When it comes to skincare for tweens, keeping it simple and fun is the secret to success. Tweens don’t need a complicated 10-step routine—just a few easy habits to keep their skin fresh and healthy. Whether your tween is dealing with breakouts, dryness, or just learning the basics, these must-know skincare hacks will make their routine effortless (and something they’ll actually stick to!).
Hack #1: The 60-Second Rule for Cleansing
Most tweens rush through washing their face, but here’s a game-changing tip: lather for 60 seconds! ⏳
✨ Why it works: Washing for a full minute gives the cleanser time to break down dirt, oil, and sunscreen. It also helps gently exfoliate without the need for harsh scrubs.
👉 Try this: Make it fun by setting a timer or singing part of their favorite song while they wash. With Be-Tween’s Aloe Cleansing Ball, it’s easy to lather up while keeping their routine lighthearted and mess-free!
Hack #2: Moisturizing on Damp Skin for Maximum Hydration
Tweens might think moisturizer is optional, but it’s actually essential for keeping their skin balanced—even if they have oily skin! The key is applying it to damp skin to lock in moisture.
💦 Why it works: Damp skin absorbs hydration better, making moisturizer work more effectively without feeling heavy or greasy.
👉 Try this: Right after washing, have them gently pat (not rub!) their face with a towel and apply Aloe Moisturizer while their skin is still slightly damp. This helps keep their skin soft and hydrated all day long!
Hack #3: Make Face Masks a Self-Care Treat
Getting tweens excited about skincare can be a challenge, but turning it into a fun self-care ritual makes all the difference. A weekly peel-off mask is a great way to reset their skin and make skincare feel like a treat, not a chore.
🎭 Why it works: Masks help remove buildup, control excess oil, and give skin a fresh, healthy glow. Plus, peeling it off is super satisfying!
👉 Try this: Mix up the Aloe Mask Powder with water and make it a parent-tween bonding moment—because let’s be real, we could all use a little extra self-care!
The Takeaway: Keep It Simple & Fun!
The best skincare hacks for tweens are the ones that make their routine easy, effective, and enjoyable. By focusing on simple habits—like washing for 60 seconds, moisturizing on damp skin, and making masking a fun ritual—you’re setting them up for healthy skincare habits that last.
