VIPITH Breathable Gauze Disposable Face Masks, Dust Masks with Elastic Ear-loop and 4 Layers of Protection, Suitable for Salon, Paint, Detergent, Garden, Individually Packaged, 50 Packs (Grey)

First thing's first: this mask is NOT a reliable barrier against airborne particles. It reduces your exposure, but it doesn't come close to forming a seal around your mouth and nose.It's of the same design as the masks you'll see tens of thousands of Tokyo commuters wear every day. And you should know: most aren't wearing masks to protect themselves; they're wearing masks to protect *others* from the cold *they* happen to be suffering from.The only real concession to human anatomy is the piece of wire buried inside that helps it conform to the peaks and valleys of your nose. Even so, if you wear glasses, you'll immediately notice them steaming up as your breath escapes through the top.So, yeah, they're fine. No obvious defects in construction quality. If the stretchy strings are too long, just tie a knot in them. Just don't kid yourself that it'll make you flu-proof.

I have been buying these repeatedly. They were comfortable, and did not have a synthetic smell like some other masks i have tried. My complaint is that now they are no longer individually wrapped, which made them more hygenic, and is one of the main reasons i purchased them. The fabric has also changed, and the new naterial is uncomfortable on my face. I will now have search for new masks that are in individually sealed packets. Pity, cos i did like these.New mask is the bottom one in my picture.

good masks - but i specifically ordered these as i wanted them individually wrapped and these aren't. if it was easy i would return as they are not what i wanted. shame as the masks themselves look ok.

Great for using in dusty environments outdoors and in the garage, especially the garage workbench. Use these as one use only as enough in the pack.

the masks are too loose and there is no way to tighten, my ears are in the right place otherwise a usefull mask if you don't want to be recognised

They work as they are meant to but keep in mind that they are not really suitable for wearers of spectacles. My glasses kept misting up. But that was my own fault. I needed an urgent delivery so ordered these based on a fast delivery knowing that i would have a problem with my glasses. I cut a few air vents in the top and that helped.

soft and comfy but pricy (£50 for 50 masks)

Like the look of this mask. They are individually sealed so I can leave them out at my desk at work so anyone concerned about spreading germs during flu season can take one. Not a germaphobe but for some reason people at my work like to work when they are sick and share their germs. I can't afford to be sick. Simple as that.
