Skin irritation from wearing masks can have become a concern for many people. The good news is the routine to protect the face is very, very simple.
A 30-second easy trick: Wash your face, straight away as soon as you get home! Of course, after you first wash your hands.
Doctors say that face masks create friction and moisture, which leads to the appearance of acne, but to prevent this washing and hydrating the skin is very important. However, care must be taken because frequent washing and hydration of the face can be just as harmful as avoiding this process.
The key is to use a mild soap-free lather that preserves the skin barrier but helps cleanse the sweat mixture or other impurities that the mask brings.
Choose something light and moisturizing and if the option of washing your face directly after removing the mask is not a solution, you can use "wet face papers with salicylic acid", suggests dermatologist Mona Gohara.
