This is everything we love for tweens and teens right now

From first skincare routines to first periods, the tween and teen years bring plenty of new milestones, and the right products can make each one feel a little easier. This is our edit of what we’re loving for tweens and teens right now, from clever period underwear to skincare designed specifically for young skin.
WUKA Stretch Express Fit Period Pants
£9.95, Shop now

Available exclusively at Tesco, WUKA’s Stretch Express Fit Period Pants are the most affordable pair the brand has ever sold, making reusable period protection far more accessible for first periods. Designed for medium flow, each pair absorbs 15ml (the equivalent of three tampons or two pads) and stretches to fit three sizes, so they grow with them. They’re tag-free, vegan and carbon neutral, and you’ll find them in Tesco Express stores nationwide.
Spots & Stripes Teen Skin Gift Box
£49, Shop now

Spots & Stripes makes skincare formulated specifically for young skin, and its Teen Skin Gift Box is a brilliant introduction to a simple routine. Inside are three full-size essentials: the brand’s best-selling Gentle Cleansing Lotion, the award-winning Super Balm (a multi-purpose spot zapper, lip smoother and bite buster) and a Hydrating Face Mist, plus an organic cotton muslin cloth. It comes in a pale blue stripy box for girls or a dark blue version for boys, finished with stickers and a card.
Spots & Stripes Mood Spray Trio Gift Box
£49, Shop now

For teens juggling exams, busy schedules and late nights, this trio of aromatherapy sprays from Spots & Stripes makes a thoughtful gift. Happy helps to calm nerves and boost confidence, Focus clears the head before homework or revision, and Sleep helps them drift off at the end of the day. Made with orange blossom and aloe water, they come as three full-size 50ml bottles in the brand’s signature pale blue gift box.
