Guide Picks - Top 5 Medicated Acne Masks
Facial masks can be a great addition to your basic skin care regimen. Not only are they relaxing to use, facial masks offer extra deep cleaning and exfoliation to troubled skin. Masks send a concentrated dose of proven acne fighters to your skin and deliver them deep down. A good facial mask can act to keep even the most troubled skin clean and clear, reducing the frequency and severity of breakouts. Again, whether you opt for a medicated product or an all natural one is simply a matter or personal preference. Here, we have picked out our 5 favorite medicated masks for you to try.
1) Neutrogena Cooling Gel Mask
This mask is not specifically for the treatment of acne, rather it is intended to clear pores, so it shouldn't be expected to eliminate existing blemishes. However, when used regularly this product will clean out and minimize the appearance of pores with the added benefit of controlling the breakouts related to clogged pores. It feels great on the face and really gets your skin clean.
2) DDF Sulfur Therapeutic Mask
A phenomenal acne mask that clears skin up after only a few uses. Even the most stubborn acne is easily treated with this mask. Use as directed according to your skin type and the severity of your breakouts. The active ingredient is sulphur, which penetrates acne without drying the skin. Works to calm acne inflamed skin, eliminate blemishes, unclog pores, and prevent new breakouts.
3) Total Skin Care Soothing Camphor Mask
This soothing mask draws out impurities and promotes healing. It uses camphor and oat flour to calm and soothe irritated skin. Sulfur stimulates healing by acting as an antiseptic and Titanium Dioxide absorbs excess oils on the skin surface. Can also be used as a night treatment on blemishes.
4) Neutrogena Oil Absorbing Acne Mask
Another great mask by Neutrogena, this one specifically formulated for acne prone skin. The clay based mask gets skin really clean and helps deliver a dose of benzoyl peroxide to blemishes. After two weeks of regular use, your skin will look clearer and feel cleaner.
5) PTR Therapeutic Sulfur Masque Acne Treatment
This therapeutic, medicated masque contains sulfur and purified clay designed to exfoliate dead skin cells and clear blemished skin. Penetrates clogged pores, dries up oily skin, and adjusts automatically to your T-zone. When used as directed, clears up blemishes and helps prevent future breakouts.
