How to Prevent Acne Caused by Wearing Facial Masks

With masks being mandatory in a lot of states, have you noticed that wearing a facial mask makes your cheeks and chin area irritated, clogged, and causing acne breakouts?

It has been happening to me, especially with my oldest daughter Lauren. For several years now, we have been working on clearing her skin from blemishes and acne scars with success, but the masks have reverted her progress.


And with the heat, masks make our skin unable to breathe, trapping impurities, creating our skin to throw off its PH balance, causing clogged pores and inflammation. Skin needs exposure to fresh oxygen to live so it can provide the necessary nutrients.


Having major breakouts and developing dark marks has killed Lauren's self-confidence. It has gotten to the point that she begs me to let her wear makeup to camouflage the bumps and scars.


I told her that makeup would only make it worst. Imagine, wearing makeup, plus a facial mask on top of that, skin chaos! It's like a battle that she'll guarantee to lose. And she'll have to deal with acne scarring for a long time.


We have to hit the problem head-on by using an anti-acne line that will soothe and naturally help clear her skin, as well as mine.

DERMA-E has a new Anti-Blemish Clarifying Bi-Phase Toner and Anti Acne Box Set that's complete with the solutions people need for clear, healthy skin. Check out this new skincare product line:

Anti-Blemish Clarifying Bi-Phase Toner- This toner helps clarify while balancing the skin's natural moisture levels after cleansing. It also soothes and removes excess oils without drying skin.

Anti-Acne Set- Three products in the set help the skin get control, balance, and clarity.

• Acne Deep Pore Cleansing Wash- Gently cleans skin to remove oil and debris to help unclog pores, promote clear skin, and prevent breakouts.

• Acne Blemish Control Treatment Serum- Helps to diminish acne-causing bacteria that leads to blackheads, blemishes, and breakouts.

• Acne Rebalancing Cream- Promotes gentle exfoliation to keep pores from becoming clogged.

I love the tingling sensation of all the products, awaking my senses, putting me in a calming mood, and giving my skin a beautiful glow. It's like my skin is revived, nourished, with a clearer complexion. Not to mention, bringing me into a joyful spirit. I noticed a massive difference with my skin in a matter of days.


For Lauren, due to her acne's severity, it took a week or two for her skin to start clearing up. So, she is happy with the results and will continue using the DERMA-E Anti-Acne line as her daily skincare routine.

If wearing facial masks is making your skin break out, check out DERMA-E's Anti-Acne line to help bring back your skin's natural moisture balance.


And remember, your skin needs fresh air. If you're not around people, driving your car, taking a walk, etc., remove your mask and give it a chance to breathe naturally, and drink plenty of water to keep hydrated. Try not to stress too, which also makes your skin break out as well.


I'm a huge DERMA-E fan, make sure to check out their other skincare lineup.
