RUGGED & DAPPER Detoxifying Mineral Clay Facial Treatment Mask For Men- 5 OZ - Combats Acne, Blackheads, Excess Oil & The Effects Of Aging - Natural & Certified Organic Ingredients

I approached the idea of using a face mask cautiously. Being a male, seldom do we men partake in grooming exercises beyond that of simply washing and shaving our ugly mugs. I used this product for the first time last night and I will preface this review with a 'wow.'Before I begin, I did this a bit quick and generally recommend that all agents be tested prior to facial application so as to avoid a negative response to the skincare product at hand. However, despite being fully aware of the possible dangers of applying a product prior to large area use, I did not do this. I was not negatively effected by this, but it never hurts to test on a sensitive area of skin; inside of arm near bicep and tricep, stomach, wrist, inner thigh, etc. should be good areas. I typically go for my forearm due to it being the easiest for myself.This product is just wow. I have not been getting much sleep lately and also have not been drinking a lot of water, so my face was showing signs of immense stress. I started this treatment with noticeable blotches on the skin, partially dry skin in some areas, and then partially oily skin in some areas. I cleaned my face very well with Cetaphil Sensitive Skin and then applied a decent layer of this clay mask to my face. I then took a power nap while waiting the 20-minutes for the clay to dry. It very well may have been fully dry in only ten-minutes, but I would not know. When my timer went off, I went into the washroom and proceeded to remove the mask with the use of warm water and a soft, delicate facial cloth.Upon removal of the product, I was awestruck. All of my blemishes and blotches were gone. My skin even felt hydrated and I perhaps may have been able to skip the moisturizing recommendation on the container. I decided not to skip the moisturizer, because I risk my skin drying out while asleep.Anyways, I am very satisfied with my first use and look forward to seeing all that this clay mask can do for my face in the future. I may even turn some heads when the ladies see the new mug I've got on. This may be one of the cheaper products on the market, but the results speak for themselves. I am really looking forward to Wednesday when I plan to once again use the Clay Mask.

Used once and honestly went very red after / day after - will give another try but not too sure about it present

I've used Rugged & Dapper's Face Mask for about two years now. I apply it once a week and as part of getting ready for any event that's likely to involve being photographed, i.e., fundraiser, gala, etc. I appreciate the tingling sensation when first applied, though I could see how someone with more sensitive skin might find it irritating. No more than the amount covering the skin is necessary, as the thicker you apply it, the longer it takes to dry and without adding any benefit to your skin. The correct amount should take about 15 minutes to dry fully, and you really shouldn't have it on any longer than 20 minutes anyway at the risk of severely drying out your skin. (Likewise, you may want to wipe the product off your lips before it dries.) I recommend wearing a robe or towel and avoiding much activity in the meantime, as too much facial motion causes it to flake off into fine, white dust that you will not likely appreciate finding all over the place. As soon as I wipe it off, my skin immediately appears visibly cleaner and tighter. At five to six uses a month, a 5 oz jar should last you about three months; and at a per-ounce cost of about $4.50 (at the time of writing), it will take less than $100 per year out of your disposable income, which is a highly competitive return on an easily sustainable investment. Because it is clay-based rather than mud-based, it helps clear up and prevent minor blemishes that generally affect men even after puberty (the trade off for having higher levels of sebum in our skin that delay the development of wrinkles), but that also means this product will dry out your skin if you use it too often or don't moisturize sufficiently. So, you need to account for a high-quality moisturizer when you're looking at your skin care routine and your budget, as well.

The dryness makes it less sticky, may have caused a couple of zits.Otherwise, great product. Makes the skin around my nose and on my forehead so smooth, which is the main reason I mask. Will likely buy again, but I may do a charcoal mask first. I like to mix up my mask habit to keep it fun :)

This was the first time I've tried a facial mask. I had heard of men using them before, but never really thought about using it myself. I have used lots of face lotions & other face creams & they never really worked the way I would have liked, so a friend of mine suggested trying a facial. So, I went to my favorite online shopping place Amazon. I looked up facial masks for men & came across Rugged & Dapper skin fuel for men. I read the reviews & checked out the ingredients, then I decided to buy some for a try. I ordered it & received it in a few days. I applied it & left it on for 15 minutes. My face was kind of tingling, but it felt good. After using this product one time, I could tell a big difference right away. My face was able to breath & it felt so refreshing. I waited about 5 days & applied it again. I can't believe how much I love this product. After several uses now, I can tell a big difference in my face. It feels so much cleaner & looks so much better than before. I have recommended this product to all my friends & family & even sent them photos of it on my face. Seeing is believing right? For all you men out there who are looking for something to open the pores, deep clean & make your face look better, I suggest you try this product. I was hesitant at first, but after using it for several times, I am highly satisfied with it's results. I think you will be too. I will be buying this product along with their other products again in the future. I'm a happy customer & my face is happy.
