Comments from drafting
[edit]Comment: Thank you! I have found some more sources, but haven't had time to read them and include them. I wasn't sure if it should be an article either, but I thought I'd start here and see what happened. * Doctormomma (talk) 01:44, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
Comment: A scholarly, peer-reviewed source has been added. It has other citations that could be useful to include as well. * Doctormomma (talk) 21:19, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
Comment: Please remove the phrases saying that the word was used here and there. It is a cherry-picking original research based on primary sources (frowned upon in wikipedia). Wait for a secondary source to say someting on the history of this neologism. Instead, use these references as sources for information to be added to this article.

A bit NOTHOWTO
[edit]Though cases range in severity, people who experience maskne find that flare-ups can occur anywhere on the face that is typically covered by a mask.[1] For example:
- Jawline
- Cheeks
- Lips
- Nose
- Ears
Preventative measures and treatment for maskne can include:
- Swapping and/or washing masks frequently
- Washing face at least twice a day
- Limiting facial cosmetics when wearing a mask for an extended amount of time
- Using over the counter acne medicine as needed or as directed by a dermatologist[2]

I move the above here from the article because I don’t think it is encyclopedic. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 00:08, 2 May 2021 (UTC)
