As of today, 48 states have some type of statewide or local mandate in place requiring residents to wear masks in public. Whether you like it or not, masks are now a part of our daily wardrobe.
I’ll confess- when COVID-19 first became a pandemic, I was in denial. I thought quarantine would only last a couple of weeks. I didn’t bother buying any “cute” face masks. I figured it would be a waste of money to invest in something I’d only be wearing for a short time. Instead, I stuck to disposable masks from Target as well as a couple masks that my mom sewed for me.
4 months later, I finally caved. If I’m going to be wearing a mask every day, I want to do so with style! I ordered several cute masks from a few different retailers. Here are my favorites so far:
Ace Fashion USA
Out of all the face mask retailers I’ve come across, ACE Fashion USA is by far the best. Not only do they offer a wide range of colors, they also offer both lightweight and standard size masks.
These masks are very comfortable and breathable. Unlike some of the other masks I’ve listed, they also don’t move around or fall off when talking (something that is pretty common with many of the masks I’ve tried). The lightweight masks are a great choice to wear when working out, as they allow a good amount of airflow.
LoveLinax
If you’re looking for a mask that is a bit more trendy and colorful, this Etsy shop is for you!
I loved these masks so much, I went back and placed a second order. They offer more coverage than the masks made by ACE Fashion USA, so they’re a great choice if that’s one of your concerns.
The only negative I’ve noticed with these masks is slippage while talking. If you’re going anywhere where you may need to talk to someone for an extended amount of time, I’d recommend choosing a different mask.
Vici Collection
Vici Collection is one of my favorite online stores for affordable, trendy fashion- and when it comes to face masks, it lives up to it’s reputation!
As of right now, Vici offers four different trendy patterns for face masks: tie-dye, camo, leopard print, and star print. Since Tiger King made me avoid almost all things leopard print, I ordered the first two.
Vici’s masks are very secure, which is great! They’re also high on the comfort scale. However, they allow slightly less airflow than the other two options listed above. I wouldn’t recommend wearing these at the gym or doing any outdoor physical activity.
Amazon
Finally, Riah Fashion is an Amazon distributor that carries several cute face masks in a wide variety of colors and patterns.
These are the only masks I didn’t personally order, but they have high reviews. They also offer free shipping. The other mask retailers above don’t offer free shipping unless you hit a certain dollar amount, so that makes Riah Fashion a great choice if you’re only ordering one or two masks.
