Development concept ~ Moving toward an inclusive society ~
Now that wearing masks has become normalized, it has become difficult to communicate while looking at someone's face. In this situation, some people with hearing impairments read lips in order to understand conversations, and it has become difficult for them to communicate with people who are wearing masks, which is a problem. From the viewpoint of social responsibility as a mask manufacturer and facilitating social inclusion, Unicharm developed the Unicharm Face Visible Mask, with the aim of achieving an inclusive society in which all people can be independent and help each other while continuing to live lives that reflect their individuality.
*Social inclusion: The concept of each person being engaged as a member of society and supporting each other so that all people can live healthy and cultural lives.
The contribution to society has attracted a lot of attention, and has been reported in various news reports and articles.

Basics of selecting a mask: How to measure face size
Here is a method for easily measuring the size of your face, so you can select the mask size that fits you. The only thing you need is a ruler, so please try it.
1. Make an “L” shape with your thumb and index finger on one hand.
2. With your fingers in that “L” shape, touch the tip of your thumb to the part of the ear where the top starts to arch up away from your face. Then touch the tip of your index finger 1 cm below the top of the bridge of your nose.
3. Use a ruler, etc. to measure the distance between the tip of your thumb and the tip of your index finger, and that is the guideline for the size.
*Size guidelines for Unicharm Face Visible masks will be shown separately on the product page.
Recommended size
Measurement results | Recommended size |
9-11 cm | For kids |
10.5-12.5 cm | Small |
12-14.5 cm | Medium |
14 cm or larger | Slightly large / Large |
After you measure your face, use the table below to select the mask size. For example, if your measurement result was 11 cm, it would be the mask for kids or the small size, and if the result was 14 cm, it would be the medium or large size.

I used this product because my husband suffers from hearing impairment, and I was moved to tears by the difference in his response and understanding compared to when I was wearing a normal mask.
It will be even easier to use if the fogging of the transparent surface when speaking is improved.
My eldest daughter is ill, and has been hospitalized since she was born.
We have always wore masks, so she had never seen her own parents’ faces. I bought this product, and she could finally see our faces.
If it’s harder for facial oils to stick to the inside when wearing the mask, it would be easier to use.
