Posted on November 2, 2020
Everyone appreciates when you do your part by wearing a face mask when you go out in public. Whether you’re wearing your face mask for a quick run into the gas station or keeping it on for an eight-hour work shift, we’re all struggling with a similar problem: Maskne. We're here to help with 3 ways to help with maskne!
3 Ways to Help with Maskne
1. If you haven’t already, buy a reusable mask
Reusable masks are not only helping out the environment by limiting the number of face masks thrown in the landfill, they’re also washable! Try to find a pack so that you have a few masks to alternate throughout the week, and wash them consistently and keep them as clean as possible while in use. If you use the same mask for too long, you are allowing germs and dirt to build up inside the mask, which could be a factor in causing your breakouts.
If you don’t have a reusable mask, make sure you are switching out your surgical masks often!
2. Keep your skin clean and healthy
Cleansing and exfoliating are so important for keeping your skin clean and preventing your pores from getting clogged. Exfoliate once a week and pay special care to the areas your face mask covers, and make sure you’re cleansing twice a day!
3. Treat your blemishes under your mask
Take advantage of wearing a face-covering in public and multi-task! Treat your blemishes with acne products while you’re on the go. People will be none the wiser and you’ll be able to check one more thing off your list of to-dos and stressors. Need some ideas on how to treat them? Try these!
