Body Washes

I let my tween daughter use this product as she loves going to beauty stores but not much is suitable. This is a good compromise.
Delícia Drench™ Shower Oil

Sol de Janeiro products are always a winner with tweens because they smell good and have bright packaging.
Body Wash and Shower Gel - Sol de Janeiro

This is a good option for my pre-teen with sleep issues. I’m not sure if it’s the lavender or something else, but using this in her nightly shower has helped our bedtime!

A fun one for tweens who want their shower products to feel a bit more grown up. Smells good, looks cute in the bathroom and makes an everyday body wash feel like a little treat without needing to get into serious skincare.

Very tween-coded and a fun little skincare extra. My kid loves the whole face-mist ritual, and this feels like a harmless way to let them enjoy beauty without getting into strong actives or complicated routines.

A really good tween cleanser if they’re starting to get interested in skincare but don’t need anything harsh. It feels fun and current, but it’s still just a nice gentle everyday cleanser, exactly the kind of thing I’m happy for my kid to use.

Cute packaging definitely helps with the tween appeal. We tend to alternate cleanser brands rather than sticking to one forever, and this is one we come back to because it feels gentle, simple and still cool enough that she actually wants to use it.
Glossier Milky Jelly Gentle Gel Face Cleanser 177mL

A nice simple moisturiser for a tween who wants a “real” skincare routine without going overboard. Lightweight, easy to use and feels a little more exciting than a basic moisturiser without introducing a bunch of unnecessary actives.

My pre-teen has told me this is her fave. Reviews online suggest it’s safe for kids.

This one is always a hit. It feels a little bit fancy, smells great and turns putting on lip balm before bed into a whole thing 😂 She loves her bedtime ‘skincare’.

I allow my tween to wear this product because it is not too expensive and this range is not too dark. The pen click mechanism is cool!
Catrice Melt & Shine Juicy Lip Balm

A favourite in our house. My kid loves these and has basically collected every colour and variation. 😂 Cute, fun and very tween-approved, but still just an easy lip product I’m completely happy for her to use.

No self-respecting tween is without the Sol de Janeiro! Of course this is just one of many variations we own!

I only let me daughter wear nails on the holidays. She’s still quite young but I did allow this brand because they went on easily and stayed on for more than two days!
