Promising review: "Not only is this pattern even better in person, but it’s soooo comfortable. And it also fits me really well (snug enough not to fall down but not too tight either; I have a small head). It’s also a silky material so it’s not hot and feels amazing on your skin. I immediately went online and bought another mask by this designer. Also, the pattern is quirky and awesome. Out of all the masks I’ve bought, this is hands-down my favorite." —Ash Brown

✨If you're looking for a better fit, try these ear savers and mask adjusters from Amazon ($6.99 for a four-pack); I use them on masks where the elastic isn't quuuuite a perfect fit on my face.
✨ If your glasses are fogging up with a mask, people are swearing by this anti-fog spray on Amazon for $10.55.
✨ And if you're looking for a cute, convenient way to store your masks without installing anything permanent, try Command hooks! I've included a pic of my set up below; I just put them by the door so I can grab 'em on my way out. It's also really nice if I've washed a mask and I'm waiting for it to air dry. You can snag a pack of nine small hooks on Amazon for $7.48.
