Luckily, there are plenty of natural ways to deal with them that you can make at home!\n<h4>What Causes &ldquo;Maskne&rdquo;?\n</h4><p>Numerous factors may lead to the development of &ldquo;maskne&rdquo;. The friction from wearing a face mask for extended time periods is the most obvious, but other risk factors for &ldquo;maskne&rdquo; include:\n</p><p><img fetchpriority='\"high\"' decoding='\"async\"' class='\"size-large' wp-image-3648 aligncenter src="%5C%22http:%5C/%5C/alternatech.net%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2021%5C/05%5C/1maskne-1024x684.jpg%5C%22" alt='\"\"' width='\"1024\"' height='\"684\"' srcset='\"https:\/\/justmetalking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/1maskne-1024x684.jpg' https: sizes='\"(max-width:'>\n</p><ul>\n<li><strong>Makeup: Wearing makeup under your face mask increases the chances of clogged pores and acne mechanica breakouts.\n<li><strong>Humidity: The heat and humidity from breathing into a mask are challenging enough on their own, but with the increased temperature and moisture in the air during the summer months, people are much more likely to experience breakouts too. In addition to causing breakouts, heat and humidity make the symptoms more severe, leading to deeper, painful types of pimples, including nodules, papules, pustules, and cysts.\n<li><strong>Stress: Stress causes an increase in the production of cortisol and other hormones. This spike in hormone production taxes the immune system, and when our immune system is tired, the body starts rerouting its resources away from the skin, increasing skin health symptoms and taking longer for issues to be resolved.\n<li><strong>Sunscreen: You still need to apply sunscreen every day, especially if you\u2019re going to be outside for long hours, but this added layer of protection is also an extra product on your already irritated skin, which can contribute to clogged pores. Choosing a lightweight sunscreen or a facial moisturizer with built-in sunblock can help to minimize the number of potentially pore-clogging products beneath your mask.\n\n<h4>Natural &amp; Safety Methods To Combat &ldquo;Maskne That You Should Try\n<h5>1.
