The Best Ways To Take Care Of 'Maskne’

Face masks have become common accessories over the past few years. For people who go out often, all the more so, with masks covering their faces for hours on end. While not always the direct cause, the fabric tends to trap heat and dirt leading to acne breakouts during or after taking them off. 

This situation has come to be known as "Maskne" (mask-related acne). Luckily, the treatment for Maskne is just the same as when treating regular acne. The same goes for the ways to minimize and prevent it. Here are some simple routine tips that can help manage the condition

Choosing comfortable face masks

Using a face mask with breathable fabric might help to maintain comfort while keeping you safe. Depending on the type, KN95 masks can be rigid and avoid the constant friction that may break away the skin's protective layer when worn. 

Using cleansing balms or gels

General cleansing after a sweaty trip or a long day helps to thoroughly remove excess dirt trapped in pores. Red Ginseng Peel Off Pack makes the skin texture clean and moist while removing the dead skin cells on the face. Removing it gently after applying is advised to avoid irritation.

Regular washing 

The routine aspect of skincare doesn't have to be limited to evening regimens. Regular washing of your face at a sanitary location can help combat dryness and keep skin cool for a while until you get home.
