The newest wave of face masks are not only protective but skin-soothing, as seen in products like the Aquavit SKINWORKOUT InnerB System Inner Mask for Blemish Control. Using its hydrogel technology, Aquavit created a PPE-ready inner mask that contains salicylic acid and natural ingredients that are beneficial for their soothing and hydrating properties. The two-piece mask has a transparent design and it stays on by sticking to the skin comfortably so that long-lasting comfort can be felt and the wearer can still speak with ease.
Wearing a face mask creates a microenvironment of warm moisture and irritation and many people are being bothered by maskne as a result. As such, face masks are being retooled with designs that consider skincare or they are being paired with supportive companion products.
