Acne for teens

[kaitlynmaltez]

Does anyone recommend a good handful of skincare products that are good for acne, breakouts, and redness for a teen??

I completely cleared my acne with Drunk Elephant. However, it is pretty expensive. You can get the trial duos for $25-$27 and should last you a month. I used the glycolic acid in the morning with sunscreen and the retinol paired with the B-hydra at night with the protini moisturizer. I can’t stress how important the B-hysdra is . You absolutely HAVE to use it if you use retinol or even the glycolic acid. It keeps your skin from becoming irritated. Face was clear in 2 weeks.

I do suggest Dr Dennis Gross cleanser over the Drunk Elephant though. The Drunk Elephant cleanser was irritating to my eyes. But I’m now acne free!

@kaitlynmaltez a gentle cleanser like First Aid Beauty Pure Skin Face Cleanser .  Paula's Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant a benzoyl peroxide spot treatment like Clean & Clear persa-gel.

If you're still having difficulty,  you can consider Differin OTC.  I think the Rx is superior,  tho.  If that doesn't work, you can ask your MD if you are a candidate fir Retin-A.

Are you having difficulty with oiliness?

I can't speak to if the above products are clean.

I had a dermatologist prescribe Retin A for my teen and I think it contains very harsh chemicals in it to give to teenagers. I would not give a Teen Retin A unless it is the absolute last option. That’s just my opinion since I had to use it at 21 for acne
