    Abstract: A mask comprising a face covering component and an attached resilient, plastic component, wherein the resilient plastic component is secured to the rear of the face covering component, and wherein the resilient plastic component is adapted to hold the mask on the face of a user without the need for any independent holding means. The face covering component comprises two eye openings for the eyes of a user wearing the mask, and can comprise an image of a costume character. The face covering component can preferably be made of paper or a resilient plastic material. The face covering component can be a full-face mask, an upper-face mask, or an eye-covering mask. The resilient plastic is adapted to roll upon itself into a cylinder and the ends of the plastic layer tend to hold the mask to the temples of the wearer.
