BLACKSTEEL Men’s Wrinkle Serum – FAQ & Skincare Answers

Q: Is BLACKSTEEL suitable for women?

Yes. While BLACKSTEEL was designed with men in mind — easy routine, no heavy scents, no extra fluff — the formula works just as well for women. The active ingredients are dermatologist-approved for all adult skin, regardless of gender. In fact, plenty of our customers are WOMEN that buy two bottles: one for themselves, one for their partner.

Q: Can i use If I have a beard ?

Yes. BLACKSTEEL is safe to use if you have a beard. Apply it directly to the skin underneath your beard, especially on the cheeks, jawline, and neck. It absorbs quickly, won’t clog pores, and won’t leave your beard greasy or sticky.

Q: If I use another skin product, should BLACKSTEEL go on first or last?

Generally, apply BLACKSTEEL first right after washing face and BEFORE any other moisturizers. If you’re using BLACKSTEEL as your only product, you’re done after it goes on—just add sunscreen in the morning.

Q: Is the source for your ingredients really as good as the brands selling for 4x?

Short answer: Yes. Long answer: Absolutely yes. We use the same high-grade, lab-tested ingredients you’ll find in “luxury” skincare selling for $60–$80 an ounce. The difference? We don’t bury the cost of celebrity endorsements, fancy packaging, over-the-top marketing, or shareholder demands for higher profits in our price tag. Our money goes into the formula—not fluff. If it’s in BLACKSTEEL, it’s there because it works. Period.

Some companies say 1% or 2% retinol or liposomal, etc. What does all the lingo mean?

A lot of skincare brands love throwing numbers and science-y words around because it sounds impressive. Here’s the truth:

Retinol % – Higher numbers don’t always mean “better.” Too much can cause irritation, redness, and peeling.

Liposomal – Just means the retinol is wrapped in a delivery system that helps it absorb better and release slowly, reducing irritation.

Our approach? We keep the active dose smart and effective—enough to work without wrecking your face. Our "1% liposomal complex" gets about 0.1% retinol where it needs to go to get the job done over time - without the burn. The hyaluronic acid (don't let the word acid fool you as it's the secret sauce to ultimate hydration) is 1%.

BLACKSTEEL is about results, not marketing fluff. If a number or fancy word doesn’t help your skin, we leave it out.

Does BLACKSTEEL help with under-eye bags and lines?

Yes — it can help improve the appearance of under-eye lines and puffiness over time.

BLACKSTEEL contains a combination of proven, skin-supporting ingredients that help hydrate, smooth, and strengthen the skin under the eyes.

Hyaluronic Acid helps draw moisture into the skin, which can temporarily plump fine lines and make the under-eye area look smoother and more refreshed.
Panthenol (Vitamin B5) supports the skin barrier and helps calm dryness or irritation, which can make under-eye lines appear more pronounced.
Retinol supports skin renewal and texture over time, which may help improve the look of fine lines with consistent use.

That said, under-eye bags are often caused by fluid retention, genetics, allergies, or lack of sleep, so results can vary from person to person. BLACKSTEEL is designed to improve the appearance of the skin, not to medically treat the underlying causes of eye bags.

For best results, use a very small amount and gently tap it into the skin under the eyes, allowing it to fully absorb. Avoid getting the product directly into the eyes.

If it's hydrating, why is it called Hyaluronic Acid

The name comes from its chemistry, not its feel on your skin. Hyaluronic acid is a sugar molecule your body makes naturally to keep skin, eyes, and joints hydrated. In skincare, it’s pH-balanced and gentle. It works as a powerful water magnet, not an exfoliating or irritating acid.

How do I best use BLACKSTEEL?

Simple: Start with a clean, dry face. Pump a small amount onto your fingertips and massage into your face, neck, and around the eyes (not in them). Use morning and/or night. Apply sunscreen during the day.

Is it safe for sensitive skin?

Most people tolerate BLACKSTEEL well, thanks to our smart-dose formula. If you experience any irritation, start every other night for the first few days, then go nightly if your skin’s happy, and then day & night.

Do you test on animals?

Nope. We’re proudly cruelty-free. The only faces we test on are willing human ones.

What’s your return policy?

We offer a 30-Day Risk-Free Trial. If you’re not happy, contact us within 30 days of delivery. We’ll refund your purchase price once the product is returned. We want you to love BLACKSTEEL, not feel stuck with it.

What is the shelf life of BLACKSTEEL?

BLACKSTEEL stays fresh up to a year after opening — thanks to our UV-blocking black glass and air-free treatment pump that keeps product sealed and fresh (no dropper exposure). Store it somewhere cool and dry, and it’ll keep working as hard as you do.
