Face Masks That Fight Acne
Renée Rouleau Rapid Response Detox Masque
Acne-prone and sensitive skin sufferers will relish in the Rapid Response Detox Masque by the Renée Rouleau brand. As its name suggests, the cooling gel mask acts quickly to rid inflamed skin of bacteria and oil deeply embedded into pores. In addition, it simultaneously reduces your complexion’s redness. The trick is to use the mask a few days prior to your monthly cycle to prevent hormonal breakouts (or when you first notice a blemish forming).
