Is there a different process in making them that I am not aware of? I know basically how a latex mask is made, could someone who has a plaster mold for a latex mask also make a silicone one from it? Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I know nothing about it.
exactly what you said.
the materials are priced much higher, and silicone masks are considered to be a higher quality than latex, especially when it comes to wearing them.
plus, there really aren't too many people who sell silicone masks, so they can be priced fairly ridiculously.
