You’ve tried the skincare.
You’ve changed the pillowcases.
But if your teen is still dealing with breakouts, dry skin, or scalp flare-ups — the problem might not be on their skin.
It might be in their shower water.
🧪 What’s Really in Shower Water?
Most Aussie homes use chlorinated tap water. It’s great for killing bacteria… not so great for your skin.
Chlorine and VOCs (volatile organic compounds) can:
-
Strip skin’s protective oils
-
Disrupt pH balance
-
Trigger inflammation and clogged pores
-
Irritate existing acne, eczema or dermatitis
And it’s worse with hot water + steam, which opens pores and increases absorption.
😬 Why Teens Are Extra Vulnerable
Teen skin is:
-
Oilier due to hormonal shifts
-
More reactive to pH changes
-
Already under stress from school, screens & sweat
-
Often over-washed with harsh products
Showering in chlorinated water = a recipe for constant breakouts and irritation.
