mask
Identity concealment device
A mask is an object that fits over the face for concealment or disguise (Halloween mask), or for some purpose (oxygen mask, gas mask).
A cosmetic spread over the face is also a mask (moisturizing mask).
Figuratively, a mask is behavior that gives a false impression or deceives others about your nature or intentions.
To mask something is to cover it with a mask, conceal it, or disguise it.
A medication may mask symptoms of a disease, that is, make them undetectable.
