During the boarding process on Aircraft X from ZZZ to ZZZ1; I was working the AFT position. I noticed that the Passenger X seated in seat X4 had his mask down. He waited until he passed my flying partner to pull it down. He took his seat and was talking to a passenger across from him. Once I was done saying my 5 minute to door closing announcement I began walking to the front of the aircraft. Once I got to row X; [Passenger X] had his mask down under his chin. I told Passenger X he had to place his mask over his nose and mouth. He looked at me rolled his eyes and did a heavy sigh. I walked away and Passenger X began discussing the mask issue with the passenger seated across from him whom I learned was his friend who was original assigned to seat Y1; but decided to change his seat to seat X1 instead. Passenger Y had an oversized laptop in the back seat pocket and I told him that he had to stow it in a bag under the seat in front of him or in an overhead bin. He replied 'Yes; ma'am.' Once the doors were closed I began doing my compliment check passenger seated in X4; Passenger X had his mask down below his nose this time. I spoke to him once again. He wasn't happy about it so he rolled his eyes again at me and snatched the mask up over his nose and shrugged his shoulders. This was the second time Passenger X had to be reminded about his mask.
