In episode two of our special Netmums mini-series on teen skin, host Wendy Golledge chats with mum Sarah and her teenage daughter Phoenix, alongside Consultant Dermatologist Dr. Alia Ahmed from Purifide (by the makers of Acnecide). Together, they share honest, real-world insights into managing blemish-prone skin – without turning the bathroom into a battleground.
Phoenix reveals how she’s built a skincare routine that works for her (even after a late night), Sarah opens up about supporting her without nagging, and Dr. Alia breaks down the essential steps for healthy, spot-prone skin – all with a myth-busting, practical approach.
In this episode, we cover:
- Skincare battles – how to reduce conflict over products and routines at home
- Daily routines that work – Phoenix’s consistency tips for clearer skin
- Expert steps – the importance of a strong routine: cleanse, treat, moisturise (and protect with SPF!)
- Myth-busting – why toothpaste and certain “miracle” cures can make things worse
- Parent pointers – motivating teens without sounding like a drill sergeant
- Boys skincare – why it matters just as much and how to get them on board
