Face the Facts

Even though they may drive you bananas!

FACT: The preteen and teen years are a time when hormones are WREAKING HAVOC and can cause various changes in the skin. This can begin as early as 10 or 11 years old! It can sometimes lead to a combination skin where the face is oily and dry at the same time and you may also start getting a pimple here and there.

FACT: Makeup...it's not all created equal. How do I know what's best for me? There's an overwhelming amount of cosmetic lines on the market today and trying to figure out the best line for you can be a confusing process. If you want to avoid breakouts and congested skin, it's REALLY important to know what makeup to look for and more importantly, what makeup to avoid. To learn more about the best makeup options for you listen to this QUICK 2 minute podcast.

FACT: Your skin is the largest organ of the body and it’s never too soon to start taking care of it!

I recommend starting with just 3 basic products. These three products were designed specifically for YOUR skin type and will get you headed in the right direction. https://www.aylinskincare.com/teentime

HORMONAL CHANGES DURING PUBERTY AND TEEN YEARS CAN CAUSE AN INCREASE IN SEBUM GLANDS AND IN OIL PRODUCTION, ESPECIALLY IN THE T-ZONE.  TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE, TEENS TYPICALLY USE HARSH, DRYING OTC PRODUCTS THAT STRIP THE OIL AND END UP DEHYDRATING AND SENSITIZING THE SKIN.  THIS CAN LEAD TO PATCHES OF DRY FLAKY AREAS AND AN EVEN GREATER INCREASE IN THE OIL PRODUCTION.  THE SKIN ACTUALLY BECOMES DEHYDRATED (A MOISTURE DRY CONDITION). IT BECOMES A VICIOUS CYCLE.

SOLUTIONS:

PRODUCTS - CLEANSE TWICE A DAY. FOR A MILD OILY SKIN TYPE USE A GENTLE GEL BASED CLEANSER LIKE UGC.  IF YOUR'E SUPER OILY I RECOMMEND A GEL CLEANSER THAT CONTAINS OIL ABSORBING MANDELIC ACID LIKE A MANDELIC WASH.  A SALICYLIC BASED TONER CAN ALSO HELP WITH REDUCING OIL.  KEEP SKIN HYDRATED WITH A LIGHT HYDRATING GEL.  DON'T FORGET THE SPF!! ALL PRODUCTS CAN BE FOUND ON MY ONLINE STORE AT AYLINSKINCARE.COM.  CONTACT CARA FOR A FREE TEEN PRODUCT CONSULTATION.  

SUPPLEMENTS - OMEGA 3 FISH OILS ARE GREAT FOR BALANCING OIL PRODUCTION IN THE SKIN.  NOT ALL BRANDS ARE ALIKE.  CONTACT CARA FOR RECOMMENDATIONS OF HIGH QUALITY BRANDS.  

NUTRITION - TRY TO CUT BACK ON DAIRY PRODUCTS.  THE HORMONES AND IODIDES CONTAINED IN DAIRY PRODUCTS CAN KICK UP THE OIL PRODUCTION.  TRY TO EAT PLENTY OF FRUIT AND VEGGIES!

What if you could have the great skin your favorite celebrities have.  

It is no accident that @Jlo looks 20 at 50, @beyonce is AGELESS and @kristenanniebell looks younger than you.  

They all have one thing in common: they started proper skincare routines early. Great skin rarely happens by accident, great skin starts when you're young.

Keep what you have; you're a teenager, you have beautiful skin.

Start now, you avoid damage.

Start a real routine to keep your fresh teenage skin just like that for a long time.
