Teen & pre-teen routine
Adolescence often means oily skin, blackheads and acne.
Hormonal changes during puberty lead to a number of physical upheavals, particularly skin changes. During this period, the sebaceous glands begin to produce excess sebum (hello pimples, blackheads and microcysts!), particularly in the T zone (nose, forehead and chin).
In order to minimize this manifestation, it is important from pre-adolescence, then throughout adolescence, to adopt the right gestures and an adapted, natural and organic beauty routine (no endocrine disruptors and ingredients harmful to the skin). health on young skin!).
Here is an easy routine for your teen or pre-teen in 4 steps:
STEP 1: Gently clean in one step
Gently apply a cotton pad soaked in our ORGANIC MICELLAR WATER to the face morning and evening . Repeat until the cotton is clean.
Why our ORGANIC MICELLAR WATER ?
100% natural and organic, it eliminates sebum and impurities in a single action, without damaging the hydrolipidic film (unlike conventional micellar waters which strip the hydrolipidic barrier and cause a rebound effect, namely an overproduction of sebum some time later to compensate for this stripping) thanks to its ultra gentle formulation and its main active ingredients: honey, immortelle flower and witch hazel.
Why use ORGANIC MICELLAR WATER for teenagers rather than double cleansing with a cleansing oil and a gentle cleansing gel?
Of course, you can also offer them double cleansing - just as effective as micellar water! However, the key to success in skin care - beyond product quality - is RE-GU-LA-RI-TY. And we know our pre-teens and teens, if the routine is too long, they risk not sticking to it every day! Micellar water is the simplest gesture and is often preferred by our teenagers over double cleansing.
STEP 2: Regulate sebum
Apply our ORGANIC SEBOREGULATOR SERUM morning and evening to clean, dry skin, the ultimate anti-imperfection treatment!
Why our ORGANIC SEBOREGULATING SERUM ?
This highly concentrated gel treatment contains propolis, a zinc & oligoalginate complex, hyaluronic acid, as well as cornflower extract. These active ingredients prevent and treat all skin disorders linked to imperfections and acne: excessive sebum production, bacterial spots, acne lesions, inflammation and scarring. They also relieve feelings of heating, while limiting shine and improving the biodynamic properties of the skin.
Very effective, it really is the ideal serum for our teenagers!
STEP 3: Moisturize without excess with a non-comedogenic cream
For skin with a tendency to be very oily, the hydration provided by the ORGANIC SEBORE-REGULATING SERUM may be sufficient. For other skin types, you cannot ignore a good moisturizer: then apply our ORGANIC JOLI TEINT LÉGER TREATMENT.
Why our ORGANIC PRETTY LIGHT COMPLEXION TREATMENT ?
Rich in natural moisturizing and antioxidant active ingredients, this light and fluid treatment (UNTINTED) preserves the skin's youthfulness without greasing it . Its fluid texture provides just the right amount of hydration to young skin, while leaving a non-greasy velvet finish.

STEP 4: Exfoliate regularly with AHAs (fruit acids)
AHAs are essential in anti-imperfection and anti-acne routines because they refine skin texture, fight blackheads and comedones and restore radiance to dull complexions.
STEP 5: Nourish and treat the skin from the inside
Healthy skin begins with a diet and supplementation rich in essential micronutrients, notably probiotics (to balance the intestinal flora - directly linked to the skin flora) and antioxidants (to strengthen the body, boost the body's defenses immune and reduce inflammation).
For this, we recommend regular courses of PROPOLIS combined with a daily intake of fresh FLORICIA pollen.
Why our PROPOLIS ?
To treat blemishes and acne, it is absolutely necessary to reduce inflammation in the body. However, propolis (when it is sufficiently concentrated in polyphenols) is the natural anti-inflammatory par excellence!
Our propolis is the most concentrated in polyphenols on the market, and thus helps to treat the inflammation that causes blemishes and acne.
We offer several galenics but for adolescents, we recommend either propolis ampoules (alcohol-free and easy to take or mix in a juice) or propolis capsules (alcohol-free, tasteless).
PROTOCOL (3 month treatment):
In terms of active ingredients, 1 ampoule = 2 capsules.
1 ampoule per day for 20 days, or 2 capsules per day (1 in the morning, 1 in the evening). Take a 10 day break. Resume 20 days. Etc.
Why our FRESH FLORICIA POLLEN?
Blemishes and acne are also linked to digestion problems, unbalanced intestinal flora and a diet poor in micronutrients essential for skin health. Everything that fresh FLORICIA pollen can regulate!
Combining the prebiotic action of fibers with the probiotic action of lactoferments which provide friendly bacteria to the intestinal flora and protect the digestive tract, our fresh FLORICIA pollen constitutes an excellent symbiotic to act on digestion and intestinal flora. FLORICIA also provides micronutrients (vitamins, trace elements, minerals, etc.) essential for healthy skin.
Please note, these benefits are only true for FRESH pollen. Because unlike DRY pollen in a jar, our FRESH pollen preserves all of its lactic ferments, vitamins and other micronutrients.
PROTOCOL (Without interruption)
A large tablespoon during breakfast (on a fruit salad, in a compote, juice, etc.)
Fresh pollen is a food, it can be eaten every day of the year!
By adopting these simple actions, and accompanying them with a healthy lifestyle, your teenager will have visible (and lasting) results from 3 months. Regularity is fundamental, as is support. So if you or your teenager would like more advice, do not hesitate to write to us at contact@apicia.eu !
