Is it OK for kids and teens?
Kids (ages 3–11)
Use with care
- Acne treatment (Salicylic Acid): Benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, and adapalene treat acne well, but for children under 12 it's best to check with a doctor first, and to start gently.
- Exfoliating acid (AHA) (Lactic Acid, Glycolic Acid): Glycolic, lactic, and mandelic acids can irritate young skin, and children rarely need them. We can't see the strength, so low amounts are flagged too.
Teens (ages 12–17)
Use with care
- Exfoliating acid (AHA) (Lactic Acid, Glycolic Acid): Glycolic, lactic, and mandelic acids can irritate, especially alongside acne treatments. Fine for some teens, used a few times a week.
Helps with acne: Salicylic Acid.
