Winner:GOLD Best Tween / Teen Toiletries Collection
Who:indu
What:indu teen beauty
Why:
There was a real buzz surrounding this exciting new skincare brand that has been
specifically developed to care for teenage skin. Encompassing both skincare and make-up, our judges felt that indu had successfully tapped into the wants and needs of teenagers, creating a range that felt high-spec and sophisticated without being intimidating. Judging the brand’s skincare, the JDA panel was impressed with the innovative refillable packaging design and thoughtfully formulated products that target the real skin concerns of teens. The textures felt smooth and nurturing, while the clear choice between Universal products for all skin types and the more targeted Clarifying range for oily and blemish prone skin, made this range feel easy to navigate for any teen embarking on a skincare routine for the first time.
I was immediately drawn to this packaging. The colours - the typography. It’s very sophisticated and will look great on the bathroom shelf. I love the sustainable angle - making refills easy to purchase with packaging for the makeup refills made from recycled paper. I love that this brand was inspired by teen daughters and the lack of teen-appropriate choices in
beauty. They co-founded the brand with the aim of disrupting the beauty market.
Beautiful design and well thought out specifically for teenage skin. Love the colorless line - smart way to bring skincare to the entire market.
Fun and innovative. Doesn’t feel like boring chore skincare. A great broad range of skincare
for teen needs and makeup that won’t make skin break out.
A much needed addition to the beauty market. Tweens/teens need cool and creative options
for beauty and skincare that is age appropriate for their skin.
Indu has tapped into the burgeoning tween and teen category with something that feels really fresh. Some of the products are quite targeted, but they’re all nourishing - and the packaging is fun and sustainable. It’s an extensive enough range to really give young people ownership over their self-care routine.Â
I love the fact that a teenage panel of consultants is guiding the development of this range. You can see that their voices have been powerful.
The perfect antidote to harsh chemicals and overpriced products that teens are often drawn to. Impeccable design and lovely textures that feel really nurturing.

Who:Spots & Stripes
What:Spots & Stripes Tween/Teen Skincare
Why:
The earth-friendly Spots & Stripes collection, formulated for the unique needs of tween and teen skin was a big hit with our judges. The panel was drawn in by the bold, brightly coloured packaging that has a lovely fresh feel and was impressed to learn that every product is made from natural, ethically sourced ingredients that are gentle on young skin. Our judges felt this was a super intuitive and nurturing brand that really worked hard to give kids confidence when they need it most, providing a gorgeous smelling, yet practical range of basics like deodorant, anti-blemish body wash, sunscreen and even arnica for bumps bruises and cramps.
Toiletries for the most discerning teenagers! When a one-size-fits-all moisturiser won’t do, Spots & Stripes come through with a ‘featherlight’ one. There is also an ‘Anti-Blemish’ body wash and ‘High Shine’ shampoo. Â
I like how joyful the packaging is - feels important to look upbeat while tackling complicated teen skin issues!
A really fun, useful brand that teens will be happy to see by their sink. From the all-natural deodorant to the anti-blemish body wash, they’ve covered all bases for daily teen concerns.
Excellent design - so fun and inviting!
I love the design / packaging. Easy to spot and recognise amongst other brands. Stands out and looks fun but not too young.
Love the multi-functionality of some of the products. A lip balm/spot buster and bite buster is a winner! This brand has created something any teen or tween would be proud to have in their wash bag or bathroom.
I love the way this range gives kids a sense of independence and confidence during those turbulent tween and teenage years. And everything smells so good! This was the first real 'tween' targeted range my daughter tried - she adores the body spray.

Why:
Our judges felt that this cool-looking set of products achieved the brand’s objective to empower children and teenagers with a simple, easy-to-follow skincare routine. Founded by a family doctor, this brand not only helps to protect and nurture young skin throughout the day but gives teens and tweens a sense of independence and confidence when they need it most. The JDA panel could see that this skincare range would really appeal to kids who love a reassuring, step-by-step approach to self-care and happy, glowing skin.
Very chic packaging - which looks mature and sophisticated. I love the non-spill swivel cap which is so easy to use and stops any accidents in the makeup bag.
Nice packaging, simple offering.
I love the colourful, coconutty Lip Balm Domes - your lips need sun protection, too!Â
I really like the tactile packaging that is perfect for young kids getting to grips with their first skincare routine.
They say you should learn at a young age to protect your skin - this is a scientific approach tailored to young skin to encourage simple healthy habits early.

Why:
Green People, an established leader in organic skincare, is the parent brand of
Organic Young (Oy for short), which offers teens and tweens a great entry point into eco-friendly and organic skincare.
