Himalaya Wellness has successfully concluded the second edition of its innovative ‘My First Pimple’ campaign, an initiative designed to educate and empower young girls about skincare during adolescence.
Spanning across nine cities in West Bengal, Bihar, and Uttar Pradesh, the program reached thousands of teenagers, helping them navigate the changes brought on by puberty with confidence and knowledge.
The campaign aimed to reassure teenagers that pimples are a natural part of growing up, primarily triggered by hormonal changes during puberty. Through interactive and engaging sessions, it highlighted how increased oil production affects the skin and offered practical tips to minimize its impact on self-esteem.
By addressing common misconceptions and providing actionable advice, the initiative encouraged participants to embrace these changes with a positive mindset.
The program covered over 125 schools, where interactive workshops were conducted by local skincare influencers. These sessions focused on:
- Explaining the hormonal changes that lead to pimples.
- Educating participants about the science of skincare and how to maintain healthy skin.
- Encouraging practical and natural skincare habits rooted in Ayurveda.
To make the experience more engaging, the campaign incorporated quizzes, games, and hands-on demonstrations, ensuring students could learn while having fun.
Ragini Hariharan, Marketing Director – Beauty & Personal Care at Himalaya Wellness, emphasized the campaign’s goal: “We’re proud to have completed the second edition of the ‘My First Pimple’ campaign. This initiative reflects our commitment to empowering young individuals by equipping them with the knowledge they need for a healthy skincare journey. Pimples are a universal experience, and we want to ensure they don’t affect anyone’s confidence. By partnering with local voices, we’ve created a space where young girls can learn, grow, and embrace their uniqueness.”
