Masks have become one of the most popular fashion accessories since the recent pandemic of COVID-19 in 2020. We see face masks all over social media and in our favorite online stores.
Why Wear A Face Mask?
Now there has been some controversy about wearing face masks, but the CDC and WHO have recommended it. It’s also required in businesses (at least in California). And let’s be real, it’s just common courtesy to your fellow humans. I know that I wouldn’t want to be responsible for harming a friend or their loved ones.

5 Benefits of Wearing Masks
- It helps prevent the spread of viruses (including COVID-19)
- It shows that you care for your fellow humans
- You touch your face less frequently when wearing your masks
- Your face is blocked from UV rays, which will prevent aging
- By covering most of your face, your beautiful eyes stand out
My Favorite Face Masks
That last benefit is just a bonus, but still valid. So many retailers are adding these face coverings into their inventory to provide cute, affordable, and easy access to face masks. Here are a few of my favorites.
These face coverings vary in the way of price and quality. Some of them start at $2 for a single mask, or you can get a pack for around $5 each. Now, that’s a deal.
Closing Statement
I’ve been wearing my masks (some homemade and some purchased) since the beginning of the pandemic. Not only does it make me feel better, but I know that it’s for the greater good. Of course, I’m mixing and matching them with each of my outfits.
