Meet Bubble, a new skincare line founded by Shai Eisenman, 29. Bubble was created with Generation Z in mind, with the brand having curated their products with the help of some 5000 teenagers. If that doesn't sound enough, enter Hawaii-based skincare junkie Hyram Yarbo, whose one million followers on Instagram, six million followers on TikTok and nearly four million YouTube subscribers trust his opinions and recommendations regarding skincare. Yarbo is of the opinion that, at present, most products branded for teens in the market are "heavily fragranced, highly irritating, and stripping" which do not help adolescent skin concerns like acne, sensitivity and breakouts. He's happy that Bubble tapped him to help out with the brand. Yarbo also highly appreciates that Bubble is fragrance and essential oil-free, vegan and cruelty-free. One of his contributions is helping Bubble launch Skin School on their official website. Skin School aims to teach teenagers about skincare, product ingredients, skin myths and the like. His favorite from the product line is the Level Up Balancing Moisturizer. Allure recommends the Bounce Back Refreshing Toner, Come Clean Detoxifying Clay Mask and Slam Dunk Hydrating Moisturizer. Since Bubble is targeted for Gen Z, nothing costs above $19.
