The best skincare for teens and young skin

Introducing: Gen skincare. An affordable range of simple, yet high-quality products, designed for young skin. Each product has been carefully formulated, dermatologically tested and toxicologist assessed to ensure every ingredient is suitable for teen skin, while remaining gentle on sensitive types.

“We know that young skin can’t withstand many of the strong active ingredients found in products for older skin. This collection has been created to ensure teens have easy access to affordable but effective products that nurture and protect the skin, without overburdening it.” – Sue Wilcock, Beauty Product Development Manager.

Priced at just €4, our four-piece product range can be used individually or together, as part of a daily skincare regime. Each product is fragrance-free and designed to support, nourish and protect the skin to help aid or begin your skincare journey with confidence. Scroll down for the breakdown of each product and an easy step-by-step routine.

To further support suitability for young and sensitive skin types, all formulations underwent dermatological testing, including:

• Sensitive skin panel: Testing was performed under controlled conditions with participants, including individuals with self-reported sensitive skin. This helps verify that the products are gentle and well-tolerated.

• Patch testing: Formulations were patch tested to assess for potential irritation or allergic reactions. Results confirmed that the products are non-irritating and suitable for sensitive skin.

These measures ensure the products meet high standards of skin compatibility and are appropriate for use on younger consumers with delicate or reactive skin.

Step 1: cleansing balm and milk

The foundation of every post-makeup skincare routine. Designed to melt away makeup while revitalising the skin, our cleansing balm transforms into a luxe oil that gently dissolves makeup and impurities. For a creamier option, reach for the PS...Melt Away Cleanser instead. Just dab the formula onto one of our reusable cleansing pads sweep across your skin, rinse with lukewarm water, and voilà! Instant clean skin, unlocked.

Step 2: wash and tone

For a gentle morning and night reset, our PS...Wonder Cleanser sweeps away dirt, oil and helps reduce signs of blemishes, without disrupting your skin barrier. Follow up with a few spritzes of the PS... Press Reset Toner to soothe and minimise the appearance of your pores.

Step 3: face mask

Aside from being a fun way to unwind with friends or family, face masks are an efficient way to give your skin a weekly boost of replenishing ingredients. Formulated with shea butter, cica, vegan squalane and niacinamide, our PS...Dream Glow Face Mask deeply moisturises the skin, creating a radiant finish. Plus, the compact packaging includes a spatula for a mess-free application at home or on-the-go. Soothing, hydrating and glow-enhancing, what’s not to love?

Step 4: moisturise

For when the weather shifts constantly and unpredictably, a daily moisturiser is crucial for preventing dry skin. The PS...Hydrating Whip Moisturiser is your go-to for creating a dewy glow, while the PS...Shine Free Moisturiser delivers a matte finish. Whichever option you prefer, both are infused with niacinamide to help calm, condition and rebalance the skin. Bonus points for the push-down pump applicator too!

Step 5: serums

Retinol and glycolic acid may be a trending topic on social media, but for young skin, a gentle serum that targets skin concerns is all you need. Case in point: our PS...Blemish Wand. This fast-acting formula is powered by salicylic acid, known for its ability to deeply penetrate pores, gently exfoliate and help clear out excess oil and impurities that can cause breakouts. A must-have for those with blemish-prone skin.

Step 6: SPF

Meet our sun care-skincare hybrid. With SPF 50 protection, our new PS...Solar Shield Moisturiser helps defend against harmful UV rays, whilst hydrating the skin. No chalky or greasy residue, just a smooth, lightweight finish that sits perfectly under skin tint or foundation.
