The result comes out at roughly half the weight of the standard version of the same design — in the region of 100–110g against 200–260g — and retains a warm, natural surface texture. Because no base coating is applied, habutae-bari masks are more delicate than standard versions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare \u0026amp; Storage\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvoid direct sunlight and high-temperature environments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIf the mask gets wet, gently blot with a dry cloth and air-dry in the shade.
