This Covid 19/Rona experience is ruining my skin!

Everyday more and more people are wearing masks to help protect themselves and the people they love.We are wearing them at grocery stores, at work, or even clinics, schools and hospitals. Here's what you need to know about wearing masks and gloves, how they can affect your skin, and tips for protecting your skin.

DRY ITCH WITHOUT RASH, PEELING SKIN.

If you are experiencing dry or peeling skin after wearing a mask for an extended period, wash your face gentle and natural cleanser. Pat dry gently leaving some moisture on the skin, then apply a heavy moisturizing cream/ body butter to re-hydrate your skin.

ACNE

If you are prone to acne, wearing a mask may cause a breakout. The acne is likely occurring as a result of the blockage or closing of the hair follicles (pilosebaceous duct) treating acne with medications containing benzolyl peroxide and retinoids can take months to take effect and these treatments under a mask can become more irritating then they arw helpful.

Hot and humid temperatures can also flare red pimples and blood vessels on your cheeks and nose known as rosacea. A few preventative measures to take include avoiding caffeine, alcohol, sunlight, and as much as possible cooling your face throughout the day when you're able to safely do so.

Avoid harsh scrubs or irritating agents. Avoid cleanser contaiing salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide. Use a gentle non-comedogenic face cleanser twice daily. After using the cleanser, apply a thin layer of a ALL NATURAL MOISTURIZER.

RECOMMEND CLEANSERS: Raw Black African Soap, (lather on a face towel then apply the face towel to the skin) you can also purchasing other helpful all natural soaps such as Aloe Vera soap, Oatmeal Soap, just to name a few, that will give you lasting change!
