Pictures for illustration purposes only as product unopened and folded up small
(last two photos from an alternative colour of this design and the last one
shows that for someone who is petite, it could potentially be used as as a
sleeveless/strapless crop top, or rolled up to become a boob tube. This might be handy as impromptu beachwear for example, although
this is not its primary purpose and when stretched tight it may become slightly translucent).

Description
Classic
tubular design, with bold colours and a retro vintage-style repeated stylised
flower motif which looks very retro with a Sixties/Seventies vibe. Could be used as part of a fancy dress outfit
as a hippie in the peace and ‘free love’ folk/psychedelic/prog rock era.
Not sure
what type of flowers are supposed to be represented, but my guess is that it is
one of the following:
YELLOW
FLOWERS – Buttercups, Daffodyl (Narcissus), Dandelion, Forsythia, Marigolds,
Sunflower, Witch Hazel (yellow)
WHITE
FLOWERS - White Gerbera Daisies, White Jasmine
BOTH YELLOW
& WHITE FLOWERS - Anemones, Carnations, Chrysanthemums, Cosmos, Dahlia,
Peony, Roses
It's
simplicity makes it more versatile (as it is a multifunctional item – see images
and description below). Primarily for
use as a face and neck mask. Complies with UK government
restrictions relating to facemasks for public transport etc. Please
see list of features below…
Additional
Info / Features
Slightly
abstract design with echoes of the style eschewed by the hippie flower power
generation in the swinging Sixties. Breezy bohemian style, perfect for
spring/summer music festivals, like Glastonbury. For use as a versatile
fashion item.
This Face
Bandana/Neck Gaiter/Magic Scarf is made of a thin, lightweight polyester
microfiber fabric which has the following features:
- Is made
from a soft, durable, skin friendly material for comfort. Can be
washed and reused.
- Seamless
so it slips on and off easily without any restrictive or abrasive
seams. This means there are no pressure points, which reduces the
likelihood of headaches. Fortunately the weave on this microfiber
does not need to be hemmed and it should not unravel or fray.
- Can
absorb sweat AND dry quickly (it ‘wicks’ fast). Therefore transferring heat and
humidity away from your body. The ‘flash drying’ quick dry fabric
technology lets your bandana dry in minutes, instead of hours.
- Is
breathable and lightweight, therefore increasing comfort in use.
- Is
elastic and stretches more horizontally (than vertically) to fit the contours
of your neck and face.
- Keeps you
protected (from harmful UV light and sunburn) from the sun and keeps you warmer
in cold weather. Perfect as an extra layer for warmth and protection
against the wind chill factor when riding during Autumn/Fall, Winter, Spring
and even Summer.
- Guards
against wind, dust and insects (wind resistant, although not totally windproof,
dustproof and insect repellent).
ONE SIZE
FITS ALL for adults (not suitable for young children). Approximate
size 9.5" X 18" (not stretched).
Can be used
for activities, such as:
Running,
hunting, fishing, hiking, motorcycle, biking, skiing, snowboarding and
snowmobile riding, mountain, walking, climbing, paintball, traveling, yoga,
music festival, construction, outdoor working and daily wearing and so on.
Perfect for
bikers, hikers, outdoor sports, party, festival etc.
Multifunctional
tubular design, with many ways to wear it. Primarily to be used as:
- A neck
and face mask (as pictured), which can be a fashion item, or for the
aforementioned activities, OR for fancy dress!
Alternative
uses include:
- Pulling
it down, to be used purely as a snood-style SCARF or neckerchief.
- The blurb
suggests it could be used as a gag around the mouth for role play.
- Pulled up
and folded over on itself to become a blindfold.
- Up higher
to become a headband (to reduce sweat going into eyes).
- Or a
hair-band to prevent hair going in the eyes.
Or as other
types of headwear:
- A head
scarf (to channel plaited, dreadlocked or long hair towards the back of the
neck).
- Wearing
it as a beanie or skull cap (put around forehead and twist and pull the other
end back down on itself NB. In some countries this type of headwear is known as
a 'magic turban').
- Using
like a Bandana.
- A
balaclava (with one big eye hole, as opposed to two smaller ones).
- A
Dickensian style night cap, as worn by Scrooge (in this case to keep the head
warmer when camping, for example).
-
Potentially using as a sleeveless crop top (last image) or boob tube, although
it was not designed specifically for this purpose.
When not
being used in the ways above it can be twisted into a figure of eight to carry
it as a wrist band AND can be adapted for use as an arm sling in case of
emergency.

5.0 out of
5 stars “Effective face covering”
Reviewed in
the United Kingdom on 18 May 2020
At the
moment this is providing an effective face covering for my husband. It is
stretchy enough for him to get over his head, then fit closely over his nose
and mouth. It's an interesting design, as the simple ones can more easily be
used in the multi-functional ways specified on the wrapper.
