Speak-Out About Issues That Matter While Staying Safe With Social Justice Face Masks

Everyone knows that wearing a face mask dramatically reduces the chance of catching COVID. In fact, recent studies have determined that the chance of spreading the infection to another person is reduced at least 65% when face masks are worn. So, wearing a mask continues to make health sense during these difficult times. As long as you pick the right one and wear it correctly.

Here’s a quick reminder of things to look for when choosing the best mask for you:

1.Correct Fit. Does the mask fit completely around your face without being too tight or restrictive? Masks should cover both your mouth and nose while fitting snuggly around the sides of your face without any side gaps or openings.

2. Multiple Layers. Although any mask offer provides some protection, the ideal Justice Face Mask provides more than one fabric layer in order to repel infection molecules.

3. Breathability. Look for masks made of tightly woven cotton, or a cotton-polyester mix. Try not to wear masks made out of wool, since wool may not provide as much filtration as cotton masks.

4. Moisture Absorbency. Another benefit of cotton material masks is that they are more absorbent, therefore keeping perspiration off your face. In addition to providing a greater level of comfort, they are more sanitary.

5.  Simple, Secure Application. The ideal mask should be easy to put on and have secure elastic ear closures or ties.

6. Washable And Durable. Ideal masks should be washable and durable in order to provide long-term protection. And they should be washed regularly.

 

So, what else? Is there anything other than proper construction and hygiene to consider when choosing a mask? For a growing number of people—especially those who want to stay active in advocating for social issues—the answer is yes. And they’re getting creative.

Masks have become more than just a health tool. They are doubling as a tool for change with graphic, message masks. Especially masks that advocate for the environment and for social justice issues. These graphic message masks are being worn more and more as the need for change grows. For many, masks aren’t just protective tools or even fashion statements, they’re powerful free speech activists wear in the ongoing fight for needed social change.

The next time you’re thinking about getting a new mask, remember what to look for. Then choose one that not only protects and looks great but advocates for the issues that matter to you.
