- the difference in a* is ⁇ a*
- the difference in b* value is ⁇ b*
- color difference ⁇ E [( ⁇ L*) 2 +( ⁇ a*) 2 +( ⁇ b*) 2 ] 1/2
- the color of the support portion 20 may be, for example, any of the colors (including No. 2 and No. 6) having hue numbers between No. 2 and No. 6 on the Ostwald color wheel. Since the color of the support part 20 blends well with the skin, the support part 20 becomes less conspicuous, and the presence of the support part 20 prevents the facial expression from becoming less conspicuous. Therefore, the visibility of the facial expression is enhanced, and the facial expression can be easily conveyed.
- the rigidity of the covering portion 10 may be higher than that of the supporting portion 20. Since the cover part 10 has a relatively high rigidity and is easy to maintain its shape, the cover part 10 is prevented from coming into close contact with the mouth unintentionally due to breathing, and the wearer can easily breathe. Further, by covering the entire outer edge 11 of the cover 10 with the support 20 having relatively low rigidity, the outer edge 11 of the cover 10 does not hit the face directly, but hits the face via the support 20 . Therefore, it is possible to suppress discomfort due to the outer edge 11 of the cover portion 10 digging into the face. In addition, even when the outer edge 11 of the cover part 10 is lifted from the face, the support part 20 can be flexibly deformed, so that the support part 20 can ensure close contact with the face.
- the displacement of the mask 1 due to the outer edge of the cover portion 10 coming into contact with the hand or the like can be suppressed.
- a wearer who uses sign language such as a hearing-impaired person, performs an action of placing a hand around the face, such as placing a hand on the cheek in sign language.
- the adhesion of the outer edge 11 of the cover part 10 is high, it is possible to suppress troubles such as hindrance of the sign language action and erroneous recognition that the action to correct the positional deviation of the mask 1 is the sign language action.
- the thickness of the cover part 10 may be 100 ⁇ m or more and 600 ⁇ m or less. Since the cover part 10 has a thickness of 600 ⁇ m or less and is relatively thin, it does not give a sense of discomfort when the face is covered, and it is possible to prevent the cover part 10 from floating up and hitting a hand or the like. In addition, when the thickness of the cover portion 10 is less than 100 ⁇ m (for example, 80 ⁇ m), the rigidity of the cover portion 10 is too low, and the cover portion 10 may come into close contact with the mouth. However, since the thickness of the cover part 10 is 100 ⁇ m or more, the cover part 10 can be given a certain rigidity, and the problem that the film sticks to the mouth and makes it difficult to breathe can be suppressed.
- the thickness of the covering portion 10 may be 180 ⁇ m or more.
- the thickness of the cover part 10 is 180 ⁇ m or more, the shape of the film is easily stabilized, and the cover part 10 can be easily arranged while maintaining a constant distance from the mouth.

- the shape of the central portion of the cover portion 10 in the cross direction Y can be maintained by the high-rigidity portion, and deformation of the cover portion 10 and close contact with the mouth can be suppressed.
- the high-rigidity portion of the present embodiment is constituted by the body fold line FL10. Further, in another embodiment, the high-rigidity portion may be configured by a joint portion in which the films forming the cover portion 10 are joined together.
- the joint part is not provided at the center of the cover part 10 in the cross direction Y.
- the high-rigidity portion may constitute a low-transparency portion, which will be described later.
- the support part 20 and the ear hook part 30 may be made of the same material. That is, the supporting part 20 and the ear hooking part 30 may be continuously formed of the same material instead of joining separate materials.
- the ear hook portion 30 pulls the entire outer edge 11 of the cover portion 10 outward in the cross direction Y via the support portion 20 when worn. At this time, since the support part 20 and the ear hook part 30 are integrated, the support part 20 and the ear hook part 30 can cooperate to pull the outer edge 11 of the cover part 10 and press it toward the face. Therefore, lifting of the outer edge 11 of the cover portion 10 can be suppressed.
- the support portion 20 may cover the entire area of the outer edge 11 of the cover portion 10 in the vertical direction X.

- the area of the portion surrounded by the dashed-dotted line is the area of the face when viewed from the front in the wearing state.
- the face-surrounding range is the part surrounded by the virtual line and the outline of the face.
- Table 1 shows the measurement results of the area ratio of the cover portion 10 when viewed from the front.
- Ten testers looked at their facial expressions through a mirror while wearing a mask, and evaluated whether or not their facial expressions were easily conveyed. If the person can convey information accurately and appropriately whether the mouth is open wide or small, the evaluation is " ⁇ ". In some cases, it was evaluated as " ⁇ ", and when there was about half the risk that information could not be conveyed accurately and appropriately, it was evaluated as "X”.
- the area ratio of the support portion is less than 20%
- Comparative Example 1 the area ratio of the support portion is 20% or more. According to the comparative evaluation, it was found that when the ratio of the area of the supporting part to the area of the face is less than 20%, information can be conveyed accurately and appropriately whether the mouth is opened wide or small.
