Skin care routine in teenagers

It is best to keep your skin care routine simple in your teens. This is the decade where you start experimenting with make up and that can lead to acne eruptions, allergies etc. Try to stick to a simple skin care routine and remember to use a sunscreen daily.


Oily / combination skin:
Moisturiser : Use a light gel based moisturiser every time you wash your face. Wash your face only twice a day. Try to keep use of concealers and foundations to a minimum. Make sure you remove make up properly with an oily free make up remover at night.
Face wash : Use a salicylic acid based face wash of your skin is oily. If you have acne then you can use a face wash which contains benzoyl peroxide. Apply the face wash, lather it, leave it on for 2-3mins and then wash it off.
Sunscreen: Use a gel based sunscreen with SPF 30 on a regular basis.
Diet :. Try to keep your sugar and milk intake to the minimum if you get acne frequently.
Acne control : you can use benzoyl peroxide gel or salicylic acid as spot treatment. Do not pick on your skin or try to pop your acne as it will leave behind a scar or a dark spot. If you have moderate to severe acne, it is best to visit a dermatologist and get it treated.

Dry skin
Moisturiser: This is the most important component of your skin care. Use a moisturiser which contains liquid paraffin or shea butter or cocoa butter, this will help in hydrating the skin for a long time. Always apply a thick moisturiser before going to bed. Try to not keep the air conditioner temperature too low and do not sleep directly under a fan. This will dry your skin out even more. Oil such as almond oil or coconut oil can be used to remove make up.
Face wash : Use a light non- foaming face wash meant for dry sensitive skin. Stay away from scrubs and foaming face washes. Avoid using hot water.
Sunscreen : Use a cream or lotion formulation of sunscreen over your moisturiser.
Diet : try to take food rich in omega 3 & 6 fatty acids such as nuts, seeds ( flax seeds, chia seeds), fish and sea food.

Normal skin
Moisturiser : Use a light water based moisturiser twice a day. Always use a moisturiser every time you wash your face. Remove make up properly before going to bed in order to avoid acne.
Face wash: You can use a non-foaming face wash twice a day.
Sunscreen : use a gel formulation of sunscreen with SPF 30. Reapply it every 2 hours.
Diet : try to take food rich in omega 3 & 6 fatty acids such as nuts, seeds ( flax seeds, chia seeds), fish and sea food.
