YOUNG SKIN

WHAT IS YOUNG SKIN?

We define young skin as the skin of people between the ages of around 12 and 18. Young skin is characterized in particular by its even, resistant complexion and rapid ability to regenerate. Basically, all four skin types can occur in young skin. And all skin types actually have something to do with puberty and hormonal changes in the body. Despite balanced sebum production and an ideal moisture balance, your skin can be prone to an oily sheen and acne during puberty. Your skin now needs mild products that still Cleanse thoroughly. 

HOW DO YOU LOOK AFTER YOUR YOUNG SKIN?

HOW DO PIMPLES DEVELOP?

We've all been there: you have something planned and a huge pimple appears on your face just in time. That's great! But how does a pimple actually form? Excessive sebum production means that the sebum can no longer drain away properly and a blackhead appears. This mixture of dead skin cells and sebum clogs the pore and is a breeding ground for bacteria, which leads to inflammation. The area around the blocked pore swells, reddens and voilà, the pimple is there!
