During COVID-19 coronavirus disease pandemic, many front-line care and medical staff have had to wear face masks for long periods which has caused some serious problems and discomort for those experienceing the new working conditions. Workers have found that facial skin under masks has become damaged which can lead to a range of skin conditions including dermatitis - those who wear masks for work now have to take better care of their skin than ever before:
Some of the consequncees of masks-wearing can be :
Irritant contact dermatitis due to the constant friction over areas such as the bridge of the nose or the line of the jaw.
Allergic contact dermatitis which can lead to redness and sore skin
Flare-ups and clogged pores due to the increased humidity under the close fitting masks which can trap oil and subum released from skin pores
Perioral dermatitis inflammatory rash on the skin around the mouth.
Leaping Fish's Face Mask Balm has been produced in response to this new situation of Covid 19 where many front-line workers in the health and care sectors as well as individuals are having to wear face masks for long periods of time. We have blended premium oils and waxes to help form a barrier on the skin with a light mix of essential oils to help keep the skin clean and healthy. The balm will help prevent face masks causing dryness, bruises, and scrapes from various mask textiles and tight fitting edges where they are in contact with the skin. The balm will provide a fine layer of waxes and oils on the skin helping to reduce the friction and chafing from the mask, and the essential oils of Clary Sage, Geranium and Rosemary will help tto keep the mask feeling fresh and hygienic, with the Clary Sage's anti-bacterial qualities helping to keep skin clean.
