Women in China wear these crazy face masks to the beach so they don't get tan
Especially popular at the beach in Qingdao, China, the masks are meant to prevent sunburn and maintain the porcelain teint that's so prized in China.
As the accompanying full body suits prove, China's women aren't taking ANY risks when it comes to their skin. Being tan, to this day, is associated with being a commoner in China.
The head socks also prevent jellyfish stings and protect from algae, which is prevalent in China’s Shandong province.
Similar to a balaclava or hijab, the masks are made of waterproof materials. Some even have fun designs.
