My 10 year old daughter has entered tween territory and has started raiding my beauty products. I can’t believe that a) I have a tween daughter and b) how into beauty products her and her peers are. As a parent navigating this new era it can be a bit overwhelming. I am here to help recommend mine and my daughters top tween beauty essentials 🙂 Always remember, a few products is more than enough for young skin.
Before we get into it, if you are wondering what a tween is. It’s kids between the ages 10 – 14. It’s definitely an exciting time for self expression and independence.
