Skin care in your 20s

A lot of things happen when you transition from your teens into your 20s. You move out of home, you become more independent, you have your first ‘serious’ boyfriend, and you start to notice your body shape changing again (and realise you can’t eat whatever you want anymore…sigh…) All pretty significant things that definitely don’t go unnoticed. What you might not notice however, is that as you make your way from adolescence to adulthood your skin care needs also change.

You see, when you’re a teenager with raging hormones, the sebum levels in your skin can go a little haywire, causing an overproduction of oil, as well as pimples, blackheads and acne. As a result, stronger, more astringent skin care products are needed to help regulate the skin.

When you hit your 20s your hormones have generally settled down and your skin has regulated itself. And while you may still get the occasional breakout and afternoon oil slick, it’s probably not as frequent as when you were a teenager, right? But the things is, we’re creatures of habit; so as much as we might love mixing and matching our make-up, when it comes to our cleansing routine a lot of us pretty much pick a particular range and stick with it. So chances are you’re using the same cleansing products you used as a teen – which will not only be a little too astringent for you now, but also won’t be addressing all of your adult skin needs (like the very important need for extra hydration!)

But if you’re not yet ready to make the switch to richer, anti-ageing-focused products what are you supposed to use? You’re kind of in a bit of skin care limbo, aren’t you? Which is exactly when you need to reach for the new Clearasil Daily Clear Vitamins & Extracts range. Formulated with a combination of active ingredients and nourishing extracts (such as vitamin E, avocado and pomegranate) it helps keep occasional breakouts at bay, while simultaneously hydrating and protecting your skin. Clearasil Daily Clear Vitamins & Extracts Wash is gentle enough to be used as an every day cleanser, or as a weekly mask; and thanks to its nourishing ingredients, it will leave you with a fresh, glowing complexion that never feels over dried. And if you’re feeling like you need an extra deep cleanse, Clearasil Daily Clear Vitamins & Extracts Scrub will work to deep cleanse your pores and remove dead skin cells and impurities, without stripping or irritating your skin.
