Fighting Back Against the Mask-Related Acne

Whether you’re someone who is still fastidiously wearing masks when out and about or you’ve given up now that restrictions have been relaxed, there are still a lot of people battling the effects that masks had on their skin. Mask-related acne became such an issue during lockdown that it was given its own portmanteau – mas-cne! Some postulated that the spots were caused by re-wearing cloth masks without washing them between uses, while others felt it was simply an effect of your skin being less able to breathe under a mask. Either way, dealing with mas-cne requires a certain set of products – here are five of the best:

Dermalogica Clearing Skin Wash

One of the most effective ways to deal with acne is by using a cleanser with targeted ingredients, like this one from Dermalogica. It contains natural extracts of balm mint, eucalyptus and tea tree help eliminate breakout-causing bacteria and congestion as menthol and camphor help cool inflammation. It sloughs away excess oils and dead skin cells which block pores and contribute to acne and helps to prevent future breakouts. 

Murad Outsmart Blemish Clarifying Treatment

This gel serum from Murad contains a Penta-Acid Technology comprised of salicylic, lysophosphatidic, hydroxydecanoic, sebacic and glycolic acids which combine to clear skin of blemish-causing bacteria, oiliness and blackheads while minimising dryness and irritation. It can be applied directly to blemishes and is clinically proven to visibly reduce blemishes within 7 days. 

Elemis S.O.S. Emergency Cream

This intensive, healing moisturiser from Elemis is designed to give sensitised, weathered skin a deep infusion of moisture and contains myrrh essential oil, which has regenerating, anti-inflammatory and anti-itching properties, making it invaluable in products which help relieve acne. Added lavender oil helps to enhance healing and can also help to reduce the chance of scarring. 

Medik8 Blemish SOS

This rapid action treatment gel from Murad is designed to be applied directly to blemishes and remains invisible once applied, unlike some spot treatments which leave an unsightly film. It’s enriched with azelaic acid to fight blemish-causing bacteria and dioic acid to help control oil production within the skin and can be used under make up or on its own for fast-acting, spot-busting powers. 

Jan Marini Bioglycolic Bioclear Lotion

Bioglycolic Bioclear Lotion is a multi-purpose product from Jan Marini which contains glycolic, salicylic and azelaic acid and is designed to treat not just acne, but also pigmentation, rosacea and fine lines and wrinkles. As well as utilising the three acids which are amazing for the skin, the lotion is packed with antioxidants and natural plant extracts which repair and refine the complexion for softer, smoother, more luminous and hydrated looking skin.

Did you know that pumpkins are packed with natural enzymes and acids which increase cell turnover so that skin is bright and smooth? Well they do, and the good news doesn’t stop there. This Halloween staple also contains antioxidant vitamin A and C which help soften and soothe skin and get ageing under control.

With all the said, let’s look at some of the products we sell on the site and see which ones you could use to get great skin before 31 October.

We absolutely adore the Elemis Superfood Facial Wash and for good reason! This gel cleanser is full of the nutrient-dense super greens you’d expect to find in a smoothie, but we don’t suggest drinking it! From the very first time you use this product, you are left with radiant skin and an outdoor-fresh glow that will look as if you’ve been for a brisk walk by the sea. Avocado, broccoli and pumpkin seed oil might usually be found in a hipster salad, but in this case, they have been combined with a natural pre-biotic to balance the skin’s microbiome and with wheatgrass, nettle and kale too, your complexion will look luminous and bright.

You might not be thinking about the sun when the witching hour approaches, but the Dermalogica Pure Light SPF 50 treats hyperpigmentation and keeps you safe from the UV light that can strike at any time of the year. It’s the pumpkin fruit ferment in this cream, that helps exfoliate away dead cells and eliminate dark spots cause by the sun. Red algae, seaweed and safflower seeds have all been added to the mix to create a product at we think you will love. Apply to cleansed and toned skin before you go outside and this will work well all year round and keep those Halloween vampires away.

For a vegan option, why not give the Elemis Superfood AHA Glow Booster a go? This plant-based concentrate formula is ideal if you want to have healthy, glowing skin all year round but won’t have you looking as orange as a pumpkin – do not worry. This is ideal for anyone whose skin is a little tired and needs a helping hand to look brighter and happier again. Pumpkin and cherry extracts, which are both rich in AHAs and enzymes, have been mixed with rice water and green tea seed oil and once you have given the bottle a shake, you are ready to smooth away the dullness and let the light in.

If you are looking for real results from your beauty products, look no further than the Dermalogica Rapid Reveal Peel. This maximum strength exfoliant contains acids and fermented plant enzymes to increase skin renewal and reveal new, firmer skin with reduced fine lines and wrinkles. Pumpkin together with rice bran, resurface and even out skin tone, while Australian caviar lime brightens skin so you are left with a more radiant, but still natural, complexion. With each packet containing 10 applications you have the right amount for perfect results each time you use this peel.

If you would like more details, why not get in touch and see what pumpkin potions and lotions you can use to make your skin come to life this Halloween.

Dermalogica Skin Smoothing Cream

At Pure Beauty we are massive Aloe Vera fans.

As well as being an excellent anti-inflammatory and fabulous moisturiser, it is also said to contain antioxidants that can help repair damaged skin and prevent free radicals from doing their undesirable work. Used to relieve sunburn, acne, irritated, and dry skin, some people also believe it helps to reduce the appearance of stretch marks, fine lines and wrinkles.

We did a little bit of a search of our products and today we are sharing the Aloe love with you.

Dermalogica Skin Smoothing Cream is great if you want to maintain your skin’s moisture balance while improving texture and tone. Deep-moisturising Lecithin nourishes your skin and extracts of Mallow, Cucumber and Arnica soothe and hydrate it so suppleness is restored. Aloe has been added to the mix to moisture your skin and help prevent the appearance of dehydration lines and promote healing – what’s not to like?

The Jan Marini Transformation Face Cream helps to rebuild and repair damaged cells so that your skin looks, and feels, youthful. Anti-Aging Peptides, Hyaluronic Acid, Antioxidants and Aloe Vera come together in this luxury product and from the very first time you use it, your skin will appear smoother and have a gorgeous silky softness we think you will love.

Aloe can be great to boost tired, dull skin and this is why it has been added to the Dermalogica Skin Renewal Booster. A blend of hydroxy acids and natural humectants have been blended to help with cell renewal and promote healthier-looking skin. Suitable for drier or prematurely-ageing skin, the booster exfoliates away dead skin cells and together Aloe, Chamomile and Cornflower hydrate the skin while Vitamins A and C smooth skin, so it feels happy once again.

Shaving is a part of everyday grooming but it can cause skin irritation, so to prevent this, we suggest using the Elemis Skin Soothe Shave Gel. This easy to use, effective gel has an active base of Aloe Vera and Witch Hazel, that have been scientifically blended with anti-inflammatory extracts of Arnica and Chamomile and cooling Menthol. Together this offers the perfect shaving solution for even the most sensitive skins, and with Marine Extracts and Jojoba Oil added for comfort, this is a bathroom cabinet must have.

We know some people think toners dry the skin out, but this could not be further from the truth with the Dermalogica UltraCalming Mist.This cool, soothing toner offers thirsty, dry skin hydration as well as relieving inflammation and discomfort. Aloe has been added as a skin soothing agent and this works beautifully well with the antiseptic and disinfectant qualities of Lavender to ensure skin is soft and supple and ready for your day or night cream. It is also brilliant to keep skin hydrated on the beach and during long flights when moisture is lost and dehydration sets in.

If your body feels like it needs a little extra love, why not take the Jan Marini Bioglycolic Resurfacing Body Scrub into the shower with you? Highly concentrated glycolic acid with exfoliating particles have been expertly blended with Aloe, Chamomile and Rosemary Extracts that together leave you with glowing skin that is silky smooth to the touch. That rough skin and those troublesome areas on the back of your arms, knees and legs will be a thing of the past. While you will see immediate benefits from this beautifully scented product, there will be progressive improvement over time that we think you will love.

If you would like more details about aloe,or are interested in trying samples to see if they work for you, get in touch and we would love to help you get your best skin ever.
