Is your teen's bathroom starting to look like a mini Sephora, but their skin is still on the roller coaster ride of puberty? Likely - given current trends, this may be more so the bathroom shelf of your tween of teen daughter - but if your boys are anything like mine - you’ll be lucky to find his toothbrush, toothpaste and of course his deodorant (shout out to the Neon Goat Shvitz Stick and Shvitz Spritz).

Let's chat about simplifying or for some - even starting him on a skincare routine because, let's face it, less is more when it comes to teen skin! And our boys might not want a 6 step skincare routine (nor should they) but they certainly do care.

1. Cleanse like a pro:  

First things first, washing your face is like the pre-game warm-up. Teens, grab a gentle cleanser and make it your BFF. It's the MVP of your routine, keeping those pores clear without going overboard. And for those with sensitive skin: Keep it simple with fragrance-free, gentle products.

2.  Moisturise, Moisturise, Moisturise:

Next up, hydration station! Even if your skin is oilier than a slice of pizza, it still needs some love. Find a lightweight moisturiser that's like a tall drink of water for your skin – refreshing and non-greasy.

3. SPF is your BFF:

Lastly, don't forget the sunscreen! It's like the cool shades for your skin, protecting it from those harsh UV rays. Whether it's sunny or cloudy, SPF is a must to keep your skin game strong. Think of it just like brushing your teeth — just something that’s part of a teen’s daily morning routine.

A couple Pro-Tips: 

First: don't go wild with new products all at once. Introduce them slowly, so if your skin throws a tantrum, you'll know who the culprit is.

Second: if your skin's sending out SOS signals, it could be time to call upon the pros. A dermatologist can often be your skin's superhero.

And to all our sporty, sweat-loving teens out there — yes, we're talking to you, the soccer stars, basketball champs, and skateboarding legends— it's crucial to give your skin a good cleanse after an intense match or practice. Sweat might be your badge of honour, but leaving it on your skin for too long is like rolling out the red carpet for breakouts. So, don't just focus on your face; your chest and back need some love, too!

4. Stay Fresh with Natural Deodorant:

Now, let's not forget the final touch to keep you smelling fresh throughout the day. Start your morning by applying our Neon Goat Shvitz Stick for long-lasting, natural odour protection.  

And for those moments when you need a quick refresh, give yourself a spritz with our Neon Goat Shvitz Spritz. It's the perfect pick-me-up to keep you feeling cool and confident, whether you're acing a test or scoring the winning goal.

But hold up, it's not just about washing your skin. Your helmets, hats, and sports gear are like the secret hideouts for bacteria, plotting their next attack on your skin. Keep them clean to keep your skin clear. And let's not forget about the other sneaky culprits like mobile phones, masks, glasses, and pillowcases. Give them a regular wash to keep those pores free and clear. 

So, there you have it, teens! Follow these simple steps, and you'll be on your way to maintaining that fresh, confident vibe, no matter how much you sweat it out on the field or the court. A simple skincare routine that's as easy as 1-2-3-4. Keep it simple, keep it real, and let your natural awesomeness shine through!
