'Maskne' is such a common term now in 2021, but what really is 'maskne', and how do we treat them?

Maskne is a portmanteau of "mask" and "acne." and the main reason why we experience maskne is due to the current pandemic where most people around the world have to leave their house with a facial mask to protect themselves against the coronavirus.

So how do we really treat them? Read on to find out 5 tips from us!

1. Change your face masks frequently

It is important to keep up with your personal hygiene especially if you have to talk a lot with your face masks on, so change your mask frequently (once every 4 hours), to keep the skin underneath that mask fresh and clean every time, particularly after your meals. 

2. Always double cleanse your skin

To eliminate bacteria and germs building upon our skin due to the moisture from our saliva and sweat, never skip your double cleansing! At the end of the day, always cleanse your skin with a make up remover followed by facial cleanser to ensure that your skin is well cleansed to reduce clog pores forming.

3. Opt for carbon-blast facial treatment with Shugar Spa

4.Choose silk masks instead of normal surgical masks

5.Skip sunscreen when wearing face masks
