Features of teenage skin
In the transitional age, the adolescent's body undergoes certain changes associated with hormonal changes. Changes affect the child's skin, hair, nails. During this period, there is increased work of the sebaceous glands, which makes the skin unnecessarily oily and porous... An excessive amount of fatty secretions clogs the pores, deprives the skin of the ability to breathe fully, as a result pimples appear on the face, and acne appears.
The secreted fat contributes to the formation of a favorable environment for the reproduction of bacteria, purulent formations.

It should be noted that hormonal changes in the body will continue for a long time. This means that the skin can change its type and requirements for daily care. There is no need to buy cosmetics for future use.
Varieties of cosmetics
Care cosmetics should be selected strictly for a specific skin type, taking into account the problem that has arisen. In the presence of a large number of acne, pustular pimples, acne, blackheads the product should have a stronger disinfectant and drying effect... During adolescence, the skin is most often combination or oily. Normal or dry skin occurs in only a third of adolescents.

For teenage girls it is better to choose cream of a famous brand, time-tested. Many cosmetic companies produce a variety of teen beauty products to address all of the above concerns. If the skin of a teenager is oily, covered with pustules or acne, then when choosing a cream, you need to take into account its constituent components... An acne cream should contain 2% salicylic acid in its composition to dry the skin and remove oily sheen, a vitamin complex to nourish the skin.
The texture should be light and delicate so as not to clog pores. In this case, matting wipes will help well, which completely remove oily sheen and disinfect the skin. Normal skin does not require drying, but it needs vitamin nutrition and hydration.
