Just like our lifestyles and daily routines, our bodies have been evolving to adapt to the changed reality. With the sudden and overwhelming amount of change that has become our new way of life in 2020, new words like “trying times” or “WFH” have been inserting themselves into our vocabulary and, maksne is one of them.


Maskne is a term referring to acne and skin irritation caused by wearing a mask for hours on end. But do not dismiss it as yet another skincare buzzword; the American Academy of Dermatology reported that at least 83 percent of healthcare workers in Hubei, China, suffered skin problems on the face.


While not wearing a mask might not be an option, there are still many other effective ways to get rid of your maskne. Here are four skincare tips to help clear your skin and restore its healthy glow.

Cleanse your face

Removing any dirt, oil or bacteria that could have accumulated during the day is important. The Revitalift Cleanser is a foaming cleanser that gently removes makeup and deeply cleanses away daily buildup of dirt and oil, It’s suitable for all skin types and has the added benefit of Vitamin C, which smooths and soothes the skin.
