School is back in session, and while a new year means new uniforms, exam pressure and never-ending homework, many teenagers will be forced to navigate some pretty big hormonal changes – including skincare problems.
With this in mind, beauty brand 47 Skin, which is loved by beauty buffs for its formulas that leave their blemish-prone skin ‘clearer and smoother’. What’s more is it is offering a 10% discount on its best-selling bundles in a back-to-school offer – perfect for teens struggling with spots.
The 2-Step Cleanse and Protect Bundle, costing £47.59 instead of £53, with the offer, includes a daily cleanser that works to eliminate impurities and unclog pores. The included serum also aims to reduce spots and stubborn marks while keeping skin hydrated.
For a more thorough routine, the 3-Step Moisture Bundle – now priced at £135 down from £150 – pairs the cleanser and serum with a daily moisturiser. This combination promises hydration without the fear of clogging pores, making it ideal for complexions that are both breakout-prone and dehydrated.
The secret yet standout ingredient in 47 Skin’s formulas is Silver Chitoderm. Scientifically backed, it’s proven to eradicate 99.9% of blemish-causing bacteria, while also fading the appearance of dark spots and post-blemish marks. It also works to soothe inflamed breakouts, helping to clear and smooth out skin.
While 47 Skin touts this unique special ingredient, there are other skincare sets available on the market to help with skin problems. The Ordinary’s Essentials Bundle (£28.20, Boots) includes a hyaluronic acid daily moisturiser, a hyaluronic acid 2% and B5 hydrating serum, a squalane cleanser suitable for all skin types, and a niacinamide 10% + zinc 1% oil control serum, reports Birmingham Live.
Another option is Byoma’s So Clear Set (£14.99). This mini collection includes a Creamy Jelly Cleanser, Clarifying Serum and a Moisturising Gel Cream, all designed to brighten skin and reduce redness.
47 Skin’s bundles, however, have been hailed as a life-changing addition for teens, enabling them to start school with a bit more skin confidence.
One glowing testimonial revealed: “Through my late teenage years, I began to struggle with acne – it started as a little bit on my face but then spread all over my face. It began to damage my self-confidence.
“I felt like I had to always be wearing makeup for it to be okay for me to go outside. I would wear makeup every day, both to school and to training and playing rugby.
“I began to see a real difference in my skin when I started to use the Serum. I began to feel confident enough not to wear makeup every day, only when I want to. This has truly changed my life.”
Another happy 47 Skin user chimed in: “After my mum saw lots of positive reviews about 47 Skin, I decided to give it a try, and I’m so glad I did. After six months, my acne has definitely improved. I still get the occasional bad breakout, but it’s nothing like before. My skin looks clearer, smoother and healthier overall.”
However, not everyone was impressed. One disgruntled review read: “The products have not done the job they said they would.”
Although many people have been left please with the results. One person echoed the positive remarks, stating: “When I would look at my friends or just people in my school, people on social media, I noticed my skin wasn’t as good as theirs, and I used to feel self-conscious, but now I feel more confident than ever thanks to 47 Skin.“
