Jaxon Lane Bro Sheet Mask x 4
Do you mask, bro? If not, it’s time you started. After all, men’s skin tends to be oilier and more acne-prone than some female counterparts. Enter the Bro Mask from Jaxon Lane, which uses the power of hydrogel technology to achieve peak hydration while absorbing active ingredients. Comprised of four Korean sheet masks, it delivers the collagen, Vitamin B3, and plant extracts that your skin craves, thereby repairing blemishes and sun damage. It’s also made up of separate components, allowing you to easily navigate around hair or other intrusions.

Rounding out its masculine allure is a leathery base of styrax, birch, musk, and tonka. Put it all together and you have a scent that’s too bold to deny and too sumptuous too refuse.
