The facekini is a mask designed for swimmers and beachgoers, covering the head and revealing only the eyes, nose, and mouth. It was invented by Zhang Shifan, a former accountant from the coastal Chinese city of Qingdao. This mask is popular in Qingdao, where it is used by people for protecting themselves from tan inducing UV rays while in direct sunlight and from jellyfish while at the beach. The mask is made of a stretchy fabric that is commonly used in bathing suits, and comes in different colors and patterns. It is often worn with an accompanying body suit with long sleeves. Facekinis are under mass production in China and are available in local swim stores near beaches.
