It's as self-explanatory as can be, something made of a swimwear like material that is used to cover up the face. Basically a ski mask for water. Who would've though, huh...
Editorji shares: "First gaining popularity in coastal cities, the Facekini's origins can be traced back to the beaches of Qingdao.
