Cómo evitar la irritación en la piel por el uso de la mascarilla

How to avoid skin irritation from mask use

The use of face masks prevents the spread of COVID-19. Continued use, however, can irritate the skin.

Causes of skin redness

Most of the time, disposable respirators that can cause some reddening of the face correspond to the FFP2 and FFP3 models. They are more rigid than the masks commonly known as "surgical or hygienic". The rubbing of our face with this type of mask, together with perspiration, leads to chafing, irritation and occasional itching.

Beauty routine to avoid irritation:

To prevent our skin from suffering, it is important to care for and moisturise our face on a daily basis. At Gisèle Denis, we have prepared a beauty routine to avoid face irritation caused by face masks:

Before using the mask

Take advantage of your morning beauty routine to prepare your skin before going out. Follow these steps:

1- Cleanse your face with micellar water or cleansing milk to remove excess oil and/or make-up.

Our range of Gisèle Denisfacial cleansers, , are perfect for effective cleansing. Apply a small amount of product directly to your face and spread with the help of a cotton pad. Thanks to our innovative formulas and combinations of active ingredients, your skin will be clean, soft and toned.

2- Moisturise your skin.

When we reach our forties, it is important to use a face cream to combat the signs of ageing. At Gisèle Denis, we advise you to add to your beauty routine our SUPREME SOLUTION Intensive Moisturising face cream, a cream with which you will achieve the optimum level of hydration that your skin needs. Thanks to Jojoba and its formula enriched with Glycerol, Imperata Cilindrica and Hyaluronic Acid, your skin will remain hydrated at all times. Finally, before applying the mask, don't forget to apply your sunscreen to avoid the harmful effects of the sun.

After using the mask

Before you go to bed, take a little time to pamper yourself and spend a few minutes repairing your skin. As you will have noticed, wearing the mask all day long takes its toll. Our skin suffers, it doesn't perspire and chafing on the nose, cheeks and ears is visible. This is the perfect time to use nourishing products to help combat dryness and tightness.

We will repeat our facial cleansing routine and then apply a treatment to help repair our skin:

Our VITAMIN ESSENTIALS Multi-Action Nourishing Cream contains effective active ingredients for the cell regeneration of dry skin, providing extra hydration and radiance while evening out skin tone. You can enrich your repairing cream with a few drops of our Silicium, Arginia and Aloe Vera concentrate for extra radiance and luminosity.

Now that you know how to prevent and repair skin damage by using a mask, repeat our beauty routine every day. You will succeed in combating irritation and avoiding skin problems.
