The Young and the Restless Star Eric Braeden Gives A Masking Lesson

Masks are just a way of life now throughout the world until the coronavirus pandemic can be completely controlled, and while they can seem to be an odd inconvenience, they have been proven to save lives and The Young and the Restless star Eric Braeden is a huge champion of them.

Eric Braeden Has A Message

In fact, he is such a champion for mask-wearing that he is selling his own masks with his likeness on it, telling us to “Wear The Damn Mask” and to vote, because voting is a sacred right and can help change the world for the better.

Now, Braeden wants to make sure you know how to use his masks, which are easily adjustable to fit comfortably on people of almost any size. (Soap Hub can attest to this. They are also the most comfortable masks this writer has worn since March.)

The actor’s masks come with adjustable earloops with a fabric end you simply pull down for the perfect fit. You can see Braeden demonstrating how to use them in the tweeted video below. (And don’t forget to make sure you’re wearing your mask over your nose.)

The Young and the Restless History

YR made its debut in 1973 and introduced more sexual undertones and younger characters to daytime soap operas. It has outlasted other soaps to become a mainstay for many households. Needless to say, four decades of storylines have kept viewers locked in and wanting more.

From Victor Newman’s (Eric Braeden) family machinations to Paul Williams’ (Doug Davidson) heroism to the adorable love story of Kyle (Michael Mealor) and Lola (Sasha Calle), YR knows how to entertain and keep fans coming back for more. Sadly, times are shifting and daytime soap operas are shrinking.

Bringing the Drama

It is one of only four remaining soap operas currently on the air. The other three daytime dramas include General Hospital (GH), Days of our Lives (DAYS), and The Bold and the Beautiful (BB). YR airs weekdays on CBS. Check your local listings for air times.
