5 Silk Face Masks That Your Skin Will Thank You For Using

If your skin is prone to maskne and you’re having trouble breathing through those thick-layered cotton masks, it’s time to switch to silk masks. This soft material will be gentle on your skin and cause less friction and irritation.

Believe it or not, wearing a mask is now an integral part of our lives (herald the “new normal"). According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the World Health Organisation (WHO), covering your face can significantly lower the risk of becoming affected with Covid-19.
