The hyper-realistic Gatekeeper Mask is made from high-quality, skin-safe, platinum silicone, and Flexible Foam. Backed by a 4-way flex power mesh this mask is durable and extremely stretchy. The mesh will help snap the mask to the wearer's face for a snug fit and help to prevents tears in the areas that tend to get the most stress. The silicone feels like real human skin and will flex and move with the wearer creating a life-like and terrifying look. Each mask is handmade and one of kind. Painstakingly detailed, the masks are painted in water-based paint. Layers and layers of paint create a translucent quality that mimics actual skin. Painted Veins, moles, freckles, scabs, boils, and wounds all combine with the sculptural form to bring this monster to life.

Airbrush Evolution is proud to present original, High Quality, realistic, and extremely durable Power-mesh Backed Silicone, flex foam, burlap, and cheesecloth masks for Halloween, theater, film, or as collectibles. It has been a personal dream of mine as an artist from a very early age to produce monster masks and sculptures. I hope you as an audience and a customer base enjoy these masks as much as I enjoy making them. I do take orders for custom characters and different paint schemes. Please allow up to 30 business days for the creation of your mask. Thank You

Sizing
Our masks are one size fits most. Keep in mind that the nature of silicone is that it is very flexible so the masks will fit a wide range of the population, but they will fit differently on each individual. We offer masks in female fit or male fit which is denoted in the listing. We cannot; however, take a mask style and change the fit due to the nature of the build process. Any foam, burlap, or mummy masks will also have the female or male fit inner dimensions just without the flexibility of the silicone.
The Male Head Masks measures internally 18" H x 13" W x 11" D with a circumference at the brow of 23" approximately.
The Female Head measures internally 17” H x 12” W x 9.5” D with a circumference at the brow of 22” approximately.

Care Instructions
Thank you for your purchase. Some tips for your mask.
Cleaning-
Silicone- You may use soap and water to clean it, Dawn dish soap is great. Either, soak it entirely in a bucket, then rinse with water or just use a brush with the soapy water solution and brush it onto the surface. Then go back over with a brush of clean water or rinse with water. Air Dry.
Foam- Use a damp soft cloth to sponge or pat off any dust or debris. Avoid the use of any solvents and do not apply too much pressure to puncture through the paint and sealant into the foam
Putting it on-
I recommend dusting the inside of the mask with baby powder to help it slide over the head. Take care not to pull it on by the neck or eyes or any of the areas that feel thinner. These are the weakest points of the mask and can tear if too much pressure is applied. There are a number of great YouTube videos out there to demonstrate the best way to put on a full silicone mask. I recommend watching one to help clarify what I’m trying to say.
I try to put the mask as far down the back of the head as possible using the backs of my hands inside the back of the neck on the mask. I Stretch it a bit as I slide it down the back of my head as far as possible. It makes things easier if you have someone helping you by balancing the rest of the mask so it does not flop over one side or the other.
Then using my fingers reach as deep into the front side of the mask as possible to stretch it down over your face. It may take a few attempts of pulling down the back then alternating to the front to get it to slide down. After it is on use your palms to adjust the other parts of the face.
Taking off the mask is basically the same process in reverse, raise it off the front of your face, then shift to the backside and raise it off the back of your head, alternating back and forth as necessary. Taking off and putting on the masks takes a bit of practice to get it right without applying too much pressure to the mask, it is difficult to explain the process in words, but really not that difficult to do.
