Hormonal changes often bring oily skin, blackheads and spots. Some also have to deal with dry patches or sensitive skin. That makes it all the more important to develop a skincare routine early on that is tailored precisely to the needs of young skin.
With our versatile care products, you care for, soothe and support stressed skin during puberty. Don't let spots and other skin problems hold you back, and enjoy this exciting time of your life to the full!
Why is high-quality skincare so important during puberty?
Skin changes a lot during puberty. Increased hormone production makes the sebaceous glands more active, which leads to more oil production. As a result, pores clog more easily and blemishes appear, which make many young girls, but also boys, feel insecure and affect their self-confidence.
Many teenagers know the problem: the skin feels oily, shine on the forehead or nose is hard to avoid and blackheads appear more often. At the same time, dry patches can also occur. At juno&me it is our mission to support you during puberty with rich skincare and to give your skin the active ingredients it needs.
The right body care helps bring the skin into balance. That means:
- A gentle but effective cleanse to remove dirt and excess sebum.
- Moisturising care that doesn't put extra strain on the skin.
- Targeted treatments against blemishes that help prevent inflammation.
- Regular care to promote healthy skin in the long term.
The right care for blemished skin during puberty
A mild but effective cleanse is the be-all and end-all of skincare during puberty. Harsh products containing alcohol can irritate the skin unnecessarily and make it produce even more sebum. Instead, for skincare during puberty you should rely on rich creams, cleansing gels, scrubs and body oils. And to make your facial cleansing a success, we have a few tips for you:
- Use lukewarm water so as not to stress the skin unnecessarily.
- Gently massage in the cleansing product and rinse it off thoroughly.
- Dry your face with a clean towel to avoid bacteria.
- Avoid washing your face too often, as this can dry out the skin.
- After cleansing, use a mild toner to remove any remaining dirt and limescale from the water.
At juno&me we use high-quality and rich ingredients in our products. Alongside absolute classics such as aloe vera, our gels, creams and oils also contain zinc lactate to support wound healing, niacinamide to fight inflammation and also shea butter to keep your skin supple. On our website you will find wide-ranging information about our active ingredients, and of course we are also happy to help if you have any questions!
The first shave: how to do it without skin irritation
Puberty is often also when shaving becomes a topic for the first time. New or thicker body hair makes many young people want to get rid of it, for example because they find it unattractive or bothersome. Whether legs, underarms or the intimate area, the first shave should always be done with care to avoid skin irritation and razor bumps.
Our key points for a pleasant first shave without skin irritation:
- Use a high-quality razor that glides gently over the skin. Razors and intimate razors from our shop adapt flexibly to your skin and allow a pleasant shave.
- Use shaving gel or foam to prevent skin irritation. Your shaving accessories should moisturise your skin and not contain harsh ingredients that could irritate it further.
- Shave in the direction of hair growth to avoid ingrown hairs. These are particularly annoying for many people and should therefore be avoided.
- Care for your skin after shaving with a soothing, moisturising lotion. In our shop we offer you a range of sets that already include all the products for a pleasant shave.
- Change your razor blades regularly to avoid skin irritation. Blunt blades irritate your skin unnecessarily. Bacteria can also settle on them, which can have unpleasant consequences too.
Especially when you shave your intimate area for the first time, the right skincare during puberty plays a big role. With our oils and lotions you are on the safe side and can soon look forward to velvety soft skin.
Intimate care during puberty: what to pay attention to
Intimate care is an especially important topic during puberty. As the intimate area is very sensitive, it should only be cleansed with special, skin pH-neutral products. Fragrances or harsh ingredients disrupt the delicate balance of the intimate area and quickly cause irritation or unpleasant odours.
To make your intimate skincare during puberty optimal, you should keep these points in mind:
- Use pH-neutral washes without fragrance. Ingredients such as lactic acid and prebiotics are particularly beneficial here.
- Change your underwear daily and choose cotton instead of synthetic fabrics. Especially during your period, our period underwear is a good choice.
- Don't use harsh intimate sprays or soaps, as they can irritate sensitive skin. Instead, use products that gently cleanse the intimate area with valuable prebiotics, care for it and refresh it.
