Here are my top 10 Maskne Tips for preventing maskne and skin irritations:
Tip 1:
Always wear a clean mask. Wash in fragrance free laundry detergent to prevent contact irritation from fragrance. This keep the dirt, germs and bacteria away from your skin.

Wear a proper fitting mask. A mask that doesn’t fit correctly will increase the frictional irritation and stress on the skin.
