Abstract
A system and apparatus for protecting the face of a user while allowing for adjustment of the size of the protected area are described. A protective face shield includes a substantially flat, at least partially transparent, waterproof sheet material of a shape configured to extend over the face of a user, where the sheet material includes a portion configured to assist in the modification of the size of the sheet material. The portion may include predefined lines and notches corresponding to different sizes that the sheet material may be trimmed to achieve. An adhesive component secures the sheet material to the face of the user. The sheet material also may include indicium corresponding to a size of the face shield, user specific information, and/or other information.
