Is it OK for kids and teens?
Kids (ages 3–11)
Not for kids
- Retinoid (vitamin A) (Retinyl Palmitate): An anti-aging and acne active children's skin doesn't need; dermatologists see red, itchy rashes in kids who use retinoids, and they make skin more sensitive to the sun.
Teens (ages 12–17)
Use with care
- Anti-aging retinoid (Retinyl Palmitate): Teen skin doesn't need anti-aging retinol, and it can irritate and make skin more sensitive to the sun. For pimples, adapalene (sold over the counter from age 12) is the retinoid dermatologists recommend.
