    ACTUALLY it depends on the family. Some families can be OPEN and have a chuckle and be thankful. I'm still a teenager at nineteen and would be happy if my parents got me something like this rather than walk around very spotty!! Don't be so quick to assume a teeanger wouldn't like. Assume = !!! of U and ME. ;)
    Agree!! :D

    some people have a different sense of humour :confused:

    I guess it depends on the kids and maybe the relationship they have with the parents? I'm going to try and get some for my 23yr old & 16yr old to give as a stocking filler, they're both lucky and don't have a problem with spots but they do have loads of lotions & potions so would appreciate this set. I know my kids wouldn't be upset or offended if I gave them this kit, they'd just see it as a skincare set.

    How many of us will recieve bath sets, shower gel or deodarant this Christmas? Should we all be offended and think we're smelly? :confused::D

  • Hi All,

    My Son is almost 15 & is suffering with teenage skin, he would be over the moon to receive this, especially if it worked, he's desperate to get rid of the spots! Alas I have been unable to find any :( I will try first thing in the morning, maybe they will restock over night!

    I would just like to add my tuppence. As a teenager with severe acne, every dermatologist I dealt with told me that over the counter products DON'T work. Only mild spots respond to topical products, serious acne needs to be dealt with with medication. My mum spent pounds on Clearasil when I was young and it never worked, only cleared up when I was put on a course of tetracycline.
    So, if your sons or daughters are having problems with acne, see a doctor and don't waste your money on sets like this.
