Not only is acne the most common skin condition in the U.S. but with regular mask-wearing comes a surge of “maskne”. The friction from the mask with the moist environment causes pores to become clogged, resulting in breakouts and blemishes. Ashland™ has ingredients for skin health, pre-treatment, and treatment of acne and post-acne scars.
