How to Build a Simple Teen Skincare Routine for Summer
As summer rolls around, days get longer, the sun gets stronger, and our skin starts to feel the effects of heat, sweat, and sunscreen build-up. For teens, this change in season can mean more oil, more breakouts, and extra sensitivity — especially when juggling time outdoors, sports, and social events.
The good news? Building a simple, effective skincare routine for summer doesn’t have to be complicated (or expensive). In fact, the best routines are light, consistent, and focused on protection and balance — exactly what teen skin needs most when temperatures rise.
That’s why we’ve created the Screen + Clean Teen Skincare Bundle, your easy go-to duo for clear, balanced, and protected skin all summer long. Let’s dive into what makes this bundle (and a few bonus recommendations) your teen’s warm-weather skincare essential lineup.
Why Summer Skincare Matters for Teens
Teen skin is already navigating big hormonal changes that can lead to oiliness, breakouts, and sensitivity. Add in summer heat, humidity, sweat, and UV exposure, and suddenly your pores are working overtime.
Here’s what happens:
- Sweat and sunscreen build-up can clog pores and trigger breakouts.
- Increased sun exposure can darken acne marks and increase pigmentation.
- Oil production spikes, making skin feel greasy or congested.
- Dehydration and sunburn can make skin feel tight or irritated.
That’s why a summer teen skincare routine should focus on three key goals:
1. Cleanse deeply but gently to remove oil, sweat, and dirt.
2. Protect from harmful UV rays to prevent damage and pigmentation.
3. Hydrate lightly to keep skin balanced without contributing to excess oil.
And the best part? You only need a few smart products to tick every box.
Step 1: Cleanse — Keep it Fresh with the Sweet Orange Balancing Cleanser 🍊
Start and end every summer day with cleansing — the foundation of healthy skin. Our Sweet Orange Balancing Cleanser is a teen favourite because it’s effective, gentle, and smells so refreshing.
Why It’s Perfect for Summer
This purifying gel cleanser is formulated with fruit derived AHAs and soothing Aloe Vera, helping to lift away excess oil, sunscreen, and dirt without stripping the skin’s natural moisture barrier. It’s designed especially for oily, combination, and breakout-prone skin, making it ideal for teen complexions during hot, humid months.
Key Benefits
- Deeply cleanses and purifies without drying
- Fights breakouts and inflammation naturally
- Refreshing natural scent and texture - providing an enjoyable cleansing experience.
- Balances sebum production
This cleanser is the perfect first and last step in your Screen + Clean routine — light, energising, and powerful enough to keep summer breakouts under control.
Step 2: Protect — Shield Your Skin with Soul Sista Butta Block Mineral SPF ☀️
Sunscreen is non-negotiable. But finding a sunscreen that doesn’t feel sticky, clog pores, or leave a white cast can be tricky, particularly for teen skin.
Enter the Soul Sista Butta Block Mineral SPF Stick, your new beach bag bestie and school-day essential.
Why Teens Love It
This isn’t your average sunscreen. It’s a solid mineral SPF stick, meaning it’s super easy to apply — no mess, no greasy residue, and no harsh chemicals. Teens can swipe it on before heading out the door or reapply between classes, surf sessions, or sports practice.
Key Benefits
- Zinc-based mineral protection that blocks UV rays naturally — no chemical filters.
- Non-comedogenic: Won’t clog pores or cause breakouts.
- Ideal for sensitive skin: Free from synthetic fragrance, parabens, and other nasties.
- Portable & reapply-friendly: Throw it in your bag and top up on the go.
- Hydrating base: Nourishes skin while protecting it, leaving a smooth, non-greasy finish.
Sunscreen isn’t just about preventing sunburn — it’s the best defence against premature ageing, pigmentation, and acne scarring that worsens with sun exposure. The Butta Block makes sun protection easy, fun, and teen-approved.
Step 3: Balance — Lightweight Hydration with LAMAV Skin Balancing Fluid 🌿
Heavy moisturisers and thick creams can feel like too much in summer, especially for teens with oily or acne-prone skin. But skipping hydration altogether can backfire — when skin feels dehydrated, it actually produces more oil to compensate.
That’s where LAMAV’s Skin Balancing Fluid comes in — a lightweight, nutrient-packed moisturiser that hydrates without the shine.
Why It’s a Summer Essential
This fluid absorbs quickly, delivers long-lasting moisture, and helps restore skin balance. It’s infused with **Niacinamide (Vitamin B3)** and **Vitamin C**, two powerhouse ingredients that brighten and even skin tone while helping to fade acne marks and pigmentation — common concerns for teen skin in summer.
Key Benefits
- Lightweight hydration: Perfect for warm weather, leaving no greasy residue.
- Balances oil production: Keeps skin smooth, fresh, and matte.
- Brightens complexion: Fades marks and uneven tone from sun exposure.
- Soothes and strengthens: Calms redness and supports a healthy skin barrier.
It’s the perfect final step after cleansing and sunscreen — or apply it at night to help your skin recover from long days in the sun.

Simple, effective, and made with clean ingredients, this bar is a summer staple for active teens, especially boys who are outdoors, at the gym, or dealing with body breakouts.
Why It’s Great for Summer
This soap-free cleansing bar helps wash away sweat, grime, and excess oil from the face and body — all without drying out the skin. It’s formulated with gentle natural ingredients to support the skin’s microbiome and balance oil levels.

Why Less is More When It Comes to Teen Skincare
With so many skincare trends and viral products online, it’s easy to think more steps means better results — but that’s not always true. For teen skin, simplicity is key. Using too many actives or harsh products can strip and stress the skin, leading to more breakouts, dryness, or sensitivity.
The Screen + Clean Teen Skincare Bundle was created to help teens (and parents) feel confident that what’s going on their skin is safe, effective, and gentle. Each product is:
- Artificial Fragrance-free
- Cruelty-free and clean
- Dermatologist-tested for balance and sensitivity
The goal isn’t perfection — it’s consistency. Clear, glowing skin starts with building healthy habits and keeping your routine simple.
