The following, said the experts, are some ways on how to prevent mask-caused zits and flare-ups:Use 100% cotton reusable face masksTo prevent maskne, dermatologists recommend using reusable face masks made of 100 percent cotton that should be washed regularly like underwear to avoid bacteria build-up. Simplify your beauty routineAnother way to prevent maskne, said dermatologist Dr. Sarah Barba-Cabodil, is to simplify one’s beauty routine by using less products that could clog pores. “When we minimize the skincare products that we apply, we allow more oxygen to get into our skin and that helps our skin regenerate elastin and collagen. The secret to effortless and effective natural skincare is simple, Barba-Cabodil said: "It starts with breaking bad skincare habits and learning how to simplify our routines by choosing the right product." Taking cue from Barba-Cabodil’s advice, Martina, daughter of Elton and Cathy Salimbangon, the couple behind wellness brand Organique, developed her own skincare line, Nua, which aims to simplify people’s pandemic skincare routine.
