Oxygen Skincare, a Nelson-based company with more than 20 years experience in the organics business, has recently released a new range for teens. It’s made from only natural ingredients found in plants and essential oils. The range includes:
 
Oxygen Teen 2 in 1 Cleanser For Problem Skin – Mandarin 
Foaming cleanser gently removes dirt, oil and impurities. Small grains of superfine pumice gently exfoliate skin, for a deeper cleanse and unblocking the surface from clogged pores and dead skin cells.
 
 

Oxygen Teen Oil Control Toner          
A gentle mist that helps skin reach its natural PH levels after cleansing. A must item as it’s vital to rebalance the skin’s moisture levels prior to moisturising. RRP $21.00
 

Oxygen Teen Moisturiser for Problem Skin – Cucumber       
A ligh,t non-greasy cream at smells like cucumber and leaves your face feeling fresh while the natural ingredients ensure moisture is retained in skin. RRP$25.00
