What Is Maskne, and How You Can Deal With It?

Maskne, or mask acne, is a term that describes acne typically caused by mask-wearing. If you've noticed an increase in breakouts since wearing a mask, we've got some helpful information on what's causing it, how to fix it, and how to prevent future inflammation.

Why Do Masks Cause Breakouts?

Your Skin Can't Breathe

Dead skin cells no longer have an easy way to escape. Under your mask, they may be pressed together, clogging pores and causing issues with your complexion.

Trapped Humidity

Your mask creates a greenhouse effect, trapping heat and moisture against your face. This stagnant environment is perfect for pimples and breakouts.
