I’ve partnered with the HEALTHY ESSENTIALS® Program from Johnson & Johnson Consumer Inc. to share how we keep teen acne under control.

I remember when I was in high school and the excitement of prom time. It started long before the dance was even on the horizon. We all wanted to look our best and it was so fun preparing for the big day. We would go to dress stores and look in magazines for the latest styles for what we would wear, and how we wanted our hair, makeup, and nails to look. It was such a fun time!

Now that my oldest is a senior, it is even more fun seeing her experience prom time. I know how important this time of year is for teens, so I started helping her prepare to look and feel her best by making sure she had a good skincare regimen in place. I want her to have a carefree time without the worry of acne breakouts. I just want her to have fun!

We keep her acne breakouts under control by creating morning and nighttime rituals to keep her skin healthy and glowing every day, especially as we gear up for the big night! I know that keeping her skin looking great really builds her self-confidence too, so these steps she takes in the morning and night are very important for her all around health and well being.

One of the most important aspects of achieving prom ready skin is having the right tools available for teens to clean and moisturize their skin each day. Maddie’s favorite skincare products are CLEAN & CLEAR® MORNING BURST® Facial Cleanser and CLEAN & CLEAR® MORNING BURST® Hydrating Gel Moisturizer. She loves how clean and healthy her skin feels when she uses them and she adores the citrus scent.

  • Yep! Clean and Clear is really trustworthy product! been using it since i was in college until now.

  • I swear by Clean and Clear! I have used it since I was a teen, and even now at almost 30 I still experience breakouts. However, Clean and Clear helps keep breakouts at bay and helps treat those pesky pimples that do pop up on occasion. Clear skin is a huge part of having confidence especially as a teen. Clean and Clear has so many great products to help get that confidence.

  • Clean and Clear is a teenager staple! I used it all through my teen years and it definitely kept my skin looking good.
