Thread: Facial masks - yay or nay?

Haha! Agreed, nancyboy is not the best name.

I may invest in one of those Vader masks instead!!!

I've seen my wife do them and then I ask myself, do I really want to do that to my face? To me it would be taking away from the "manliness" of straight shaving. Id feel more like a girl at that point. Half the reason I wanted to straight shave was because I wanted to do something my grandfathers would have done way back when. I don't think they used facial masks. Call me old fashioned.

I occasionally use a facial mask with my fiance. Perhaps after some *ahem* alone time and a hot shower, we'll let our masks dry while having a sip of wine, watching a tv show, and enjoying each others company. I can say that my face feels smooth after a mask, but I don't partake for the skin benefits - mostly just to enjoy some time with my special lady. If you'd like to try a facial mask - get some for your special lady! She'll love you for it, and you can try it with her. Some drugstores carry mask packs for no more than a buck or so a piece, so you can get a few different kinds for the both of you and go from there. Kind of a win-win, if you ask me!

I wouldn't be caught dead with my face slathered with that type of muck, but that's just me.

You gotta draw the line somewhere.

James got it right. If you would like to improve the health of your skin, instead of just trying to make it "look" more healthy, read Fats That Heal, Fats That Kill by Udo Erasmus PhD

Would lather qualify as a face mask? If so I use one almost every day.
