π₯ Teenage Acne: How to Get Rid of It
A Citygrl Professional Guide to Clear Skin & Confidence
Teenage acne can be tough, but getting clearer skin doesn't have to be complicated. Whether you're a teen looking for help or a parent wanting to support your child, this guide gives you REAL answers, backed by clean beauty and healthy habits.
π©ββοΈ Why Does Acne Happen?
Teen acne is usually a mix of hormones and oil production kicking into high gear. When too much oil (sebum) builds up, it mixes with dead skin cells and clogs pores β thatβs when pesky pimples, blackheads, or cysts show up.
Factors like stress, makeup, not washing after sports, and even haircare products can make breakouts worse. So where do you start?
β¨ Step One: How to Get Rid of It
Build a Simple, Consistent Routine
The BEST way to fight acne is through consistency. Not constant scrubbing, picking, or changing products every week β but a steady routine that supports the skin every single day.
πΏ Morning Routine:
Gentle Cleanser
Removes overnight buildup without stripping oils your skin needs.
Light Moisturizer
Yes, even oily or acne-prone skin needs hydration. Lack of moisture can actually trigger MORE oil.
Sunscreen
Protects your skin from scarring and hyperpigmentation. Itβs essential for healing after a breakout.
π Evening Routine:
Micellar Water
The first step to removing makeup, sweat, oil, and dirt.
(Here at Citygrl Professional, our Micellar Water formula is gentle enough for sensitive skin but tough enough on impurities.)
Cleanser
Helps reset skin after a long day of activity or exposure.
Spot Treatment
Look for salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, or tea tree oil. Keep treatments to affected areas, especially for teens with dry or combination skin.
Oil-Free Moisturizer
Helps repair skin overnight, preventing dryness and irritation from acne treatments.
