This fashion fail could be justified if it was limited to the outdoors - because many ladies in China are particularly sensitive about shielding their faces from the sun. However, some of these women are taking face-protection too far by keeping their visors on even the sun-free INDOORS. This summer ladies across China are scaring small children by wearing what looks more like a welding mask than this season
