Countless companies are now making non-medical grade face masks for daily protection from COVID-19 — and they couldn’t be easier to find online right now, especially with the current crop of after-Christmas sales.
Demand for the best face mask options — especially the best breathable face mask options — has soared in recent months, in part because the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention now recommends wearing personal protective equipment (PPE) masks in public settings to slow the spread of COVID-19. PPE masks are usually made from breathable fabric like cotton and differ from a surgical mask and N95 respirators that experts say should be reserved for health care workers who are caring for the sick.
In times of crisis, it’s heartwarming to see companies we love and support giving back using the tools and skills they know best. Nordstrom, the largest employer of tailors in the country, has trained its alterations teams to make face masks to distribute to health care workers, while designer Christian Siriano’s small team of couture sewers is making 2,000 cloth face coverings per day. Dior has similarly pivoted to making face masks for those on the front lines in France. Burberry is using its global supply chain network to fast-track the delivery of 100,000 surgical face masks to the U.K. National Health Service’s medical staff and Prada began producing face masks and medical overalls at its factory in Italy.
Beyond that, lots of brands are selling directly to consumers — including some that donate face masks to health care workers and others in need with every purchase — or offering a free mask with every purchase. FYI: The CDC guidelines recommend washing your face mask regularly (with detergent, in the washing machine); not touching your eyes, nose or mouth when removing them; and washing your hands or using hand sanitizer immediately after taking your face mask off.
Many retailers have started offering face masks that are alternatives to true personal protective equipment (PPE), which are disposable and predominantly used by medical staff. These everyday, reusable options include face masks for adults, face masks for kids, clear face masks, face masks with matching outfits and face masks for exercising. Well-known apparel and fashion brands like Levi’s, J.Crew, Athleta, Old Navy, The Honest Company, Forever 21, Gap and Kim Kardashian West’s SKIMS sell their own lines of masks as well. Additionally, check out ET Style’s curated list of face mask accessories.
We’ve rounded up many of the companies that are producing and selling adult-size non-medical face masks to help fight the global pandemic (see face masks made specifically for kids here). Ahead, shop ET Style’s picks of the best face masks you can buy online.
