Now, we see children on TikTok, going to Sephora, getting products from 50-900 dollars. And when they get home they try these products, some they can’t pronounce but still got. When I see these videos, first I think “yeiks.” Then, I think “why?”

Perhaps, it’s insecurity. We’ve all been there. With how the world moves today, children have easy access to internet. Perhaps they come across an add manipulating them into thinking that they need these products to be better and beautiful.

Or they see their favourite influencer promoting a product and because they want to support said influencer they get their parent to get them these products. I’m not saying that every influencer is at fault for this, I just feel like some of these parents should be careful with what they let their kids see and do on the internet.

But, let say they know better and don’t buy everything they see on the internet. But, when they walk to school the next day, they see either their friend, or the other kids having “beautiful” skin and a bit of makeup, and they think to themselves “if they can have it, why can’t I?”

Or maybe, it’s the parents? Them making a TikTok of their child going around Sephora, for a “social experiment,” to see how much their kid can get under a certain time frame. They get the product and the parent get their five second of fame. Great right? NO!

They are 10! Some, even younger! Sephora isn’t a playground. And, not to mention, the mess they make for trying them!

Sure when we were younger, we saw our mom put on lipstick and we wanted to try it so we ask. Either we find out it’s weird or it was a great bonding experience. But these children shouldn’t even worry about pimples or have 50-900$ worth of makeup and skincare products to fit in.
