1. Sunscreen

Sunscreen is one skin care product that isn't restricted to age or gender. Individuals of all ages must add it to their routine, especially teenagers as it protects their tender skin from sun damage, photoaging and tanning. Trust us when we say there's no better skin care investment than sunscreen.

Swirlster Says: Get it with the Lotus UV Screen Matte Gel which has gel consistency, a soothing matte finish, SPF 50 and both UVA and UVB protection. It is available for Rs 251 from 315. Shop here.

2. Lip Balm

As lips have no glands of their own, they need external help to stay moisturised. Do so with a lip balm that will protect them from sun rays and keep them free of chapping and flaking, sometimes with a delightful flavour.

Swirlster Says: Get it with the Malibu Sun Stick Lip Balm which has SPF 30 and is water resistant. It is available for Rs 195. Shop here.

3. BB Cream

Makeup and the right age to use it may be a touchy topic for teenagers so for a special function, a BB cream can do instead. It's much lighter than traditional base makeup and has added benefits like sun protection, making it a smart choice for occasional use which doesn't weigh the skin down.

Swirlster Says: Get it with the Sugar Goddess Of Flawless BB Cream which has SPF 30+. It is available for Rs 799. Shop here.

4. Body Lotion

Don't forget that your body needs attention just like your face. A body lotion will keep your skin healthy and nourished so that cracking and dry patches stay far away.

Swirlster Says: Get it with the Body Cupid Cherrilicious Body Lotion which uses premium botanical oils; no parabens or mineral oils. It is available for Rs 249 from Rs 687. Shop here.

5. Scrub

One of the leading causes of acne and dullness is dead skin that isn't cleared and blocks the pores. A gentle scrubbing every week removes discarded cells, clears the pores and leaves skin fresher and smoother.
