Face Masks That Don't Suck and Where to Buy Them

Face Masks That Don't Suck and Where to Buy Them "Image Credit: Joah Love As terrible as this global pandemic is, at least we're living through it during the time of internet. Thanks to Al Gore, we can browse through endless face mask options from the comfort of our own quarantine (not to mention order food, supples, and Pinterest far too many banana bread recipes). Sure, it may take a little longer than usual for the masks to arrive, but we don't have to leave our homes to buy them, which we couldn't do without masks anyway. So, yay? Advertisement Face masks, however, are not all created equal. You've probably discovered that it isn't easy finding a mask that provides proper protection, fits well, is comfortable, and is actually a design you'd wear. I asked friends, strangers, and the people of the internet for their input on the best face masks, taking into account all the above requirements. I was able to try several of them for myself, so I'm only including the ones that don't suck. Because let's be honest, a lot of them suck.
