Centrelink worker Ashleigh Baraiolo
A full-time Centrelink worker who created an acne-clearing facial mask during COVID-19 lockdown has seen her business boom over the past two months.
Ashleigh Baraiolo launched Baeskinco on March 31 after struggling with painful spots, irritation and redness for most of her life.
The Perth-based entrepreneur credits the brand's $58 'Ultimate Glow Mask' for giving her clear skin while in isolation, with nutmeg and witch hazel included in the formula to shrink pores, seaweed and jojoba oil for hydration and aloe vera for calming redness.
'I tried everything to treat my severe breakouts but nothing seemed to work and would leave my skin even angrier and more irritated,' Ashleigh told FEMAIL.
With the coronavirus and social distancing rules limiting access to beauticians Ashleigh decided to bring her mask to the public in March - and has sold 240 units since.
'I work in "job active" under the Centrelink banner, so when someone signs up to Centrelink we help process them to finalise their claim. So we have been and still are flat out,' she said.
Despite this Ashleigh and her boyfriend have been taking it in turns to pack orders before and after work, excited about the prospect of creating a 'multipurpose product'.

'The mask can be used as a regular face mask, spot treatment or a cleanser, so it really works as a one-size-fits-all ointment,' she said.
With specialist natural additives like spirulina, pomegranate and apricot on the ingredients list customers are welcoming using a brand that uses minimal chemicals.
'Such a beautiful mask! I am sceptical of masks as I always feel like they they go on nicely, then you wash them off and your skin looks nice for a little bit but then... nothing. I used Bae's glow mask and I noticed instant results, even hours later my skin still looked bright and tight,' one woman said.
'I LOVE using the glow mask! Feels like it really works without covering my face in harsh chemicals and it's made in Oz, winning,' said another.

'Every day I receive DM's from customers saying how much this mask is helping their skin... I had one customer say it cleared up their skin overnight,' Ashleigh said
A third added: 'My target areas are some scarring and large pores on my cheeks, both have had a significant improvement since I've begun using Bae'.
'Every day I receive DM's from customers saying how much this mask is helping their skin... I had one customer say it cleared up their skin overnight,' Ashleigh said.
The popularity and demand for the brand has encouraged Ashleigh to develop a new product 'which will be the next step to achieving a glowing body', due for release soon.
