Together, they create the perfect cleansing duo.
Why Does the Order Matter?
Imagine trying to wash muddy trainers without knocking the mud off first.
Your sponge would quickly become dirty before it had a chance to clean anything properly.
Your skin works the same way.
Micellar Water removes the day’s build-up first.
Funny Foam follows with a gentle cleanse.
The result is cleaner skin without the need for harsh scrubbing.
Skincare Myths We Hear All the Time
Myth: “Micellar water damages your skin barrier.”
Not true.
Your skin barrier is your skin’s natural protective shield, helping to lock in moisture and keep irritation out.
A gentle micellar water is designed to cleanse while respecting that barrier. If skin feels comfortable after cleansing—not tight, sore or dry—that’s exactly what you want.
Myth: “Micellar water is enough on its own.”
Not quite.
Micellar water is fantastic for removing SPF, makeup and surface dirt, but a gentle cleanser like Funny Foam completes the cleanse by washing away anything that’s left behind.
They’re designed to work together.
Myth: “Double cleansing is only for adults.”
Definitely not.
Children and tweens who wear SPF every day, play sports, dance, spend time outside or simply lead active lives can all benefit from a gentle double cleanse at the end of the day.
It’s about removing what has built up on the skin—not using more products than necessary.
Myth: “Scrubbing harder means cleaner skin.”
Actually, the opposite is true.
Scrubbing can irritate delicate skin and leave it feeling sore.
Micellar water does the lifting, while Funny Foam gently cleanses, so there’s no need to scrub.
A Simple Routine That’s Perfect for Young Skin
Healthy skincare doesn’t need ten products.
Just follow these easy steps:
- Gently wipe the face with Funny Skin Micellar Water using a cotton pad or reusable cleansing pad.
- Wash with Funny Foam.
- Rinse with lukewarm water.
- Pat dry with a clean towel.
- Finish with moisturiser if needed and SPF in the morning.
Simple, effective and kind to young skin.
The Bottom Line
With children becoming more interested in skincare, it’s important to focus on the basics rather than complicated routines.
Healthy skin starts with cleansing properly.
Using Funny Skin Micellar Water first helps remove SPF, sweat, oil and dirt from the skin’s surface. Following with Funny Foam gives skin a gentle but thorough cleanse, leaving it feeling fresh, comfortable and ready for the day ahead—or a good night’s sleep.
Because great skincare isn’t about having the most products—it’s about using the right ones, in the right order.
