Dermalogica Introduces Teen Line Clean Start

Teen BBJ readers, listen up!

Just in time to get you ready for prom season, Dermalogica (one of my fave skin care brands) recognized that most products available to the teen demographic are harsh on skin and contain ingredients that strip the skin of its natural oils, triggering breakouts. Clean Start by Dermalogica is a system of eight products that addresses the needs of teenage skin. The system stays true to the same strict specifications all Dermalogica products follow: no artificial fragrances or colors, no mineral oils, no S.D. alcohol, and no comedogenic or allergy-causing ingredients. Dermalogica has also created cleanstart.dermalogica.com where teens and young adults can interact in a skin health forum, learning about the products, their skin, and more. The product lineup is comprised of eight items:

Wash Off ($20)
Face the day with a clean slate! This foaming wash clears away dead skin cells and extra oils to clean deep, banishing breakouts from your face, back…or wherever. Contains no artificial fragrance or color.
Key Ingredients:
Salicylic Acid dives deep, clearing trapped oils, wiping out breakout-causing bacteria and helping prevent future breakouts.
Botanical extracts help regulate oil production.
Orange Peel Oil revives, energizes and refreshes.

It’s a masque…it’s a scrub…it’s a breakout-fighting, pore-refining duo that delivers smoother, clearer and fresher skin! Apply and let set for 5-7 minutes. Purifying clays soak up excess oils and debris hidden deep in your skin, while a blend of plant extracts soothe and cool. Then scrub all over, letting the Silica granules polish away those skin-clogging, dull dead cells. Rinse and reveal a brand spanking new you! Contains no artificial fragrance or color.
