Tween & Teen Skincare Products We'll Repurchase
Figuring out a skincare routine for teens and tweens can be overwhelming! With so many products on the market, it's tough to know how to choose the best safe, effective and gentle skincare for young skin. That's why we've created this crowdsourced list – a space where parents can share the best teen and tween skincare products they've found with one another.
We're collecting real-life recommendations for face wash, moisturizer, sunscreens, acne treatment, and any other skincare for tweens and teens that parents have found successful. Whether you need skincare for teen boys who couldn't care less or tween girls set on Sephora products, we hope you'll use this list to find new favorites and share what's working for your kids these days.
If you see a product listed that your teen or tween has used and loved (or maybe didn't love!), please take a moment to leave a rating and review. Your insights will be incredibly helpful to other parents. And if you have a go-to skincare product that isn't already on the list, we invite you to submit your recommendation.

TBH Spot Foaming Face Wash
TBH Spot Foaming Face Wash is a gentle yet effective facial cleanser for teens and tweens to help tackle blemishes and clear pores without over-drying their skin. Formulated with a low concentration of salicylic acid derived from willow bark, along with jojoba, it helps to exfoliate, remove impurities, and control oil production, making it a good choice for young skin prone to breakouts.
Kelly R said: Â This daily kids face wash is great for preventing or treating the occasional blemish that pops up. I like that it uses natural ingredients, and is gentle enough for kids who aren't really ready for more aggressive acne treatments. We've tried the wipes version of this product, too, but found that it was a little too harsh for us.

Mighty Patch
Mighty Patch is a genius acne treatment for teens and tweens that magically removes the gunk from pimples overnight.
Kelly R said: Â I love these as a practical stocking stuffer! My teen boy and tween girl both use them regularly, and the adults sneak one occasionally too.

Aquaphor Lip Repair
