The facekini (Chinese: 脸基尼; pinyin: liǎnjīní) is a mask designed for swimmers and beachgoers that covers the head and face, revealing only the eyes, nose, and mouth.[1][2][3] The mask is made of stretchy fabric commonly used in bathing suits,[4] and comes in different colors and patterns.[5] They are often worn in combination with various sun protective clothing, such as body suits with long sleeves, sunglasses, visors, or umbrellas.[6][7]
