Our Washable, Reusable Green Checker Fashion Face Mask features a 3-layer cotton system that provides nose-to-chin coverage, along with many features that our customers love about our other masks (such as soft, adjustable ear loops; nose-bridge wire for a nice, snug fit; and an inner pocket for PM2.5 activated carbon filters).
As more socially-conscious people embody wearing face coverings and face masks in their everyday life to do their part in slowing the spread of the coronavirus, glasses-wearers meet a trivial conundrum with fogged up glasses.
The science behind why this happens is rather simple.
As we wear our face masks, warm breath can escape from the top of the mask and meet the cooler lenses of our glasses, creating condensation or fog.
A similar effect happens when we wear glasses with a scarf in the winter.
Some ways to prevent glasses from fogging when wearing a mask include improving the fit of your mask.
Luckily, our masks feature bendable metal strips that allow you to mold the mask to your nose and cheeks.https://myglowingheart.com/blogs/news/how-to-avoid-foggy-glasses-when-wearing-a-washable-reusable-face-cover

If you have stayed up to date on the current pandemic, you may have already seen several articles or advertisements for masks or filters pop up throughout your feed.
You may be wondering whether there is an actual difference between using a filtered mask versus a non-filtered mask.The first thing to consider is that since the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is asking the public to reserve surgical masks and N95s as critical supplies for health care workers and other first responders, we recommend using a reusable mask to help preserve essential supplies needed in the medical industry.
The added benefit of doing so is that it is also better for the environment since we would collectively cycle out a large portion of waste generated from the use of disposable masks.
However, according to a study led by the chair of anesthesiology at Wake Forest Baptist Health, B. Scott Sega, MD, the effectiveness of homemade masks can vary greatly based on the material it's constructed with.
While some basic masks can achieve up to 79% filtration, others demonstrated as little as 1% filtration.
The study showed that "the best-performing design was constructed of two layers of high-quality, heavyweight 'quilter's cotton'."
