Witch Hazel Blemish Stick

Breakouts and blemishes are an unfortunate part of growing up, and dealing with their occurrence can be stressful and difficult. Prep U is proud to introduce its Blem Pen, an all-natural approach that uses witch hazel and other natural ingredients to address the blemish-causing environment in a convenient stick form.

Prep U is dedicated to producing all-natural products for the self-care needs of pre-teen and adolescent males. Of all the smells, sweat issues, voice changes, and other problems caused by puberty, acne may be the most difficult to address and the one most harmful to self-esteem.

What Causes Breakouts?

Guys experience breakouts when puberty triggers increased sweat, oil, and bacteria that clog pores, and the skin’s inflammatory response produces blemishes. Unfortunately, one blemish often leads to another, and guys are often tempted to pick and squeeze blemishes because they can be painful and annoying. This habit can lead to scarring that will stay with him for a lifetime.

One of the greatest steps you can take to help your guy deal with breakouts is to arm him with products that can limit the causes of breakouts and lessen the inflammatory responses.

Basic Steps to Manage Acne

At the first signs of puberty, you should begin teaching your son about hygiene and how his bodily changes will require new routines to take care of effects like body odor and acne. While you introduce deodorant and emphasize self-care and its importance, don’t forget to discuss acne. Management of the problem will be far easier if addressed early.

The Prep U Blem Pen is a convenient product that your son will be able to slip into his backpack or duffel and apply when needed.

One of the primary ingredients of the Blem Pen, witch hazel, has several characteristics that may help manage breakouts.

• The first quality of witch hazel that can aid in the management of acne is its astringent nature, drying up excess oil and reducing the presence of bacteria that causes acne.
• Witch hazel also contains tannins that have been shown to have some antimicrobial qualities, creating a less hospitable environment for the same bacteria.
• Red, angry blemishes can also be calmed by the anti-inflammatory properties of witch hazel.

Encouraging your son to begin a regimen of washing his face regularly and using the Prep U Blem Pen can help him manage the frequency and intensity of breakouts.

Ingredients Matter

There is no alcohol in the Blem Pen. Alcohol can be too drying on the skin, and the overly dry conditions result in irritation, a failed skin barrier, and even more breakouts.

The Blem Pen does contain witch hazel as well as aloe vera and other all-natural ingredients that won’t dry out his skin.

As are our other Prep U products, the Blem Pen is all-natural. It has NO sulfates, parabens, SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulphate), glycol, phthalate, synthetic fragrance, GMO, cruelty-related production measures, gluten, or animal byproducts. We’re proud to produce dermatologist-recommended products.

Acne can affect your guy’s confidence much more than you might think. Help him manage the problem with all-natural products.
