Protection Against Face-Mask Skin Problems

Masks have become a necessity in our everyday life. However, wearing a mask for long hours may leave marks on your face, skin rash and itchiness. The reason behind that is that wearing a mask increases the temperature and humidity when breathing, which in turn causes the spread of bacteria that cause skin problems and irritation.

How can a face mask affect your skin?

Wearing a face mask for long periods of time results in several skin problems including:

Masks prevent airflow from touching one’s face when breathing. Humidity accumulates on skin, creating a favorable environment for many skin problems like skin inflammation and acne.
Wearing masks for long periods of time causes skin itchiness and peeling, which leaves the skin dry and prone to many problems.
Face masks can also cause skin irritation leading to inflammation.

How to prevent face-mask skin problems?

You can protect your skin from problems caused by wearing a face mask for long hours by cleaning, exfoliating and moisturizing the skin, in three steps.
