Natural Skincare for Teenage Skin
For many teens, skincare is a new world full of routines and options–a world which can quickly feel overwhelming. Choosing natural skincare for teenage skin makes these early routines simpler, relying on plant-based remedies to nurture the skin and lay the groundwork for lifelong healthy skin care practices.
How Important is Natural Skin Care for Teens?
In every phase of life, including the teen years, turning to botanical remedies will bring about beautiful results for the skin. Our formulations offer a multitude of nutrients to help balance, heal, and nourish the skin at any age.
An early introduction to natural skincare products for teen complexions helps address immediate concerns and, importantly, awakens an understanding of how plant remedies can work synergistically with the skin. The stage is set for healthy skin habits that last a lifetime.
Benefits of Natural Skincare for Teenage Skin
For teenage skin, grappling with excessive oil production —a precursor to clogged pores, acne and breakouts—natural ingredients offer a gentle yet effective solution. Ingredients like Tea Tree, relied on for its antibacterial properties, or Lavender for soothing nature, work to solve these concerns without the harsh chemicals or artificial fragrances found in many teen skincare products that typically overwork the complexion.
And there's another bonus in turning to eco-friendly, plant remedies—aromatherapy benefits. The aromas inherent in many natural skincare products and botanical elixirs contribute to overall well-being and can help bring balance to the often-turbulent teenage years, in body, mind and spirit. The refreshing lift from Spearmint, for example, can boost the mood and bring clarity or Roman Chamomile may encourage a sense of calm. By soothing stress, we pave the way for healthier skin, too–how we feel inside can often reflect on our skin’s surface.
Let’s explore some of the tried and true plant remedies for teenage skin in our collection.

Instead, she advocates for using gentle yet effective plant remedies to gently bring the skin into balance.
