When you act as if you are a better-looking person than what you look like in real life by dressing smartly because your face mask conceals your facial flaws, or you pretend to be a plain Jane via a face mask to avoid or minimize any public stare by dressing sloppily.
Since the start of the pandemic, millions of women (and a few thousand men) have saved lots of money on cosmetics, because they maskquerade themselves so well on those days when they need to go back to the office.

Definition:
Maskquerading the practice of keeping up appearances but only providing lip service to social distancing guidelines that curb the spread of Covid-19. Typically performed by Millennials and older image conscious liberals (see Tesla drivers). Excludes those who actually care. Also, generally excludes Gen Z, Republicans, and #MAGA Supporters who don’t even try to keep up appearances ‘cause they don’t give a fuck.
Usage:
Paul: Damn, EB. That face mask is 🔥! Didn’t realize you were concerned about COVID. Is it N95? Noticed you drinking White Claw through it

Eugenio: Shit, more like N01. I'm just maskquerading by wearing this retro mesh jersey around my face for looks. Social distancing don’t matter, we’re millennials!

Definition:

A Maskquerade Ball is any social event regardless of sophistication in which participants gather, wear protective masks, and at least provide lip service to following social distancing guidelines to stop the spread of Covid-19. Costumes, decadence, and/or haughty self-absorbed party guests may be present but not required unlike Masquerade Balls.
Usage:
Chad: Damn, Gina is looking 🔥 tonight at the maskquerade ball with that N95 covering her hairy upper lip. I wish I could hit that but... you know... Covid.

Todd: Shit, get on that. Social distancing don’t matter, we’re millennials. YOLO!
