When to start a skincare regime

At what age should young women begin a skincare regime?

When you first start to notice excess oil on the skin, it’s definitely the time to start a good routine of cleansing and protecting your skin. Look for signs such as blackheads, which usually indicate that oil is not exiting the skin via follicles as it normally would. These tend to precede pimples unless addressed. The increase in oil will usually coincide with hormonal changes associated with puberty.
