I don't know if you've noticed, but there's absolutely nothing written on those surgical masks everybody will be wearing in a bit. I couldn't help but think to myself: what a waste of advertisement space! Think about it, it's the perfect spot. When you go down the streets and come across somebody, the first place you look is at their face. Sure, you're probably more likely to look at their eyes first, but if they wear a surgical mask written NIKE on it in big, flashy (glow in the dark?) letters, I'm sure you couldn't help but run to the nearest shoe store to buy a pair of knickers.

Yet, I still haven't seen one with something written on it, and I really wonder why that is. Maybe it's a bit taboo. Too personal. You don't write stuff on your car advertising knickers, so why would you write something on your surgical mask? Yet, while cars have different colors, all surgical masks look the same, so the comparison is faulty. I'm quite sure we'll soon see people decorating their masks, painting them in bright colors or maybe even flags! I, for one, will sell my mask as an advertisement space. Hey, after all, I walk to go to work, and that's a good 15 to 20 minutes where people can see me walk up the streets, and rush to buy a pair of knickers.

Amiright?

fashion surgical mask is nothing new, it's been around for ages, heck I've even seen ones with Hello Kitty on it.

and for advertising........if you find a company with the right profile, who thinks advertising on a mask fits their coporate image, and actually bother to advertise on such a small scale,that really isn't a bad pitch. But problem is you don't get paid for the idea...so you will earn nothing more than those blokes handing out leaflets.

Not a single company will dare to publicly demonstrate the fact that they are abusing a pandemic situation for advertisement purposes, it will greatly damage their image.

It's been thought of and immediately rejected, I'm sure.

I for one will advertise LFS on my mask. So people can wonder what LFS is while they talk to me.

I'll go up to all my friends masks and write "LIES" across the front of them all.
