Skincare Tips during Lockdown

Masks can cause the face to sweat, leading to acne all over the cheeks, jawline, and chin also called as Maskne. We can’t stop wearing the mask; this is the new normal for now. So here are some ways to keep your skin looking beautiful:

Wear a soft cotton cloth mask or fashion one out of breathable, washable material.
The moment you step home, wash your hands, remove your mask, and wash your face with a cleanser for acne prone skin.
Apply ice to calm redness and reduce inflammation.
Use prescription cream on all affected areas at night.

Repeated hand washing can lead to dryness, irritation & skin cuts causing hand eczema.

This strips the skin of healthy fats and oils known as sebum & dehydrates the skin.
It can worsen skin conditions such as eczema, dermatitis, & psoriasis.
Wash with mild hand wash for 20 seconds using warm and not hot water
Always use a soothing moisturiser after every hand wash: creams are better than lotions
If any pain, redness, flaking, itching or cuts persist, visit your dermatologist

Avoid sugary treats, fried snacks and greasy takeaways as these will cause oily skin and worsen breakouts.

During isolation, people find happiness in these comfort foods which impact your skin negatively.
Also over eating or stress eating can worsen skin conditions.
Drink plenty of water as staying hydrated is important for a glowing and radiant skin.
