Welder's face shields do not have the "gasket" pressing against your face, they are closer to a hat, with the way they distribute the load onto your head and how they otherwise do not touch you.

There are all kinds of different shield setups.

For example, the one I link to below is a two piece setup where goggles clamp to your face and then a wide shield hangs from the goggles:

There are all kinds of attachments you can get that can bring the mass into that 500g neighborhood. The ones from the previous generation were easily 500g.
