Teen Skin Care

 The adolescence phase is a box of surprises. It is a time in life when the body goes through transformations, and the skin is one of the first parts of our body to feel this change. From that moment on, concerns about appearance begin with the need for a skincare routine 

It is also necessary to emphasize that using products under the influence of friends or following “homemade recipes” can be a danger to the skin. It is important to follow the recommendation of a beautician who will prepare a specific treatment for your teenager's skin type.

In general, teenagers' skin is mixed with a tendency to be oily. The first step in the skincare routine, and the most important, is facial cleansing - which is worth a lifetime lesson. Sanitizing your skin every day, with the right products, is essential to keep it healthy and ensure your skincare routine is more effective.

Clean skin allows greater penetration of cosmetic actives, making the treatment have satisfactory results. 

When looking for facial cosmetics, look for non-comedogenic ingredients is important as they prevent clogged pores. A product is considered comedogenic when it can clog pores, further facilitating the appearance of blackheads and pimples. That means, no petrolatum and heavy vegetable oils, such as coconut oil. They are very comedogenic. Alcohol-based products, like many toners, remove excess oil from your skin but can cause a rebound effect, causing inflammation and even causing more pimples. A skin specialist will have the right product for your skin.

It is extremely important not to pop your pimples and blackheads, as much as you love to be in front of the mirror treating your face as a battleground. When you squeeze a blackhead you are pushing sebum and bacteria to the bottom of the pore causing inflammation and even a pimple. Which can also develop into a scar. Ideally, the extraction should be done by a professional through skin cleansing, to reduce the risk of inflammation instead of increasing the problem.
