Natural blemish wash for tweens, teens
Good For You Girls productsA skin care company that specializes in natural products for tweens and teens has created a blemish wash with natural beta hydroxy acids and salicylic acids. While exfoliation can be good to help remove dead surface cells, products aimed at the tween/teen market typically contain coarse ingredients such as shells and nuts that can leave microscopic lacerations, redness and irritation. Good For You Girls Blemish Wash contains several ingredients for gentle exfoliation and blemish protection without causing damage or irritation: jojoba beads, pineapple and papaya, willow bark extract, meadowsweet extract and pumpkin seed extract. It also contains organic chamomile, calendula and kelp, ingredients that soothe skin and calm redness. All Good For You Girls products are free of parabens, sulfates, petrochemicals, dyes and synthetic fragrance.
