Part of my fit and yes I will stuff it with herbs
hell yes
Should I be sadness or Hamas?
Love this idea OP, I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately. I’d love to attend a convention next year, and I was thinking about wearing a cloth mask over an N95 (or higher) that has the character’s face printed on it. Kinda like this if I were doing this witch costume:
Anyone else see similar masks or ideas?
When people were at peak give a shit, there were a lot of printed masks out there. Best just to search for something specific and you,'ll probably find it. i’ve got some bluey/bingo ones my niblings loved me wearing
Last year I went to a small themed party as this pokemon. I used a white dress, green petticoat & green gloves, a masquerade mask, white N95 and a green wig styled to a bob. It came out beautifully and for very cheap. I got so many compliments. Masks are already part of so many costumes, there is no reason they can’t work for lots of ideas.
Wouldn’t applying any kind of dyes or paints to N95 type masks weaken their effectiveness? Isn’t it possible that saturating a mask with these kinds of particles could compromise the effectiveness (I recall reading the effectiveness is compromised in very high humidity conditions I think).
Anyone have any papers or reading on this? Obviously even a compromised (K)N-95 would be better than nothing but might be better to wear something cloth that’s been colored instead over it?
You can get kn95s in all sorts of colors. N95s are a bit harder and I would recommend a cloth covering.
Yeah paint would permanently break the filter of a mask. Also you’d probably be breathing the paint particles which can’t be healthy lol. But the mask in the picture looks like it was bought in that colour.
