5/5 - (1 vote)

A new school year has just come to a close, which means you're probably breathing a sigh of relief and ready for a brief summer break.  But if you're the parent of a teen, the end of a school year often means attending graduation ceremonies to commemorate a huge achievement in your young adult's life.

That's why Clean & Clear is bringing you a terrific assortment of products that will help your teen put their best face forward on one of the biggest days of their lives.  Check out the following items, make one last trip to the store and then enjoy the ceremonies.  You'll have one happy teen with a renewed sense of confidence!

Clean & Clear, the teen experiential skincare expert, has several products to keep your child's skin looking beautiful.  Here are two of my favorites that both mom and kiddo can use to look great:

Clean & Clear Advantage Acne Spot Treatment, a breakthrough formula with the proven acne fighting ingredient of 2% salicylic acid and a proprietary synergistic naturals complex, has been clinically shown to quickly reduce the visible signs of breakouts while being gentle and mild to the skin.  During clinical testing, the transparent gel formula was shown to work quickly to reduce the redness and size of pimples.

Nearly three‐quarters of young women ages 13‐24 struggle with oily skin every day and identify recurring oiliness as a key aspect of frustration and bother. Recognizing that oil absorption is an unmet need, the Clean & Clear Brand developed the Clean & Clear Advantage Oil Absorbing Collection to help control unwanted shine.

The line contains a breakthrough POWDERPARTICLES™ technology with rice protein that targets excess shine by absorbing 50 percent more oil than a leading ingredient. Combined with salicylic acid to treat and help prevent breakouts, this collection is the ideal solution to help control blemishes and shine.

Banish the daily shine for good with the Clean & Clear Oil Absorbing Sheets.  These take-along sheets remove excess oil without smudging make-up and without leaving a residue on the skin's surface.  They are smooth, flexible sheets that change color with use so young women can actually see them working. The sheets are conveniently packaged in a slim, pop-up package for instant, on the go freshening anytime, anywhere.

Here are a few good tips from the experts to get you and your teen camera-ready for the big graduation ceremony:

Expert “Youthologist” and Author: Vanessa Van Petten

  • “Graduation day can be one of the most memorable, but also most stressful, days of a teen’s life. Be sure to prepare early. Designate a family member to be in charge of the video camera so every special moment is captured. And, if teens want to be glowing in pictures, they should start taking care of their skin at least two weeks before the big day. Also remind them to break in their shoes—especially if they are new. Grads always end up walking way more than they would expect on the big day.”

Dermatologist: Dr. Whitney Bowe

  • FOR TEENS: “Keep cool by using a lightweight, oil free moisturizer with an SPF of 30 or above so the skin can breathe but it's still protected from the sun's rays. Stick to either a tinted BB cream or simply dust a bronzer over the forehead, nose and cheekbones to give skin a glow without the risk of foundation dripping down one’s face mid-ceremony!”
  • FOR MOMS: “Pack cold water to sip and press the cool bottle against your wrists and behind your knees to help bring your core temperature down. Don't forget to pack a broad-brimmed hat and feel free to use the graduation program as a fan!”
