How to Protect Skin When Using a Face Mask

With the onslaught of COVID-19 pandemic, we are left with only a couple of protective measures like face masks and hand sanitizers. Though many of us are still working from home but as we have entered the unlock 4 phase, it is presumed that many will start resuming work from the office as the metro service is going to start functioning from 7th September. 

So, brace yourself to wear face masks while commuting to work every day for long hours. Furthermore, if you don't take the right precautions while wearing or removing the mask, it may damage or irritate your skin. Considering this common problem, we’ve decided to educate you on how to take care of your delicate skin after removing the mask from your face. Let’s get started. 

1) Always Remove Your Mask Using Clean Hands

This may sound obvious, yet many people take off their masks in a haste without washing their hands. Once you reach home, gently wash your hands for around 20 seconds with soap and water. Dry your hands, and then remove your mask. 

2) Detox Your Face With Green Tea Face Wash 

Do you know? Viruses and bacteria breed quickly in a wet and humid environment, and the space between your face mask and mouth is exactly the same. Also, when you wear a mask for long hours, there are chances of you getting maskne (acne caused due to a mask) owing to breath, friction, irritation due to a protective mask. Ergo, we suggest you wash your face with a naked detox green tea face wash. This will not only protect you from infections but also mitigate the chances of breakouts or skin inflammations.

Enriched with green tea and vitamin C, this face wash not only detoxes your face from all the dirt, grime, pollution, and other impurities but also reverses the damaging effects caused by the harmful radiations of the sun.

4) Take A Short Break From Wearing Makeup 

Wearing makeup while putting on a face mask does more harm than good. Remember, makeup won’t only stain your face mask but also block your skin pores. Ergo, it’s wise to take a break from makeup for a while. Instead, we suggest you focus more on your skincare regimen.   

5) Know The Right Time To Dispose The Face Mask

Knowing when to dispose of the mask is as important as wearing it. According to experts, face masks should be disposed of as soon as it is damp. Also, you should not reuse single-use face masks.
