Help a teen out!

I’m 15 and my oily skin is the worst! I have so much scars and acne! Any good cleansers and exfoliators to get rid of this nonsense?

Re: Help a teen out!

Since you're young I will recommend things for your young skin but are highly effective . 

Cleansers

1. Murad Time Release or Clarifying Cleanser : The  both adress acne . The Clarifying one is for people who have oily skin but can take harshness. The TR one is more gentle and good for people who want that anti aging effect . Both contain salylic acid .

2. First Aid Beauty pure skin cleanser - gentle , cleans,  but doesn't strip . Cons: doesn't deep clean .

3. Origins Zero deep pore cleanser 

4. Boscia detoxify cleanser or purifying cleanser 

5. Origins checks and balances 

For exfoliation: I say use a chemical exfoliant. Like one in a pad for that has ahas or bhas.

You'll want to start simply - try a gentle moisturizer like First Aid Beauty's facial cleanser or Philosophy's Purity. Then add a targeted treatment for the acne, something with salicylic acid like The Ordinary's 2% Solution. And finish up with a good moisturizer like Belif's Aqua Bomb.
