The third is more often used for a man, but can also be used for women. For example, a woman with a Tomboy personality during the day might for contrast wear a sleep mask at night, or one might be used to emphasize one character's girly nature [[Tomboy and Girly Girl|in comparison to another female cast member]].
Tropes that may apply: [[Spoiled Sweet]], [[Spoiled Brat]] or [[Rich Bitch]]. Often but not always worn by the villainess.
Bonus points if the mask has painted eyes.
