Abstract

Mercury (Hg) is a metal element that is often used in technology development, especially in the beauty sector. Several brands of creams can be seen in the market, have no manufacturing or expiry date stated, labeling is incomplete, or contain levels of bleach which can only harm the skin itself. The creams may have up to 10,000 ingredients in them, common ones being steroids, arbutin, ascorbic acid, hydroquinone, and kojic acid, including high levels of toxic metals such as mercury. There are still many Indonesian women who lose that white and smooth skin is a symbol of beauty. This makes them do various ways to get white and smooth skin. Facial whitening creams that contain mercury metal in cosmetic ingredients are widely used. Cosmetic products containing mercury generally promise a white face in a short time, so many women are interested in using them. This is used by cosmetic manufacturers who sell face whitening creams containing hazardous ingredients, such as mercury. Public policies need to be regulated to prevent impacts on the skin health of users. This article is the result of a study from several sources, namely information that appears in the community and also through several articles.

Abstract

Background: On March 11 2020, WHO declared COVID-19 as a pandemic. One of the efforts to prevent, control and break the chain of transmission of COVID-19 in the community is to use a mask. However, apart from feeling uncomfortable, many complaints about acne due to the use of masks are found in the community. During the COVID-19 pandemic, a popular phenomenon appeared on social media, namely "Maskne", a combination of the words mask and acne. Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence of acne due to the use of masks. Methods: The approach used in this research is quantitative, cross- sectional with data collection techniques through questionnaires. Data analysis using SPSS version 16.0 software. Results: The results showed that the longer use of masks, the higher incidence of acne; the more steps of cleaning the face, the smaller severity of acne. Conclusion: The incidence of acne due to wearing mask during the COVID-19 pandemic correlates with the length of time wearing a mask. The type of mask, the colour of the mask and the variety of beauty products used are not correlated with an increase in the incidence of acne during the use of masks.
