AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention relates to a face mask that can be held on the wearer's face without any additional holding mechanisms. The ear face mask component is secured over the wearer's ear by a slot formed in the die cut out, and a small appendage behind the ear is used to hold the mask. The mask can be easily removed. In another embodiment, the mouth face mask component has holding tips that hold the mask to the wearer's face, and the mouth can be designed with realistic graphics and shading. The use of natural skin tones and shadowing makes this a simple, creative, and realistic face mask.

Problems solved by technology

There are not, however, flat (good for storage and for ease of manufacturing) nor do those nose coverings / clown noses, present any change to the mouth, lips, anything in the mouth, and chin / cheeks of the wearer.

Of course, make up has been used before on faces to disguise and masquerade the same but the application of make-up is difficult, time-intensive, and messy.

These are expensive to make and have limitations to the variety of the display presented.
