Masknehas quickly become the bane of lockdown for the masses so whenever someone in the know offers up a solution we immediately snap to attention. Serving up a top notch maskne solution this week is none other than Riviera star Poppy Delevingne. Poppy has always taken a keen interest skincare and make-up and has access to some of the best experts (she's close friends with world renowned make-up artist Florrie White) and most lauded products in the beauty ether, so it goes without saying that if ever Poppy takes the time to dole out beauty advice and product recommendations you can bet we'll be listening closely. Most recently Poppy Delevingne took to her Instagram stories to share a few of her favourite beauty products with her 1.7 million strong following.
It didn't escape our notice that Poppy chose to spotlight CeraVe's SA Smoothing Cleanser, £12, as her go-to maskne solution. Poppy wrote 'My dearest friend & make-up artist @florriewhitemakeup introduced me to this brand last year on a shoot, & I've never looked back. It works wonders if you suffer from maskne like I do.' This cleanser is a firm Grazia beauty favourite too. The gel-like formula very gently exfoliates as you cleanse to help clear up unwanted breakouts, smooth skin and nourish your complexion in one (it's packed with hyaluronic acid to aid hydration).

The very best skincare products to combat maskne
1 of 8Indeed Labs Hydraluron Moisture Serum, 30 ml
Hydraluron is somewhat of a cult product in the beauty industry and it's no surprise. It uses hyaluronic acid at a low-mid range price to prep your skin before you put that £££ moisturiser on top. Essentially, it makes sure that you get EVERY penny's worth of hydration out of your moisturiser. One reviewer even said, "OMG this does something amazing." Sounds good, right?
2 of 8First Aid Beauty Skin Lab Resurfacing Liquid 30ml (10% AHA)
Caroline Hirons recommends this. Need we say more? Ok, but seriously, this product has all the ingredients you need, glycolic acid, lactic acid, hyaluronic acid - literally all of them. Just don't forget to wear SPF, this product will leave your skin baby fresh, so protect it.
3 of 8PAULA'S CHOICE Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant( 118ml )
This product is a cocktail, and not the sort that will leave you feeling lousy the next day. In fact, this BHA is water based with 2% salicylic acid - Dr Rasha approved, don't you think?Plus, one reviewer LITERALLY wrote, "My skin has never looked so good." That could be you so get this one in ya basket.
4 of 8Kiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado
Another cult product, there's literally nothing to dislike about this one. It's creamy, it's hydrating, it's good for sensitive skin (unless you're...allergic to avocados) and it's an all-round good egg. So, if Dr. Rasha says you need an eye cream, this is your best bet, if you ask us.
5 of 8CeraVe SA Smoothing Cleanser | 236ml/8oz
This cleanser from CeraVe is honestly such a bargain. It's less than a tenner, it's almost 250ml and it's got both salicylic and hyaluronic acid, too. We can't get enough. Plus, it's fragrance free, for those of you with sensitive skin.

A classic in the industry, Pixi Glow Tonic is a firm fave of ours. Not to mention, Caroline Hirons is a HUGE advocate.

If you didn't already love The Body Shop, this product is going to convert you. Use it once a week and it'll be sure to lift away all of the nasties that have been left behind under your mask. Plus, with added moringa seed oil, your skin will smell heavenly for days. Yes please, babes.
8 of 8Murad Nutrient-Charged Water Gel, 50ml
We have it on good authority from the Closer team that this moisturiser will work wonders. It's super cooling and moisturising, but with its oil-free formula, it's a great choice for oily to combination skin types (say goodbye to unwanted shine ud83dudc4b). To quote one John Lewis shopper, it leaves skin feeling "soft and hydrated." Dreamy.
