How Can We Prevent Breakouts?

Daily Tips

 

  • Wash your mask daily. Our bodies shed thousands of dead skin cells everyday, so your mask will accumulate more than enough pore-clogging debris after one day of use. Of course, cleansing your face twice a day is essential for all skin types.
  • Exfoliate, exfoliate, exfoliate. You will need to exfoliate about twice as often as you were prior to wearing a mask. Opt for chemical exfoliants such as glycolic or lactic acid. 
  • Keep skin moisturized.
  • Avoid wearing makeup under the mask area
  • Make sure your products are fragrance free and non comedogenic.
  • During your “mask-free” time cleanse your face as soon as possible.

Acne Clearing Ingredients

  • RETINOL-If you are not using retinol nightly now is the time to start. It is always recommended for anti-aging and due to its ability to increase cellular turnover pores remain less clogged and blocked reducing acne breakouts.
  • GLYCOLIC ACID - great exfoliater
  • CLAY-Add a clay mask 2-4 times a week.
  • BENZOYL PEROXIDE is amazing at quickly reducing inflammatory acne and reducing blackheads and white heads. Try a cleanser with Benzoyl Peroxide or for more stubborn acne a benzoyl peroxide leave on of 5% or 10%.
