Cotton face mask recommendations

Looking to buy some extra masks. Must be cotton, must be washable.

Those made by local mums near me seem to have doubled in price overnight so was wondering where you guys get yours from.

Any recommendations?!

M&S?

Got mine from here: Etsy shop

Price has stayed the same, they are cotton and handmade, really top quality. I have been very impressed.

I recently got these from Amazon and they’re the best fitting ones I’ve bought so far. They have a nose wire, pocket for a filter, adjustable ear bits, and are shaped to go under the chin so they don’t gape at all. I’ve got loads from various places, and these are by far the most comfortable to wear for any length of time.

I've got sets from GAP, Poundland and TU at Sainsbury's. The GAP ones have a nose wire but are quite small (the non-accordion ones anyway). The TU ones are accordion types but no nose wire. Both are nice prints and not too pricey. The Poundland ones are cotton and probably the best fit. Not so pretty though.

Nice ones from Sainsbury's.

I got 5 for £9.50 in M&S. cotton, washable and I don’t get as hot with them as some of the others I have.

I've tried many types of mask (glasses wearer) and the best one I have is from Mabel & Mu. They have a nose wire and adjustable elastic.
They usually make dog and cat accessories but now make masks too

I've got some of these from etsy

Really recommend. They do a non adjustable version too and also Christmas designs!

@Jaffacakeinmypocket love their dog collars!!!!

But I went for plain black from amazon- good value and no one will argue over which ones they want and great reviews, thank you @40somethingJBJ

I’d love to be able to afford to shop local @purplejungle but money is very tight right now/always 😩

These are great as mini snoods, masks and hair bands

I’ve got some from here - www.etsy.com/uk/listing/874598524/3d-octagon-face-mask-cotton-handmade
Lovely material and fit - I find them easier to talk in , I’ve also got some of the rounded shape too.
