New life New mask

Just checking in with y'all, I'm still alive and will be masking more in the future! Here are a few new pictures from a recent shoot.

I'm wearing the Taylor Mask from CreaFX and I can't say enough good things about it. It's certainly my new favorite thing. It's unlike any other female mask I've ever worn and feel like they've finally achieved what us maskers have been looking for ever since we've been masking. It's so much closer to what I've always wanted in a mask. It truly feels like a second skin and moves more naturally than any other mask I've tried.

When wearing the mask, it feels a lot like I'm wearing a thin layer of dough on my face, almost like if someone were tossing dough for a pizza and dropped it on my face. After wearing it for about 20 or 30 minutes it seems to warm up and cling to my face more and more. It seems like the longer it's worn, the better the fit becomes. It's thin enough to actually show expression, I can smirk in it and move the eyebrows easily. The feeling of wearing it is fantastic and the look is even better.

It seems like part of the secret of what makes it so great is this dough-like consistency and the other part is that there are plastic U-shaped supports throughout the bridge of the nose that keep mask fitting snugly around the eyes and nose. Normally masks pull off the face around the nose and spread out and interfere with how the eyes fit, but with this support system in the nose of the mask, it makes it fit very well.

The only cons are that it is extremely thin and stretchy (which is also a pro) however it seems like it could tear easily. Also, after wearing it for the first time, I noticed a small tear on the inside of the mask. It didn't make an impact on the exterior of the mask, but it was clearly a weak point where I could see it ripping. I contacted CreaFX immediately and they offered to send a silicone repair kit for free, which was very nice.
Nonetheless, time will tell whether it is actually durable or not, but after only wearing it a couple times, I am not sure how long it will last (I hope for a very long time!)

If you have any questions or comments, please ask me!

I have the Taylor applied version which is very thin. A tear developed in the neck portion. I had to sever the lower neck from the rest of the mask. This is by far the best silicone mask period. I paid 900 Euros to Crea FX for it. I should have notified Crea FX for them to send me a repair kit. I was afraid the tear would progress into the facial portion of the mask.

You've never looked better, thought the clothing is pretty vanilla compared to your past material.

Thank you everyone for the comments!
Anonymous 1) that's rough, I'm sorry to hear it! I actually took the picture the moment I unboxed it and sent the e-mail immediately, without thinking about it. Afterward I felt bad about making the complaint, but to my surprise they were very understanding about it! Especially since I didn't actually open the box containing the mask until a month after it arrived. So I was afraid they'd assume I had damaged it during the course of that month, but they didn't ask any questions.

Thank you thank you, more pictures to come!

Anonymous 3) Thank you so much! Yes, during this huge gap of time when I wasn't masking I was moving and settling into my new home. In the process I purged all of my women's clothes, most of my latex, and vitually all of my silicone (femskin, masks, padding, etc.) So I'm starting over from square 1, which means I won't have a lot of clothing variety, unfortunately.

I wonder about what makes you to reverse your decision???
