This year has changed a lot of things, right from our daily routine to the way we communicate with others. Several rules to follow, no doubt we can’t break the rules, but we can change the way we follow those.
Masks are a must, they have become a staple in our everyday life. The traditional cloth masks block our ability to read the facial cues and see the expressions on others’ faces, mostly they keep us longing for the days where we could exchange unmasked smiles in public. If you are one who loves to spread and see smiles, clear masks would be a great choice during this corona time. They are stylish yet practical. There is a wide range of colors, types and materials available in clear masks.
WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT CLEAR MASKS?
Clear masks are not very different from the traditional cloth masks but they have different maintenance needs. It will be better to hand wash a clear mask and then wipe the plastic sheet gently. Fogging of the plastic is a common issue in clear masks , it can be dish soap or anti-fogging sprays. There are tutorials on YouTube available for that as well.
- It is better if we look for fog-free masks at shops to avoid extra problems.
- Make sure you buy durable enough or reusable clear masks so as to avoid buying packs of it.
- Look for the material good enough and if it comforts you while breathing.
- If you sneeze or cough while wearing the clear mask, make sure to wash it immediately as there is no material to absorb the droplets and it will only make it worse.
Most of the clear masks have options, they either come with a cloth mask with transparent panel in between or are entirely made of clear plastic sheet held in place by straps.
