Pimples, redness, blackheads, and troubled skin: a daily frustration for many young people. Especially in an age when everything is shared online, you want to feel good about your appearance. But how do you do that when your skin isn’t cooperating? A good skincare routine for young skin can really make a difference. As a skincare specialist, you’re in a great position to help with that. In this blog, you’ll learn how to create an effective facial treatment using Ginkel’s Young Skin Care line, and how to guide your clients at home to achieve the best results.
Why Good Skincare Is So Important for Young People
Many young people struggle with troubled skin. This is mainly due to hormonal changes, poor diet, and inadequate hygiene. As a result, pimples and blackheads often develop, which can significantly affect self-confidence. Fortunately, with the right skincare products and proper guidance, young people can restore their skin’s balance without irritating it. The Young Skin Care line was specially developed for sensitive, youthful skin. It has purifying and soothing properties and is easy to use—perfect for a fresh start to the school year!
The Power of a Salon Treatment
A treatment with the Young Skin Care line offers gentle yet effective care, specially formulated for young skin. The products deeply cleanse, soothe redness, and give the skin a fresh, radiant appearance without drying it out. Our Young Skin Care Professional Starter Kit includes all the products you need for a salon treatment in one convenient package. Here’s what the treatment looks like:
Step 1 | Cleaning
Start with a cleanser that suits your skin’s needs.
• Classic: Use our Multi-skin Cleansing Milk or Tonic for gentle, daily cleansing suitable for all skin types.
• Deep: For a more intensive treatment, choose the AHA Cleansing Tonic, which is ideal for removing dead skin cells and improving skin texture.
• Refreshing: The Young Skin Face Wash Foam has a light, foaming texture that refreshes the skin and leaves it feeling soft.
Step 2 | Exfoliation
Choose between the Young Skin Peeling 1% or the Cleansing Scrub.
• 1% Exfoliant: Apply to dry skin, let it sit, and remove with lukewarm water and sponges. The salicylic acid exfoliates, while SymCalmin® soothes the skin and reduces redness for a soft, refreshed appearance.
• Cleansing Scrub: Massage the scrub onto damp skin and rinse off. Salicylic acid cleanses the pores, while the combination of AHA and BHA removes dead skin cells and stimulates cell renewal. Enriched with prebiotics for healthy skin flora and bisabolol to soothe and soften the skin.
Step 3 | Gel Mask
Using a mask brush, apply a generous layer of the Young Skin Calming Face Mask. Leave the mask on for 15 minutes, then remove it with lukewarm water and sponges or a compress. This soothing gel mask, enriched with calendula and prebiotics, helps soften and balance the skin.
Step 4 | Moisturize
Finish the treatment with the Young Skin Face Cream and apply it using light, massaging motions. This purifying 24-hour cream, enriched with glycerin, Matrixyl®, shea butter, BHA (salicylic acid), and chamomile, not only provides long-lasting hydration but also helps keep the skin balanced. Glycerin supports the skin’s moisture balance, while Matrixyl® promotes skin repair and refines the skin’s texture. Salicylic acid gently exfoliates and helps reduce blemishes, while chamomile soothes and softens the skin.
For the best results, get started at home, too
A single salon treatment can make a big difference, but the real benefits come from a solid routine and guidance. Advise young people (and their parents) to continue using skincare products at home that are tailored to their skin type and needs. This way, their skin stays clean, hydrated, and balanced even between treatments.
That’s exactly what the Young Skin @Home Box is for : a complete skincare kit for home use. The box contains three gentle, effective products:
- Face Wash Foam (150 ml): a soap-free cleanser that deeply cleanses the pores
- Cleansing Scrub (100 ml): a gentle scrub that targets impurities
- Face Cream (50 ml): a 24-hour cream that moisturizes, soothes, and keeps the skin balanced
All products are specially formulated for young skin and are also easy to use. This makes it much easier for young people to maintain a proper skincare routine on their own, and it teaches them, in an accessible way, how to keep their skin healthy.
Tip for salons: Plan a back-to-school promotion! The start of the school year is the perfect time for fresh skin and a new routine. Schedule a skincare treatment around this time and attract young people with a special promotion, such as:
- A free gift with the purchase of the @Home Box
- Discount on the first treatment
- A Young Skin Care sample
Here’s how you can help young people achieve healthy, glowing skin.
