How to Choose a Mask??

With the success of our Venetian Mask Christmas Tree at the Bay Centre this Christmas we wanted to promote an article about how to choose a Mask.

Masks can be very important for many events as they add a level of excitement, mystery and the perfect accessory for a night out or in the bedroom.

What sort of Masked Event are you attending?

Are you attending a Formal Black Tie Masquerade or a Traditional Masked Ball? Our traditional Venetian masks look great with period costume balls (think Cassanova or Phantom of the Opera) and include everything from the long nosed masks worn by men, to beautiful elaborate colourful feathered masks worn by women. For the more modern black tie masked ball or the 50 Shades of Grey Parties, anything goes – from a simple Zorro style eye mask for men to simple black lace masks for women like Anatasia wore in the movie, remember the more elaborate, outrageous or glamorous masks you can find the more the event will excite you and add a level to your outfit and experience.  Then for the Bedroom a simple Mask might work best or what you find sexually appealing.  Or the newest themed event and masks are Steampunk Masks perfect for Fetish Events, Raves, Swinger nights.

 

What size Mask should I choose?

Men: there are usually 3 types of masks i.e. full face, half face and eye mask.  Full face masks are great for totally disguising your identity – but not so great at events where you have to eat and drink! Half Face Masks – these might or might not cover the nose, but generally allow you to eat and drink easily and are a classic Venetian shape. Eye masks – usually suits most men and are generally easy and lightweight to wear. See these pictures below.

Women: If you have a smaller or slimmer face, then try to go for a small petite mask .  Remember the eyes as you want comfort quite beauty when wearing a mask.  Remember how much makeup and the colouring of your outfit and the theme of the event.

How do I know what size fits me?

The majority of people have a fairly good idea if they have a wider or smaller shaped face. If you are petite, then it’s likely you will have a petite face. However, it’s the shape of the face that matters when choosing a mask. All masks are worn over the eye area, so you need to look at the overall width of this area.

  1. If you are slim around the eyes and slim in the cheeks, then go for a smaller petite mask
  2. If you are slim around the eyes but have wide/rounded cheeks, then go for a standard mask
  3. If you have a standard face (not particularly small or large) then go for a standard mask
  4. If you are wide on the eye area or in the face, then go for a wider shape or flexible mask

Masks can be expensive based what type of material or how much detail is in the mask.  Remember a mask is an accessory to your outfit and event, it can be a huge sexual accessory for some people.  Therefore you have to take the time and look at masks as they will change your look, personality and attitude.  Therefore come into our store and take your time viewing our masks from leather bondage masks, Venetian Masks, Satin Masks, Feathered Masks, the new Steampunk Masks, Lace and Metal Masks.
