10 year old getting acne....treatment advice

My DD has just turned 10 and has started getting acne and blackheads on her forehead. She has said they don't bother her which is great, so I don't want to make too much of a fuss about it and make her conscious of her appearance.

I do however want her to think about getting into a good routine with cleansing her face. Is there any products that you can recommend. I imagine at this age she will still need something quite gentle but I'm not sure what to look for.

I'd just get her to try something gentle but acne is nothing to do with hygiene. Getting into a skincare routine is good but she may need to see a GP.

Was just about to post the same question! Was looking for recommendations for 11 year old boy who is just getting spots.
