Yep, this! This is what I'd slot into the category of "reasonable deviation from lore," which is perfectly fine, IMO -- in moderation, naturally.
If you do feel the need to explain the magic behind it, there's a lot of approaches you can take. Some other ideas include recovered Allagan technology (possibly not designed for this purpose), a remnant of a Voidsent embedded in the mask (as imps, at least, can glamour themselves), a modified magitek disguise unit (as featured in a Costa del Sol GC leve), an enchanted Thaumaturgical curiosity (as it reads your internal Aether), inscribed arcanima geometries, etc.
