Neff Bearded Face Mask

The Neff Bearded Face Mask allows skiers and snowboarders to keep their faces warm in style. The synthetic, brow fibers of the mask mimic facial hair, presenting the appearance of a long beard. This face mask is highly functional and will keep the lower face and neck warm during extreme weather conditions. However, the coolness factors are about the only benefit of this design.

First, the materials of the mask will pose a problem for most users. Made form 50 percent cotton and 50 percent polyester, this mask will irritate the skin of sensitive consumers. Further, the polyester will become dirty quickly, reducing the bright brown color of the mask. Polyester easily becomes permanently stained, and it can be difficult to clean the material in a washing machine. Hemp fiber should be explored as an alternative to reduce the amount of polyester used in the mask.
