Look for gentle and hydrating products. Their barrier is very sensitive at this age and can be easily irritated with products that contain acids, scrubs, or retinols. Tweens should only use these type of products under supervision of an esthetician or doctor. Avoid the pull of fun TikTok skincare trends as they are more harmful (and expensive) than good. If they are starting to see some pimples and blackheads, especially around the hairline and chin from sports, schedule the Pre-Teen facial with Michaela where she can assess and discuss acne products that would be suited for their skin.

At this age, pimples and blackheads are bound to happen with the hormonal shifts. Skin becomes oilier, pores get easily clogged, and inflammation rises from the hormones - creating the perfect environment for acne. This is when it's important they are consistent with their daily AM and PM routine. They may need to add in an exfoliating acid serum or benzoyl peroxide cream to combat pimples in which you should contact an esthetician or doctor for suggestions. Michaela's Teen Facial is a great service to do just that.
