Young skin is active, resilient and quick to regenerate. Hormonal changes can lead to increased sebum production, shine and blemishes. Gentle cleansing, balancing hydration and light care keep it in balance. Rose water soothes and refines the complexion, argan oil locks in moisture and supports healing. That keeps the skin clear, fresh and naturally radiant.

What causes blemishes: During puberty above all, the body changes through hormonal shifts, which leads to increased sebum production and therefore more oil on the skin. Stronger keratinisation combined with increased (excess) sebum can block the pores, which leads to blackheads and blemishes. Inflamed spots develop when blackheads become infected with bacteria.

Care tips for young skin:

1. Use a gentle but thorough cleanser (without foaming surfactants) that does not dry the skin out but brings sebum production back into balance. Avoid products with alcohol in 2nd or 3rd place on the INCI list.
2. Avoid irritating fragrances. Tea tree oil too, although often recommended for young skin, carries a high allergy potential and can irritate inflamed skin further. If you notice intolerances, it is better to go for fragrance-free, pure products.
3. Young skin does not need hyaluronic acid or powerful actives such as retinol or vitamin C.
4. Over-cleansing, mechanical scrubs and brushes can stimulate sebum production even more.
5. Avoid squeezing spots.
6. Change your towel, flannel and pillowcase regularly.
7. A facial steam bath with chamomile opens and cleanses the pores and helps prevent blemishes.
8. Fast food, excessive sugar and processed foods can make skin problems worse.
