Whether you are a daily mask-wearer like our front-line workers (thank you!) or you’re putting it on and off as you go about your day…you may be noticing the skin where your mask covers and touches is breaking out. The hot new term for this is…Maskne (I talked all about it earlier this week when I dished on the best Maskne Preventative skincare treatments).
Today I am going to tell you about the best Maskne topical treatments to use when your skin is rebelling – let’s zap that Maskne outta town.
Researching how to stop the duration of these little bastards living their best life on your face; I found and tested the below products for the last four months for you and ding ding, we have some winners, friends.
First up – Face stickers! Invisible face stickers!
Honestly the most brilliant topical skincare treatment innovation I have seen in years. I am obsessed and in love.
The HERO Cosmetics Mighty Patch Duo.
Have a little bugger of a whitehead pop up? Just stick one of these nearly invisible Mighty Patches directly onto the blemish and live your life while the medical-grade hydrocolloid simply sucks all the nasty pus out in a completely unnoticeable way. I love these as they are subtle; you can wear them during the day (they really stick well!) or night and they stop me from picking at my face. They are amazing and I highly recommend them for maskne breakouts.
Lierac sebologie localized concentrate
This bi-phase complex works to unclog pores while deeply purifying the skin. Do not shake or mix the bottle, simply dip a Q-tip into the liquid, down through the powder at the bottom – pulling up and then dabbing directly onto the zit in question. Leaving this on overnight – you will wake up with dramatically reduced inflammation. It’s really really good.
La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo | Global action acne treatment
So gentle, so effective. I am a big fan of the La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo cream.
This formula helps clear up acne pimples while preventing new ones from forming. This hydrating lotion purifies clogged pores and mattifies oily areas. You apply this cream directly onto the affected areas of the skin, starting slowly with one application per day – working your way up to three times per day where needed. I use this directly on my pimples and find by the end of the day they are either gone, or are the next morning.
