Maskne, what is it and how can I treat it?

Have you ever heard about the word "maskne"? It is the combination of two terms, mask and acne, and it is used to describe about the problems that can appear on the skin after regular mask use. And how can we see if we suffer from it? Well, your skin is more sensitive than usual, you tend to have more acne breakouts than before, and your skin is constantly irritated. 

The masks have become a complement to our life, with the pandemic we have had to introduce it completely in our day to day and wear it for many hours whether you go shopping, as if you go to work etc.

The mask is a synthetic element that is in contact with our skin many hours of the day, and that makes that in those areas that the mask rubs with our skin redness, acne, dryness and dermatitis may appear.

And let's not even talk about wearing a mask in the middle of summer, the area covered by the mask becomes much more sensitive and this can cause the problems mentioned above to worsen.

¿So what can we about it?

If you have dry skin, we recommend that you moisturize your skin to the max with Ibiza Clay Cream. This way you can achieve a much more luminous and hydrated face.

If your skin is oily and tends to have acne, you will have to comply with your routine every day, to avoid the appearance of pimples and excess oil on your skin. To do this, we recommend that you use micellar water to cleanse your face very well.

If you have sensitive skin, it is likely to react more easily to external aggression and especially when we wear a mask and temperatures rise, the symptoms of sensitive skin are considerably aggravated. That is why in Barros de Ibiza we recommend you to use the Sensitive Skin Pack where the cream will help you to take care and protect your skin.

In Barros de Ibiza we recommend THE IBIZA ESSENCE, the ideal pack to combat or avoid the Maskne, as it contains the Ibiza Clay Cream, the Ibiza Clay Mask and the Micellar Water, so you can take care of your skin and face this new acne.
