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.
- 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.
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.
Helps with acne: Salicylic Acid.
