The COVID-19 pandemic and the associated use of PPE to protect one's self, loved ones, and fellow citizens have resulted in a skincare phenomenon that has been identified as maskne, and many products—like this Rapid Response Maskne Spray—have raised up to the challenges to fight it.
Maskne means mask acne and is self-explanatory. Renée Rouleau offers a multi-action soothing treatment that rapidly targets mask-related breakout while keeping the skin's natural moisture barrier intact. The formula of the maskne spray includes "pore-clearing AHA and BHA exfoliants and microbiome-balancing prebiotic sugar" that work to create an uninhabitable ecosystem for "bad bacteria."
If you are unsure whether this maskne spray is for you, Renée Rouleau has a skin type quiz that helps you find products that will suit your needs best.
