This year more and more tweens and teens are using their mum’s skincare and haircare products. However, some products are just too powerful for younger skin. Products with harsh actives, anti-ageing ingredients, artificial synthetic fragrances, alcohol-based toners, acids, sulphates, and retinol shouldn’t be anywhere near the younger generations.
Trends for mother and daughter beauty seen on TikTok and similar social media sites are shared far and wide, and young girls and boys want to try out the trends, which can result in bad choices. The best thing to do is to look for specific skincare and haircare products that are fragrance-free, phthalates-free or have a high SPF to protect.
Some forward-thinking brands have been researching ingredients that can be used by both a younger and older generation, and some are even producing dual-age skincare.
We’ve highlighted a few brands that are doing just that, where mum and daughter can share skincare and haircare together.
Odylique
Odylique has produced a gentle skincare ritual to share between mother and daughter. When it comes to caring for younger skin, finding products that are safe, simple and genuinely gentle can be challenging. More families are seeking out clean options for children and teens, that’s why Oqylique has curated skin support for every generation.
Whether for a morning routine or evening wind-down, this simple collection of products is the perfect way for mums and daughters to share skincare. Every product is made with soothing, certified-organic ingredients to nourish sensitive skin at any age. There are no harsh chemicals, no unnecessary extras, just kind, effective skincare.
Step One – Odylique
Creamy Coconut Cleanser, £22.50 (200ml)
It lifts away makeup, dirt and grime without drying out the skin. Packed with nourishing olive and coconut oils plus calming rose water, perfect for young, sensitive, or easily irritated skin.
Step Two – Odylique
Balancing Citrus Super Tonic, £16 (50ml)
Spritz this refreshing citrus toner to tone, balance and hydrate in one quick step. Made with concentrated rose petals and uplifting essential oils to help calm and refine the skin.
Step Three – Odylique
Timeless Rose Moisturiser, £27 (50ml)
This light, yet luxurious rose moisturiser helps soothe, hydrate and protect. You’ll find it is jam-packed with calming rose, antioxidant-rich botanicals, alongside nourishing oils. It helps reduce redness, gives smooth skin, and supports a healthy glow, even for those with sensitive or rosacea-prone skin.
Step Four – Odylique
Spot-On Serum, £20 (75ml)
This spot-on serum does it all. Whether it’s a pesky blemish, post-gym breakout, or even a mosquito bite, this serum has got you covered. With calming tea tree, lavender, and echinacea, it is gentle enough for younger, sensitive skin yet powerful enough for bigger flare-ups. All-in-all Spot-On Serum cools, calms, and speeds up recovery.
Bonus Step – Odylique
3-in-1 Maca Face Mask, £20 (48g)
Use this mask weekly, rather than daily. Mineral clays and baobab help detox and recharge the skin, while sugar cane and oats exfoliate for a smooth and radiant finish. It needs mixing with water, yoghurt, or toner before adding to the skin, and after 5-10minutes it will leave the skin fresh and polished.
Beauty Works X Molly Mae
Soft Bristle Brush Duo, £48
The collaboration that we’ve all been waiting for, Beauty Works X Molly Mae! This new collection of hair accessories and hair necessities includes the soft bristle brush duo, which is perfect for mum and daughter. Two compact, detangling brushes for smoothing and styling on the go. There’s a larger brush and a travel sized brush, the only issue is who is getting which one!
Fill Wash Repeat
Hair & Body Care Refill Kit, £32.50
Fill Wash Repeat brings sustainable luxury to your daily beauty routine, with a specially curated set of four indulgent essentials. Ideal to share for mother and daughter, as you’ll find Orange Peel Scented Hair Wash and matching Orange Peel Conditioner. There’s also Ho-Wood Body Wash and Fig-Leaf Hand Soap, each elegantly housed in screen-printed amber glass bottles with aluminium caps and refill-friendly pumps.
These biodegradable, dye-free, sulphate free formulas are septic-safe, certified vegan, and cruelty free – Leaping Bunny approved. Complete with a striking ‘Refill Road’ gift box, which is entirely plastic-free.
