Skin-Friendly Face Masks

Invented by Dermatologists, Flora Masks are Made with Mulberry Silk

— March 1, 2021 — Fashion
When only designed for protection, the average face mask can cause irritation and maskne, and Flora Masks is introducing "the world's first skin-friendly face mask" on Kickstarter. The handmade face masks created by dermatologists are made with hypoallergenic silk to reduce irritation and they include a raised foam structure to boost ventilation and limit humidity. The adjustable face masks boast an ergonomic design that actually reduces contact with the skin by more than 50%, helping to create an experience that's more comfortable and less likely to lead to undesirable skincare effects.

Alongside its skin-friendly face masks, the brand is introducing Maskcare, a system of supplementary products to improve skin health, mental health and "elevate global skin standards for our new age." There's a pre-mask cleanser, a skin-friendly antibacterial spray and solutions for tackling bad breath.
