Q&A for How to Have a Good Skin Care Regime (Teen Girls)

The best products for you depend on your skin type. For example, do you have dry skin, or is it oily? Is your skin clear, or do you have acne? Look for products that are designed for the type of skin you have (for example, try a cleanser with benzoyl peroxide if you have acne, or a hydrating cleanser if you have dry skin). No matter what, stick to products that are gentle and don’t have a lot of harsh ingredients, like alcohol, perfumes, and dyes.

Keep your skin clean and prevent clogged pores by washing your face with a gentle facial cleanser twice a day. Moisturize your skin after you wash it so it doesn’t get irritated and dried out. You can also try over-the-counter acne creams, like benzoyl peroxide lotion. If you have pimples, resist the temptation to pop them, since that will just irritate your skin more! If your acne isn’t getting better or if it’s really bothering you, talk to your doctor. They can prescribe stronger medicines that will help.

Be really careful with serums—some of them have strong ingredients that can be too harsh on your young skin. Instead, stick to gentle cleansers and moisturizers. If you’re not sure whether something is safe to use, ask your doctor or a dermatologist.

No, it's not. Face masks should only be applied 1 or 2 times a week. If you use them twice a day, you are guaranteed very dry skin that is unhealthy.

No. The skin on your face is more sensitive, and hand sanitizer usually has a high alcohol content.

As long as you make sure the cloth is clean and sanitized prior to use, as otherwise they can carry bacteria that will make acne worse.

Yes, it is good to use baby soaps because they are gentle and have lower or no chemicals.They are not harsh on the skin and are smooth and soft to the skin. Soaps made for adults can be rougher and have fragrance and other cosmetic chemicals added that your skin doesn't need and sometimes might react to.

I would go with Neutrogena Moisturizer. That has always been my best bet. You can also do a knock off brand like Equate Beauty or Up And Up.

I suggest using Simple or Nivea. Clean and Clear or any sort of specialist brand is not a good idea. If you have any allergies, be sure to read the labels carefully.

If you're asking if you can do it either in the morning or at night, yes, it doesn't matter when you do it. If you're asking if you need to do it twice a day, no, not the entire routine, though it does help to wash your face and apply moisturizer twice a day.

Yes, you can use face cream in morning. Using the face cream in the morning will work all day long. How your face will feel all day long depends on which type of cream you use.

Yes. That will dry out your skin, making any facial problems worse.

Yes, Bio Oil can be used for more than just pregnancy stretch marks. It helps reduce many scars in general.

I recommend Neutrogena oil-free moisturizer for sensitive skin. It's great for all ages.

You probably have really nice skin! However, I would keep washing it so you don't get any new pimples. Also, be sure not to wear too much makeup, otherwise it could clog your pores and give you pimples/blackheads.

Yes, pawpaw works just fine. It basically works the same as lip balm. It may even have more benefits, depending of the type of lip balm.

Yes, these products are suitable. Just make sure you don't use them too much. Don't use the scrub more than twice a week, and don't use the mask more than three times a week. Don't forget to moisturize your skin after. As a spot treatment, I recommend Tea Tree Oil.

It depends on how many blackheads you tend to get. If you get a lot, use pore strips every two weeks or so. If your skin is mostly clear, once a month is fine.

Apply cucumber slices to your eyes for 15-20 minutes and get more sleep. You can also apply a little concealer to cover them up.

They are medicated adhesive strips designed to remove surface irritants clogging pores. However, the adhesive used in them can irritate the skin, and using them on a damaged pore can result in scarring.

You can use a baking soda scrub to help remove blackheads from your skin if you do not wish to use pore cleansing strips.

Fortnightly but only if needed. And definitely still read the care instructions on the package to be sure that the product recommends such a time too.

Yes, you don't need a lot of fancy skin care products to have a good skin care regime. If you find out what works for you, stick with it. If you have a certain problem with your skin, you can directly search for brands a bit more pricey or with high ratings to attack the problem.

For soft and moist skin, a moisturizer with humectants and emollients is ideal. Look for products containing hyaluronic acid, glycerin, or ceramides, which help draw moisture to the skin and create a protective barrier. Some popular choices include CeraVe Moisturizing Cream, Dot & Key Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizer, or Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream.

I have oily skin, too, and recommend Dr. Bronner's pure Castile soap. They have many different types, but definitely recommend either the peppermint or tea tree oil one. It has many useful oils for your skin, and doesn't strip your skin of its natural oils.

Try to get the cleansers with the most natural ingredients. Avoid anything with chemicals such as sulfate, methanols, etc. And when it comes to cream, same conditions. Avoid harsh chemicals, try to use natural ingredients that suit your skin.

You should use either cleanser or face wash, as they are pretty much the same thing.

Yes. It's great to begin a full skincare routine of face wash, toner, and moisturizer when you're a teenager. This will keep your skin healthy and you'll be less likely to develop acne.

You could try the products by Feeling Beautiful or Cetaphil.

Brush your teeth after breakfast, it gives you fresher breath for the day.
