Skincare For Tweens: Starter Tips

Let's think of your daily skincare routine as a well-coordinated dance. First, your oil-based cleanser takes the lead, gracefully wiping away dirt and grime. Then, in comes the water-based cleanser to make sure nothing is left behind.

Deeply cleansing the skin is key for a great skin care routine. The Beauty of Joseon Low pH Rice Face and Body Cleansing Bar is our top cleanser pick because of its gentle formulation that makes it suitable for teens, tweens and even babies! 

Another great plus is, that it's not just for your face; it's a versatile solution for your entire body. This cleansing bar is also eco-friendly and hypoallergenic, making it perfect for sensitive skin.  

The next recommendation we have for tweens is the Purito Oat-in Silky Toner. This is a 2-in-1 skin care product, making it super easy to apply and depending on your skin type it will act as not only a toner but as a cream too! 

Thanks to the cutting-edge Ultra-fine Emulsion Technology, the Oat-in Silky Toner has a milky texture that loves to hug your skin. It locks in moisture, just like a cream, leaving your face feeling refreshed with a lovely dewy finish.

With a simple and clean formula containing only ten carefully chosen ingredients, including a generous 68.09% of oats, this toner is all about moisturizing and nourishing your skin without the fuss. 

It's the secret to that silky-smooth, non-irritating feeling you've been craving. And for environmentally-conscious teens, it comes in eco-friendly packaging that's easy on the planet, because skin care can be effective and kind to the skin. 

When it comes to skincare routines for tweens and teenagers, it's important to understand that different skin types have different needs. While some individuals with oily skin may find enough moisture from using a toner alone, those with dry or combination skin should consider incorporating a moisturizer into their daily regimen for the best results.

Moisturizers play a crucial role in skincare by providing essential hydration to the skin and helping to retain moisture. Beyond that, they offer additional benefits such as soothing the skin and bolstering its natural barrier. 

By applying a moisturizer, you not only replenish moisture lost throughout the day but also create a protective shield that seals in the benefits of previously applied toners, serums, or essences. This step is vital in ensuring that your skin remains radiant, healthy, and resilient.

Our pick on top tween and teen moisturizer is the Pyunkang Yul Kids & Baby Face Lotion. This lotions' consistency is not too thick or thin on the skin when applying, making them suitable for multiple skin types. This one has our vote, because of its clean ingredients, it is minimalistic and also it family safe label. 

The finishing touch to any skin care routine is sunscreen. Sunscreen is important for all age groups, to protect the skin from sun radiation.

Tween skin is still developing and can be more susceptible to sun damage. The skin is often more sensitive and delicate, which is why using sunscreen is important.

The Pyunkang yul Kids & Baby Sun Cream is our pick, because its gentle formulation makes it family safe while also providing high protection to the skin. This sunscreen also does not cause irritation and sinks quickly into the skin.

SPF isn't just for summer days; it's a year-round essential! Think of sunscreen as your skin's ever-cheerful best friend, ready to support and protect whenever you need it. Whether it's the heat of summer, the chill of winter, or the transitional seasons in between using SPF is key. 

Figuring out what works best for your skin can be hard. Some tips for finding suitable products are: 

1. Test it out first: Aim for minimalist ingredients in products, and always test out your products before applying them all over your face. 

2. Be gentle to your skin: That feeling when your face is extra tight, means your skin is drying out, NOT that it's extra clean. It's okay to baby your skin and go for gentle products instead of harsh ones. 

3. Avoid harsh facial scrubs: Washing your face with scrubs can damage your skin barrier. A damaged skin barrier increases the chances of infection, breakouts and dehydrated skin. 

Navigating the world of skin care can be tough, but with these recommendations and tips we hope your skin care journey can be a little easier. Remember to start with a basic routine and add new products slowly.

Don't forget: it's never too late or early to start showing your skin you care.
