June is Acne Awareness Month – a problem that affects up to 50 million Americans each year according to the AAD. With the added stress and the realities of our new normal, even more people are expected to experience stress-related acne problems. One of those common problems is “Maskne” or acne mechanica, a physical type of breakout that results from excessive heat, friction, rubbing and more.

Renowned Dermatologist, Dr. Rachel Nazarian, shares tips and tricks to prevent these problems.
