The Project’s Susie Yousseff reveals the surprising upside to wearing a face mask in public

Susie Yousseff headed out to do a spot of shopping on Sunday with her face mask on.

‘Got asked for ID at the bottle shop,’ she explained on Instagram Stories alongside a photo of her booze. 

‘When the guy saw my license he said, “Sorry, couldn’t tell with your mask on”. I replied, “Getting carded is a treat”. What? I’m on old lady,’ she wrote. 

Susie then confirmed that her ‘Grenache is heaven’.
