favorites?
I likely haven't worn them as much / worn as many of them as most other people.
I wore a duck-billed N-95 and found it pretty comfortable once I got used to it. Like, I wore it most of the time. Only took it off for a few hours at night. Washed it out. Reused it.
But it's a respirator. It had a wire so I could crack the sides to let air in. I liked that I could adjust whether there was any air flow or not and how much air flow there was. It was surprisingly comfortable through exercise and the like, I thought.
But it looks pretty ridiculous. Quacks like a duck. Quack Quack...
I just ordered some 3 layer cotton - non-spun poly - linen... I can't seem to get many of the ones they sell overseas...
Can't seem to get ones with proper replaceable filters for the middle layer...
Thoughts? Preferences? Likes / dislikes?
I have some surgical ones. I don't much like the way they smell... They smell very plasticy. The dye on the outside smells strange. I suspect they might be toxic.
They are very very small. The government got a cheap deal on them, I think, and made them available to the public in the supermarkets. Particularly in South Auckland where the Pacific Islanders have large faces.

alot of my friends have diffrent ones, like flowers, or just basic art designs. I almost forget to wear my facemask, i have black ones, like a case of 50. I'm not really into perosnal mask, i just use one, then toss it. I would love to have a quack quack mask, could annoy some people that don't like me
