I bought this as a simple costume accessory for a Christmas Masquerade ball.  I combined it with other parts including some "EL Wire" ex.&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Portable-El-Wire-10-Feet-Long-Fluorescent-Green/dp/B007KIW6KM/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Portable El Wire 10 Feet Long (Fluorescent Green)</a>&nbsp;to make a really cool glowing mask.

This mask has a molded plastic handle and a flexible fabric/polymer type pressed material for the mask...it is not shiny or reflactive...very matted finish.  This worked really well for my needs.
