FACE MASKS FOR ACNE-PRONE SKIN
I got asked the other day if I would share some good face mask recommendations for acne-prone skin, and I sure will!
⠀
Soooo, here you go!
🍯 HONEY FACE MASK
I LOVE to use a honey face mask! It’s anti-bacterial & moisturizing for the skin, and this one is especially great if you also have very sensitive & easily irritated skin.
⠀
Go after raw unheated honey or manuka honey. Put it all over your face and let it sit for 10-15 minutes, and then use a warm wash cloth to remove it and then do your normal skincare routine after.
⠀
🌱 CLAY FACE MASK
A clay mask is a great option if you struggle with a lot of blemishes/acne. It’s very cleansing for the skin. It can however also be very drying, so if you struggle with very dry skin, I wouldn’t recommend using it a lot/letting it sit for too long.
⠀
Just let it dry in, and then wash it off and then make sure to use some good serums/oils afterwards to moisturize your skin again.
⠀
✨ AHA / BHA PEELING MASK
Peeling acids such as AHA’s and BHA’s can help to smoothen the skin’s texture & give you that glow! BHA can also help to unclog and minimize enlarged pores.
⠀
If you have never tried peeling’s before (either as a daily product or a mask like the one on the picture) then build it up very slowly. Start out with 1 time per week for a few minutes, and then slowly build it up over time. I’ve used this peeling mask from @theordinary and I just use it for a few minutes.

Do you have a face mask you just SWEAR by? Or are you gonna try any of these this weekend? Share it in the comments 🙌🏼🍯
