Mask up. 60 times.
You know what’s great for everyone?
Wearing a mask.
You know what’s also great for you?
Wearing a mask in the winter.
You’re protecting your lips from dry air and chilly gusts. You can slip deeper into public anonymity without looking out of place by simply pairing with a hat and some sunglasses. Your face stays warmer. Your breath is less chilled.
Oh and remember back when we’ll all just worried about quaint old cold and flu season? It was mostly extra hand washing and giving dirty looks to sniffly coworkers, but throwing a mask in the mix helps kick that caution up a notch, even if you’re just going to use if for the occasional crowded public place.
So about these masks in particular…
They’re disposable, which is nice, even if just as backups for your usual reusable options—you know, like the one that actually looks kind of cool and the one with the funny thing written on it that seemed clever online, but actually makes you pretty self-conscious while out and about.
They’re also individually wrapped, making them great for stashing a handful at a time in glove boxes or coat pockets or kitchen drawers.
And last but not least, they’re N95s and there are 60 of them, which are probably the two bits of information you care about most anyway, except for maybe the price, of course.
Which is $29.
Not too shabby, for five layers of sneeze-catching, face-hiding power.
