I need one that allows me to breathe, doesn't cause maskne, and doesn't fog up my glasses. Has anyone found such a thing? I keep buying masks, and I hate them all.
The KN95s probably have the best seal and keep moisture off my face the best, but they're a little too tight. The Uniqlo masks fit the best and are the softest, and are triple-ply.
Do you wear glasses? My biggest complaint with all masks is that I can't see because the glasses fog up. Joah Love is having a sale -- I'd happily buy them if I knew I could walk around without being blind.
Me too, I have been walking around without glasses. The fogging up is worse in winter. The only mask that they don't fog up with is N95. I have one that I wear to my doc appts.
I wear a neck gaiter like this instead of a face mask. It worked a lot better in stopping my glasses fogging up. No idea if it actually does anything to stop COVID, but whatever at this point. https://www.mscdirect.com/browse/tnpla/15137425 . I tried the Uniqlo ones, they didn't help with fogging.
Apparently the jury is still out on neck gaiters, but they are better than nothing, and cotton is better than polyester: https://www.webmd.com/lung/news/20201011/neck-gaiters-may-protect-against-covid-19-spread
I wear a neck gaiter when I go running, that way I can quickly pull it off if I'm all by myself and re-mask if someone is approaching. And I wear it double ply.

I like the Respokare N95s as they have enough of a clip to stop glass fogging. Their K95 clips are not long enough to stop fogging.

^^and I hate them all too!
Thank you. I have tried the N95's and I don't like them because they're not adjustable. I will try Uniqlo. I tend to like things I buy there.
I love my joahlove ones.
