The simple truth is that Ichigo doesn't use his hollow mask because Kubo simply did not care about it or forgot after a while. There is no point in speculating whether he has it we will probably never see it again, and if we do the question is answered. Case Closed.

It's actually even easier. Kubo used the Fullbringers arc, to eliminate the necessity for a mask.

After all the Fullbringer power was connected to the powers of a hollow. And seeing that Ichigo kept some of his Fullbringer powers, as shown by his X tattoos and remnants of his fullbring. Seen even easier when he used his bankai.

All that white stuff on him, on his forearms, under his Shihakushō, it was already his hollow and shinigami powers working together. So Ichigo from that point on, no longer needed a mask.

And now that he finally has his full shinigami/hollow powers under his control and not under the control of old man quincy, if you've been paying attention, to all the white stuff on his Shihakushō, then you'd know that he's already using his hollow powers.

Most likely not to their full extent. Seeing we haven't seen him use Ceros, Sonido, or high speed regeneration. But that might be something to do with his current level. I personally believe he's not even using his Shikai but only Zangetsu sealed form, but even if he is, it might be abilities he only gets access to, if he uses Bankai or Resurreccion.
