A new skincare line for children by actress-turned-entrepreneur Shay Mitchell creates an online uproar, with many questioning the need for the products.

Whoever supports this product thinks that kids need to be sexy
Or that adults who might regret not having started taking care of their skin earlier.
If this was revealing piece of clothing I could get the sexy angle, but this is skincare.
This is marketed for toddlers to prepubescent children, they don’t need skin masks.
Marketing it to kids going through puberty would be a lot less weird because that’s when you DO need to start taking care of your skin.

Because they don’t.
