These options are made from PVC (polyvinyl chloride), heavy cardstock (for cutouts and decorations), and plastic for some wearable masks.
Most wearable masks use an elastic band or an adjustable strap to secure the mask and provide a comfortable fit.
Listed age ranges vary: some items are marked for ages 3 and up, others for adults (18+), and some products are labeled suitable for all ages.
Decorative details include colorful feathers on many wearable masks, double-sided printed heavy cardstock with a photo-like sheen, and printed 'no-mess' glitter-style finishes on some party cutouts.
The double-sided heavy cardstock cutouts can be used as centerpieces, hung individually from the ceiling, or hole-punched and strung together as a Mardi Gras banner.
Some bulk mask products carry CPSC choking-hazard warnings for small parts; those listings note 'choking_hazard_small_parts' alongside the suggested age information.
The masks and decorations are described for Mardi Gras, masquerades, parades, parties, festivals, and carnival events; some light-up masks are also noted for Halloween and other holidays.
Colorful feather masks use classic Mardi Gras colors—purple, green, and yellow/gold—while some light-up masks feature red and blue LED lights.
