What is zinc?

Skincare

Zinc is a mineral that you might find in skincare products, but it can also be found naturally in food, as well as in supplement form. It helps to keep sebum (the natural oils in your skin) in check, so it can help prevent clogged pores and breakouts.

When is the right age to use it?

Zinc is a pretty gentle ingredient. It’s safe to use at all ages.

Why should teens use it?

If you’re having a breakout or your skin feels oily or congested, reach for a product that contains zinc (like our Clear Skin Fix Mask Microfine Wonder Scrub, or Clear & Glow Tonic Juice) and use once or twice a week.

Because zinc has anti-inflammatory benefits and soothing properties, it can help to reduce redness too.

One of the most important steps in finding the right routine for you is understanding your skin type. Once you know that, you’ll be able to choose the right products to keep it as happy and as healthy as possible. Button label
