The power of writing and storytelling is often overlooked. Teenage author Colton Fidelman is available to speak about sharing ideas/experiences through writing and how it sharpens leadership skills.

Triple Paste: The Trusted Choice from Cheek to Cheek
Move over slugging, it’s all about face basting. A New York City dermatologist has touted “face basting” to be the next level of slugging, coining the technique to mean applying a diaper cream to the face at night, after cleansing and when skin is feeling dry. The dermatologist advocates Triple Paste as the diaper cream of choice, joining pediatricians who recommend the brand for soothing baby diaper rash.
“Butt, what about your face?” Social media videos on TikTok show using a zinc oxide-based diaper rash cream all over your face at night can help awaken to skin as soft and smooth as a baby’s butt. Other videos show how Triple Paste worked best on kids for diaper blowouts due to its soothing oat kernel extracts and cornstarch, as well as being free from fragrance and talc.
“We’ve always known that caregivers trust the Triple Paste brand to treat diaper rash but were delightfully surprised to see the innovative usage of “face basting” because it offers a fantastic two-fer solution.” says Janice Li, Head of Marketing for Triple Paste. “As a mom myself, I love multi-purpose products. What’s good for baby is also good for mom!”
The face basting social media videos show the versatility and benefits of using diaper cream as a facial skincare product due to the tendency of diaper creams to have skin protectants and emollients. Face basting with diaper cream is a must-try for parents and skincare enthusiasts seeking a unique, dual-purpose approach to achieve radiant and healthy-looking skin for themselves and their babies.
