Mascara (o Muaskar) è una città dell'Algeria nordoccidentale, capoluogo della provincia omonima. Il nome deriva dall'arabo mu'askar, che significa "accampamento militare". In epoca coloniale, Mascara fu la capitale dell'emiro Abd al-Qadir, leader della resistenza algerina contro l'occupazione francese.
