Disposable mask or cloth mask - which one do you wear?

Disposable for me - sometimes it makes my nose itchy and the elastic band cuts into

my ear

Disposable give you 'better' protection than cloth washable ones

@jamesle2015 @Lostandalone  Disposable here too. Looks less cute but it is about safety for me over fashion.

Re: Disposable mask or cloth mask - which one do you wear?

What a question for a germophobe like me! At the moment I'm using disposable, but I have some cloth masks on order. There's a delay with them arriving though, and I am quite liking the disposable masks.

@jamesle2015 I haven't got a preferance for either. I have both at home and use both. 

I think the main thing is that you are wearing a mask so well done.

Hi @NatureLover @greenpea @Lostandalone good work for wearing masks too.

@Snowie  Hey Snowie hope you are doing well my friend and that life is being kind to you. Love peaxxx

Re: Disposable mask or cloth mask - which one do you wear?

I'm using the disposable ones but they are making me feel like i can't breathe.

i sweat with it on while working

i tried a material one but it was far too hot with it on

 

Re: Disposable mask or cloth mask - which one do you wear?

I am using both but want to finish my cloth masks as I am upset by the high use and rubbish I have seen around.  I see reusable as environmental rather than fashionable. I have big box of disposables for my son if he needs and will sew one for him if he wants.

Good Question.

@BlueBay  what work do you do ?:)

Re: Disposable mask or cloth mask - which one do you wear?

@Appleblossom  that's the problem with the disposables...people who litter

if everyone did the right thing and put them in a plastic supermarket bag or paper bag and put them in the bin then I reckon it would be ok

but then it would have an environmental impact but I'm no expert

I go through a mask a day as I use them for work and I use on weekend

I wish they were a bit more comfortable though
