What’s a Facekini? And Will It Double Up as Fetish Gear or a Bank Heist Aid!
What’s a facekini you might be wondering? Well, it’s basically an entire face mask for your face to be worn at the beach to protect your skin from ultraviolet rays. Yeah, an entire face mask that looks like you’re about to perform a bank heist versus going out for a swim!
I should tell you that while prepping for vacation I brought my very first hat. I mean, I have baseball caps I’ll wear from time to time when running errands or during a workout but I’ve never had a hat for the beach or the pool. I’m obviously either getting old or just worried about my skin a little bit more than normal because I went and brought a cute sun hat. Do I feel silly in it? A little bit. Do I also, feel like a Rich Housewife from Boca Raton. Yeah, a little bit of that too.
But a facekini? I’m not going to wear one.
Honestly, the concept sounds like a great idea because let’s be real when you’re sitting by the pool or at the beach the sun can be intense. Even more so if you end up vacationing in an intensely hot environment like Vegas. I’m rarely out from under an umbrella if I sit by a pool in Vegas. I won’t chance the sun. But I’m not sure if I’d go around an entire face mask to protect my skin.
The facekini is apparently very popular with swimmers and beachgoers in China. It only reveals the eyes, nose, and mouth and is made from a stretchy material commonly used in bathing suits. If I’m being honest this totally gives me fetish vibes or I’m about to rob a bank ones. I can’t see myself wearing one. I’d feel ridiculous.
Would you go this far to protect your skin from the sun?
Is a facekini something that interests you?
