Similar celebrations are also held in the brazilian city of rio de janeiro. Regardless of where the festivals take place, however, all share a celebratory atmosphere.

I loved this item –purchased it for my family reunion–the beat thing was the head band which kept it on–the band allowed me to wear it over my face or on top of my head—I didn’t have to take it off and loose it—product was strong and well made

I ordered three masks; this one is very colorful and attractive, but I didn’t realize that it has a headband attached to it. I thought that it tied in the back. Though the band keeps the mask in place, it reminds me of the old fashioned harness that people received when the got braces. Out of the three that I received, it’s my least favorite.
