My kids plays soccer, basketball, baseball, hockey, lacrosse and somehow they still have the energy to run around the neighborhood after dinner. By the time they collapse on the couch, the last thing they want to do is a 5-minute skincare routine. That's where Face Pads come in — 30 seconds, no mess, no mirror, no excuses.

After five years of watching my own teen ignore every product I bought him, I finally created something teens will actually use. Not because we all nag them. Because it's easy. Because it works. Because they can do it in the car on the way to practice if they have to.

Face Pads are pre-soaked with pH-balanced toner that clean, clarify, and balance skin in one swipe. Think of them as a face wash, toner, and light moisturizer — all in a single pad you throw away after use.

Our The Face Pads ($22) come with 40 biodegradable pads in a flip-top container. Each pad is infused with a proprietary formula that includes prebiotics, willowherb, niacinamide, and succinic acid — ingredients that fight oil and bacteria without drying skin out. The Face Pads are loved and approved by many dermatologists. 

The bonus is that the pads are biodegradable. We believe in "clean teens, clean planet" 

Active teens have specific skincare challenges. Sweat, dirt, sunscreen, and the general grime of being a kid who actually goes outside. Here's why Face Pads tackle all of it:

Post-game, post-practice, post-camp — sometimes there's no shower available. Face Pads work anywhere. Swipe, toss, done. My kid keeps a container in their gym bag nightstand and another in the car.

Teens don't want to stand in front of a mirror doing a routine. With Face Pads, they don't have to. Swipe over face, neck, behind the ears (where sweat really collects), and they're good.

The biggest battle with teen skincare isn't finding the right product,  it's getting them to use it. Face Pads remove every barrier: no pumping, no lathering, no rinsing, no drying. Just swipe and go. Even the laziest teen can manage 30 seconds.

These aren't baby wipes. JB SKRUB Face Pads are pH-balanced (5.5-6.5) to match teen skin, infused with prebiotics to keep the skin microbiome healthy, and contain succinic acid — a gentler alternative to salicylic acid that still fights breakouts.

But what really sets them apart is the ingredient mix. We didn't just throw in one active ingredient and call it a day. We built a formula that works together:

Soothes irritated skin with natural antioxidant and antibacterial properties. Perfect for post-sports redness.

Balances oil production while keeping skin hydrated. Not drying, not greasy — just balanced.

Regulates sebum and clears blemishes without the harshness of salicylic acid. Antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory.

Feed the good bacteria on your skin so the bad bacteria can't take over. Healthy microbiome = fewer breakouts.

Translation: they clean without stripping, fight oil without over-drying, and help prevent the breakouts that come with active, sweaty skin. The ingredients work together, not against each other.

Face Pads aren't a replacement for washing your face. But they're the perfect shortcut for specific situations:

• Post-sports: When there's no time or place to wash properly
• Morning rush: When they hit snooze three times and have 5 minutes to get out the door
• Camp: When shared bathrooms are gross and shower time is limited
• Travel: Planes, trains, sleepovers — anywhere a full routine isn't practical
• Lazy days: Let's be honest, some days they just won't do the full routine

It really is this simple:

1. Flip the lid. Grab one pad. (Resist the urge to grab three — one is enough.)

2. Swipe your face. Forehead, nose, cheeks, chin, neck. Don't forget behind the ears — that's where sweat and bacteria love to hide.

3. Toss the pad. It's biodegradable, so it won't sit in a landfill forever.

4. Chill. Skin is clean, balanced, and ready for moisturizer if you want. Or just go to bed. We don't judge.

Face Pads are a shortcut, not a replacement. Here's how we think about it in our house:

• Face Wash: Morning and night, when there's time and a sink
• Face Pads: Mid-day, post-sports, travel, lazy days, or anytime they need a quick clean

Together, they cover every situation. Face Wash for the deep clean, Face Pads for the quick clean.

40 biodegradable pads, pH-balanced, prebiotic-infused. The 30-second skincare shortcut that even lazy teens will actually use.

We get these questions a lot:

"Are they just baby wipes?" No. Baby wipes are designed for diaper changes, not faces. Face Pads are pH-balanced for teen skin, infused with skincare ingredients, and designed to clean without stripping.

"Will they dry out my kid's skin?" Not if you use them as directed. The niacinamide and prebiotics help maintain the skin barrier. If your teen has very dry skin, follow with The Face Lotion ($20).

"Can they use them every day?" Yes. They're gentle enough for daily use. My kid uses them after every soccer practice — that's 4-5 times a week — with no issues.

"Are they really biodegradable?" Yes. The pads break down naturally. The container is recyclable. We're not perfect, but we're trying.

Active teens need skincare that fits their life, not the other way around. Face Pads are the 30-second shortcut that actually works. No mess, no mirror, no hassle — just clean, balanced skin.

And the best part? They'll actually use them. Because even lazy teens can manage a swipe and a toss.

JBSKRUB: Here to help your kids not stink. Tough on dirt, gentle on skin. Built for dudes who like to get dirty.

Not completely. Face Pads are perfect for quick cleans, post-sports, travel, and lazy days. But for a full routine, use The Face Wash ($20) morning and night. Think of Face Pads as your backup plan, not your main plan.

Yes. They're pH-balanced (5.5-6.5), fragrance-free, and made with gentle ingredients like willowherb and niacinamide. If your teen has very sensitive skin, start with once a day and see how they respond.

Please remember- Avoid Eye Area

One. Seriously, one pad is enough for the whole face and neck. Using more is just wasting product. If the pad comes back dirty, that's a good sign — it means it's working.

Absolutely. JB SKRUB products are gender-neutral — designed for all teens, regardless of gender. The formulas work for all skin types and concerns. Identity and skin concerns, not gender.
