The best skincare tips and products for your teen

What does good skincare mean?

Cleansing, toning and moisturizing skin every day is the best way to keep your skin clean and glowing. Do not forget to clean your skin in the mornings as well to get rid of dust particles. Use plain water or mild soap! Problem skin needs to be cleansed and exfoliated (do not over-do this part!) in order to remove excess oil and dead skin cells. And even oily skin needs hydration to renew itself and therefore a daily moisturiser is essential.

More tips to keep your skin healthy and fresh:

Drink Plenty Of Water:
Water helps to keep a healthy, flawless skin. It also helps to flush out harmful toxins from your teen’s body and to keep the skin hydrated.

Eat a Balanced Diet:
A healthy and nutritious diet is important to maintain healthy-looking skin. And it is actually the best teenage skin care tip. Sodas, junk foods, sugar and caffeinated drinks easily trigger acne and blemishes. And your skin will look dull and dry.

Use simple and minimal make up:
Be careful with the use of artificial make up! Chemicals can ruin your still sensitive skin and to look beautiful your skin should be healthy and rash-free. Try to use organic brands that are gentle to your skin.

Read the ingredients list:
As mentioned above, chemicals are not good for your skin. Try to avoid them as much as you can! With up to 60% of what you put on your skin absorbed into your bloodstream, it is never too early to start an organic skin care regime.

Every person is different and finding the right product for your skin may take some trial and error effort. We have picked a few of the best products for teens to get you started on that journey. We made sure to include budget-friendly as well as natural products in our list:
