Well it's not at all a surprise that a system that checks face features will let you in if you recreate those features sufficiently well.
Is face id supposed to be the most securest thing ever? No, it's just another data feed for the secret service. Is it though secure enough in everyday situations? Probably yes. Certainly more secure than a PIN.
For users to whom high physical security actually matters won't use an iPhone anyway. -
Biometry is never secure. Security is having a private information that authenticates you to the system. Biometry isn't private. You can be seen, you leave your fingerprints and your DNA everywhere you are. The most secure biometry would be unlocking your phone with your private party since they're private 😏
Why not! 😂

Oh well, it was just a countdown until somebody finds a way to create the mask.
"On Friday, Vietnamese security firm Bkav released a blog post and video showing that—by all appearances—they'd cracked Face ID with a composite mask of 3-D-printed plastic, silicone, makeup, and simple paper cutouts, which in combination tricked an iPhone X into unlocking."
"But they say that it was based in part on the realization that Face ID's sensors only checked a portion of a face's features, which WIRED had previously confirmed in our own testing."
