16 year old boy w/ acne skincare

[khasart1]

Hello Ladies (& Gentlemen),

I am hoping you guys can give me some suggestions for my 16 year old son. He has sensitive skin and is suffering from adolescent acne. He has been using Kiss cleanser but I am wondering which toner and moisturizer I should have him try. Any suggestions you have I would love to hear them!

I usually recommend KISS Cleanser, BHA Toner, Green Tea and Aloe Serum, and Hemp Moisturizer. With a kid, start small. Add the serum in later. So far my DD (12) only uses the cleanser and serum. I am hoping to add the others into her 'routine' at some point.

Hahah this is EXACTLY what I was going to say. I'm only 19 so I would like to think my acne is still "adolescent" and that is my exact routine. When I'm lazy in the morning I've just been using the BHA and GT&A serum since I am all out of my precious Hemp Moisturizer.

Well I'm twice that age and that routine does a pretty darned good job of taking care of hormonal acne, too. I can't get over how simple and effective it is after all those years of costs, trying remedies and angst. Give it a couple weeks and your skin will feel like new.

Pardon my butting in, but I'm curious if y'all recommend the Kiss Cleanser over Apricot Oil? I have a sample of the Apricot Oil and love it but I'm being stingy with it and only using it to remove eye makeup right now. They seem to last long enough that I don't think I should get both. (Haven't tried the Kiss Cleanser yet.)

Thanks for the suggestions. I guess I will have to submit another order (darn it anyways) I think I will have him try samples first, just in case.

It just depends......I think it is a better choice in the situation of someone with mild acne or slightly oily skin. I prefer the KISS myself and I have somewhat combo skin, although more dry right now. It is not that I have not tried oil based cleansers, I just luurrve a foaming one. The KISS replaced my old HG foaming cleanser from Lancome that was d/c.

I love the Kiss Cleanser to remove my eye makeup and everything it's incredibly gentle! Ordered another sample of ACO because I thought that was the culprit of a breakout but I changed loads of stuff at the time so now my skin's normalising I'm going to give it another go
