love these virtue code masks
i adore these virtue code masks. they are so pretty and feel so nice. that said, i only wear this brand mask in "safe" places like with my friend after she and i each self isolate for two weeks so we can then safely visit since we live in separate cities, or if i'm going to get drive up orders, and now outdoors since the national usa no mask outdoors for fully vaccinated people has been enacted.<br /><br />to be honest these maske are normally nice feeling lightweight fabric. one layer! don't be fooled by the 3 layers listed. the second two layers are very open weave apparently inferior grade. they provide no protection whatsoever. however they do have a filter pocket and i always wear them with a filter. ALWAYS!  otherwise you might as well not wear a mask at all.<br /><br />i have both the virtue code pleated and this style mask in fabric. the pleated ones are one lightweight layer with a very similar weight filter pocket and come with one filter. so order a package of filters also. the little flat ones. i have none of their neoprine masks. i have a smallish face. the earloops make it adjustable so it fits nicely. i just feel good and happy wearing these masks. thanks to virtue code for making pretty masks at a sensible price but please please use two true layers at least in the masks then the filter pockets.<br /><br />my friend and i ( her mostly) made over a thousand quilting fabric 2 layer masks, some with filters and some with the heavy filters sold at better fabric stores. those are all my workhorse masks. but if i just want to smile while choosing my daily masks, i always smile when i see the virtue code ones.
