Growing up my favorite turtle was Raphael. He was cool but crude, and had an attitude I could get behind. Now with COVID conventions are cancelled which means that we’re not able to show off our fandoms like we did before. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t ways to go about it. On Etsy I’ve found some cool turtle masks that are part neck warmer/ part headband and part lift up mask. Turning you into your favorite cartoon version of a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle.

The mask is going for around $26 and is something you can wear whenever you go out. It’s one of the nicer ones that you can wear around your neck and just lift up when you need to order fast food or enter a store. You can basically put it on and forget about it until you need it.
One of the downsides of having to wear a mask is that there’s no easy way to keep it on, unless you are committed to wearing it the whole time(even in the car). I’ve tried to keep mine on in the car by having it dangle from one ear but it almost always falls off. With this neck type mask you can easily just lift it up. Which is preferable to digging in my purse for my mask.
