A skincare range specifically designed for teenagers by aromatherapy skin and body care specialist Eve Taylor OBE.
What's the PR Blurb?
Teen-skinactives was specifically created and formulated as a unique product range. It is designed to work with younger teenage skins that often need to have that extra special attention to help improve the skin's overall condition. It can be used to treat those everyday teen skin issues, such as acne/breakouts/oily skin - as well as dry/dehydrated skin.
Teen-skinactives products have been formulated and tested for younger skin types - so that they are non-drying, non-irritating and don't contain any alcohols, mineral oils, lanolins, peroxides or artificial colours and fragrances, as these often dry and irritate the skin.
The range consists of the following products:
- Clearing Skin Wash
- Clearing Skin Scrub
- Clearing Skin Lotion
- Clearing Spot Gel
- Anti-Shine Skin Balm
- Restoring Skin Masque
- Daytime Skin Defence with 15SPF
- Overnight Skin Support
My two sons (pre-teen and teen) are at a stage in life where image is important. They want the right haircuts to fit in with their friends and also want to have good skin so they can blend in with the crowd. As they enter their teens, their skin is gradually becoming greasier and more prone to spots. However, it is often very difficult to motivate them to look after their skin effectively and, in particular, regularly.
Most skincare products for oily/spot-prone skin are aimed at women. Those aimed at men are often quite harsh on the skin, while products formulated for teenagers tend to have quite feminine packaging. Teen-skinactives, however, has unisex branding and my two sons were very happy to try out several of the products (the Skin Wash, Spot Gel and Anti-shine Skin Balm). Each product is colour-coded for easy recognition. My sons liked the fact that these products were specifically for them, rather than for the whole family.
The products were straight-forward to use, didn't cause any stinging or irritation and didn't leave my sons' skin dry. Any existing spots cleared up within a couple of days and their skin was much clearer when they used the Skin Wash and Skin Balm regularly.
This is a lovely teenage skincare range, ideal for both boys and girls, and uses natural ingredients. It is well priced too.
