How to ďŹ ght it? Here are a couple of things to keep in mind: Use formulas that include actives, which help reduce inammation, redness, and fortify, nourish and hydrate skin. Use a clean and softer mask fabric like a silk blend or cotton to reduce friction, so you can easily switch them out and wash them in-between uses.
Wash your face with a gentle cleanser before, and, after applying a mask in order to calm skin and prevent bacteria under the mask. Moisturize your skin. Keeping your skin well hydrated can help skin become less vulnerable to breakouts. Limit as much as possible the use of makeup bases or those formulas that contain occlusive oils.

The "maskne" occurs often among physicians. In fact, a research letter published in March this year by the Journal of the American Academy medical journal noted that at least 83% of healthcare workers in Hubei, China, have dermatological problems on the face resulting from the use of masks.

There will be a demand in “maskne”-related products, with cosmetic companies producing new and improved innovations. I have already noticed an increase in antibacterial cosmetics and I think this will expand in products not only for teens, but adults as well. Although facial makeup has dropped in demand due to COVID-19, I’m sure consumers will be open to using cosmetics with antibacterial properties.
