Get ready to see more silly selfies.

Facebook is buying the company behind one of the most popular apps in the App Store, Masquerade. 

Masquerade's app lets you overlay playful, animated filters over your face using your phone's selfie camera. The effects range from Leonardo DiCaprio at the Oscars (right) to a monkey, and they're fun to play with. You can record video in the app or take a still photo to share on other social networks.

Expect Masquerade's face swapping filters to show up in the Facebook app eventually. The social network also plans to keep Masquerade operational as a standalone, free app, as well as integrating its technology into Facebook.
