Face mask that isn't hot?

Has anyone found a face mask that's cooling? Or at least not too hot. I found the reusable so hot and I only had it on for a few minutes. I'm thinking maybe a sports one but are they any better than the regular cotton ones?

I got cheap disposable ones off eBay that are fine. A fiver for 50 so proper cheap crap but they fulfil the brief.

I also got cheap disposable ones, bought from Amazon, £9 for 100, I would be quick though as price will go up if they become mandatory.

I have these and they are not hot at all

I'm in Italy where we have to wear masks. I bought washable cotton ones but they are just too hot now. Just about everyone is wearing paper surgical masks and they are much better in the heat.

I've found these two layer cotton ones comfortable, even in hot weather.

Thanks, I'll take a look at the suggestions.

Paper surgical type masks are much cooler because they are a notoriously bad fit. That cool air you are breathing has come in from the edges. The warm air you breath out also goes out via the edges.
