An improved facial insulator is disclosed for restricting heat loss from exposed skin surfaces. In a general embodiment, the facial insulator comprises a support pad having a design surface for displaying a design and an opposed adhesive surface having an edge strip along a perimeter edge of the pad and an insulating area defined by the edge strip as a circumference of the insulating area. A pressure-sensitive adhesive covers the edge strip, and an insulating material is affixed to the insulating area of the adhesive surface of the insulating pad. At least one downstream vent break and at least one upstream vent break are in generally opposed locations on the edge strip for permitting air to flow through the insulating material to remove any perspiration or moisture. A release layer is affixed to and covers the adhesive surface of the support pad. In a further embodiment, the facial insulator of the present invention may comprise a facial insulator set including insulators dimensioned in the shape of thin-flesh facial areas such as a nose bridge facial insulator and a pair of upper cheek bone facial insulators, so that only those thin-flesh areas are covered; and the vent breaks of the nose bridge and upper cheek bone facial insulators are positioned along their edge strips to facilitate movement of ordinary air currents through the insulating material, such as air currents passing over exposed facial skin surfaces of a down hill skier.
An improved facial insulator for restricting heat loss from exposed skin surfaces, comprising:
An improved facial insulator set for restricting heat loss from exposed skin surfaces, comprising a nose bridge facial insulator, a left upper cheek bone facial insulator, and a right upper cheek bone facial insulator for restricting heat loss from a user's nose bridge and left and right upper cheekbones, wherein the nose bridge, left upper cheek bone and right upper cheek bone facial insulators each comprise:
