COVID-19 continues to wreak havoc. In order to avoid infection, everyone will wear a mask to “keep safe”. Some people are in public places for a long time, and they can’t take off their masks, which may lead to skin problems such as acne, acne and red spots on their faces. What if this situation is avoided? Xiaobian of Life Coup Network will share the coup today.
As we all know, the protection of masks is inversely proportional to their breathability. For example, N95 masks have good protection but not good breathability, but we usually wear them in public places. Breathable masks cover the nose and mouth for a long time, which will make the hot air exhaled in the mouth unable to be discharged smoothly. The inside of the mask is hot and wet, which is easy to breed bacteria. When the bacteria destroy the sebum membrane, skin inflammation will occur. In addition, the skin will increase endocrine and oil when the temperature rises, and at the same time, it will dilate blood vessels. If the facial oil secretion is excessive, it will cause acne, acne and red spots due to pore blockage.
How to solve this problem? Xiaobian recommends using a mask pad. Prepare several medical mask pads in it every day, and take them out every 2-3 hours to change them, so as to keep the skin dry without affecting the protective performance of the mask. If the mask pad is too expensive, you can also buy some medical gauze pad inside, which is cheap and sufficient, so it won’t hurt to replace it in time!
In addition, in order to reduce the chance of acne, it is recommended not to wear a mask for more than 4 hours or more, but to take off the mask in a well-ventilated and low-density place to let the facial skin breathe.
When you get home from work, you should also do a good job of skin care in time, such as washing your face with mild cleansing products, and then applying appropriate oil control and moisturizing skin care products after cleansing.
