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.

You're starting from a false premise that preteen children do not need to take care of their skin.

If you mean regularly cleaning their skin and adhering to the 5Ss when spending time in direct sun then sure, if you mean applying moisturising facial masks and getting dermal peels then no that's dumb, kids don't need that

Adults don't need products like this to take care of their skin.
