As we grow into teenagers, our skin undergoes various changes because of hormones. For many teens, their skin becomes oilier because the glands make more sebum, which can cause pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads. This happens because hormones like androgens increase during this time. Some teens might have acne breakouts, while others may face dry or sensitive skin. The skin might also get redder and more inflamed. Even though these changes can be annoying, it's crucial to stick to a regular skincare routine, like washing and moisturizing, and avoid picking or squeezing pimples to keep the skin healthy and balanced. As time goes on and hormones settle, many of these skin issues often get better with proper care. To achieve clear and bright skin during the teenage years, simple self-care measures can help.
Here are some recommendations to help you maintain healthy and radiant skin:
-
Cleansing: Cleanse your face twice daily, in the morning and before bedtime, with a gentle and suitable face wash for your skin type. This helps to remove dirt, excess oil, and impurities that can clog pores and lead to breakouts.

Hydration & Balanced Diet: Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated and flush out toxins. Well-hydrated skin looks plump and healthy. You can add green tea, detox water, or lemon water to your diet. Maintain a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins. Avoid excessive consumption of sugary and greasy foods as they may contribute to acne and dull skin.
