5 reasons Teens/Tweens need their own skincare:

👧Tween and teen skin isn’t baby skin. It’s not adult skin, either. It’s a delicate hybrid with its own unique needs. And the usual skin ‘types’ don’t apply.

🧪Until the age of 12, children secrete less sebum than adults, which makes their skin six times more susceptible to synthetic chemical penetration from haircare, skincare and bathing products.

☠️Chemicals in traditional skincare and personal care can act as hormone disruptors, impacting development in girls entering puberty.

🙈Adult products, even those for sensitive skin, often contain ingredients that can irritate or overload tween and teen skin.

👶🏻Super-gentle baby and child products aren’t formulated to deal with tween/teen hair (a bit greasy), and skin (a bit sweaty/spotty). And, besides, what 12-14-year-old wants to be seen using a baby/child product?

Ever felt like your tween/teen lives in a different time zone? They don’t go to sleep until midnight. They can’t get out of bed in the morning and they can pretty much sleep all day at the weekend.

And they can’t help it! It’s all part of the natural, puberty shift in their bodies and brain. Trouble is, when you combine that with early wake ups and busy school life, the result is often a very sleep-deprived and grumpy child.

Our Mood Sprays are specially formulated for teens/tweens and their complicated brains. They’re alcohol-free and gentle, because young skin is delicate. But they are also full of powerful ingredients that will help to calm anxious minds, relax over-tired bodies and add some brightness to bad days. Just mist over your face and breathe in deeply and slowly.

'My 11yr old boy started to get little outbreaks of hormonal acne. I wanted a gentle cleansing wash, rather than his usual soap and water and discovered this online. It's packaging looks “boyish” and the ingredients sounded just what I’d been looking for. Within 2 weeks, there was a big difference with his acne. Not only does it really help clear up acne, it teaches a good skin care routine and it doesn’t dry out young skin. It smells delicious too! Highly recommend to any parent looking for a gentle but effective wash.' Kerry

Why is getting great reviews for our boy products extra special? Because boys are tough customers. They often don't want to wash full stop, let alone get around to using a real 'skincare' product. Despite this, our collection of skin, hair and bodycare has done a great job converting LOTS of reluctant boys to the joys of being clean and smelling great. Read our thousands of 5⭐️reviews to hear what they have to say.
