Understanding Teen Skin: What's Happening & Why
Your skin is going through major changes right now because of hormones that affect both your face and body. These hormones can:
- Increase oil production (hello, shiny T-zone!)
- Trigger breakouts in unexpected places
- Create sensitivity that wasn't there before
- Cause dramatic shifts between dry and oily skin
The good news? With the right approach, you can work with these changes instead of fighting against them.
Face Care Essentials: Building Your First Routine
Morning Routine: 3 Simple Steps
1. Gentle Cleanse:
- Use Hylunia Facial Cleansing Gel with lukewarm (not hot!) water
- Massage in circular motions for 30-60 seconds
- Rinse thoroughly - residue leads to breakouts
2. Balance & Prep:
- Apply Hylunia Colloidal Silver Mist to freshly cleansed skin
- This step helps control excess oil while fighting bacteria that cause breakouts
- Bonus: It's refreshing and can be used throughout the day
3. Light Hydration:
- Apply a small amount of Hylunia Multi-function Hyaluronic Acid Serum
- Yes, even oily skin needs hydration! Skipping moisturizer actually makes oil worse
- This lightweight formula won't clog pores or feel heavy
Evening Routine: Reset & Repair
1. Thorough Cleanse:
- Use Hylunia Facial Cleansing Gel to remove the day's buildup
- For makeup wearers: Double cleanse by using the cleanser twice
- Be gentle - scrubbing harshly makes inflammation worse
2. Targeted Treatment:
- Apply Hylunia Advanced Acne Spot Minimizer Gel only to active breakouts
- Less is more! Use a tiny amount directly on spots
- For larger breakout areas, try Hylunia Colloidal Silver Mist first
3. Balanced Moisture:
- Apply Hylunia Multi-function Hyaluronic Acid Serum to slightly damp skin
- Focus on any areas that feel tight or dry
- Avoid heavy creams that might trigger more breakouts
Weekly Treatments: Reset Button
Once-Weekly Exfoliation:
- Use Hylunia Grape Seed Facial Scrub once weekly (not more!)
- Apply to damp skin with gentle pressure
- Focus on T-zone (forehead, nose, chin) where most congestion occurs
- Skip this step during active breakouts or when skin feels irritated
Occasional Mask Treatment:
- Apply Hylunia Antioxidant Mask once weekly for skin reset
- This helps clear pores without harsh ingredients
- Great before special events to reduce redness and calm skin
Body Care Basics: Beyond Just Your Face
Daily Body Care Routine
Shower Strategy:
- Use Hylunia Hydrate Body Wash with lukewarm water

- Keep showers under 10 minutes to prevent drying skin
Post-Shower Hydration:
- Apply Hylunia Healing & Restoring Cream to still-damp skin
- This fragrance-free formula won't irritate sensitive or acne-prone skin
- Pay extra attention to rough spots like elbows and knees
Weekly Body Treatments
Exfoliation for Breakout Zones:
- Use Hylunia Grape Seed Body Scrub 1-2 times weekly
- Focus on areas prone to breakouts or rough texture
- Gentle circular motions prevent "bacne" and other body breakouts
Spot Treatment:
- Apply Hylunia Colloidal Silver Mist to chest/back breakouts
- Let dry completely before dressing
- Wear loose, breathable fabrics to reduce friction

Smart Skin Habits Beyond Products
Lifestyle Factors That Affect Your Skin
Sleep & Stress Management:
