While wearing a mask is very important (and mandatory while in public places) during these times, there is unfortunately an unpleasant downside for some.
Frequently wearing a mask can cause “maskne” – acne that is created by trapped oil and dirt in our pores.
Moist masks cause ‘maskne’
Wearing a mask for extended periods traps your breath, sweat and oil beneath the mask, creating a moist environment that can lead to increased skin irritation.
You can reduce your risk of developing this condition by wearing a a good quality mask made from breathable, yet still protective material – masks with 100% cotton linings offer an ideal option.
