One thing is for sure you are never to young to start a good skin care regiment. For young teens there are so many acne treatment cream products out there. Which ones are the best? Or worse for the skin? I know my teens have tried a few of them and did not like them for one reason or the other. There was one that had the pads that made my younger son actually cry out as it burnt his skin. I guess they figure that the acne goes away and so does the skin. Be careful when you are purchasing these products. I think that with washing, eating right and sun screen your acne will be slight. If not maybe a doctor can lead you to the best products
