FFP2 protective masks- Box of 10 pieces - CE certified, with elastic bands and adaptable nose clip | 5 filtration layers, protection for exterior and interior

I bought these as I have to commute into London twice a week. As other people aren’t wearing masks on the hour train journey I wanted to protect myself a little better.People have said that they have holes and so don’t feel safe - they aren’t really holes, the mask is fully enclosed, these areas just have fewer layers. I stood on the platform of the station in the snow and very little breath was visible.I have a very small head and face, so I need to tie knots into the straps, which is fine and pretty standard. However, it means that the mask isn’t completely comfy - I can feel it rubbing slightly under my eyes. However, it’s not a real issue, just a slight niggle and the benefits outweigh any very slight discomfort. I also have a small nose and the first wear was annoying as the wire has been folded in half for packing it makes it pretty uncomfy and less “secure” around my small nose. As the wire is so rigid it’s not easy to adjust whilst on - this might also be an issue if you have a larger nose. I’ve since taken to straightening the wire completely and bending around my finger - when I then put it on it’s easier to mould around my nose. I know this is secure as I’ve tried with with glasses and for once they didn’t mist up - hurrah!On the plus side. It is more pleasant to wear on a long journey as my face doesn’t get so hot. I feel safer than when wearing surgical masks, and unlike cotton masks, it doesn’t get sucked in when breathing, which can make me feel claustrophobic.I sometimes add a drop of essential oil which then makes it really quite pleasant to wear a mask, and recently had a happy accident - sucking on a jakemans cough sweet made the inside of the mask like a steam room filled with menthol - great if you’re feeling a little stuffy and leaves your skin tingling pleasantly!

I bought these masks after watching a tv program where I discovered the type of mask I've been wearing which has a 'valve' in it offers little or no actual protection from airborne particles . These take a little getting used to as the 5 layers and no valve make it seem harder to breath but after a short period of adjustment I now find them more comfortable, the fit is good and because there is more space in the mask it doesn't get as damp as an ordinary cloth ones. The only down side is although they can be worn on more than one occasion they cannot be washed so need to be replaced more frequently than the triple layer cloth ones available .

Nice fit

I had to buy this product whether I wanted to or not in order to travel on public transport in Germany in October. Obviously regarded as much better than face masks worn in UK during the pandemic.

Adullt size and fits OK on my large head but no room to spare. Men with a very large head will find them tight. Importantly they are 'proper' masks with an FFP2 rating, assuming that you want them to be effective raher than just for show. This can be felt in the mask material, they feel substantial. The nose piece bends around my big nose just fine. I could breathe OK when wearing the mask and have found myself cycling along still wearing the mask, having forgotten to remove it after shopping. A bit of a 'beaky' profile but then again, nobody ever looks cool wearing a mask.

These masks are not individually wrapped and are in 2 sealable packs of 5. I bought these for a long haul flight and would have preferred to have them to be individually wrapped so have decided to separate them into small bags so that I can easily get a new one out without risking contamination. It is a matter of personal preference and I cannot remark on how they will wear yet but am hoping that they will give some protection while travelling.

Travel advice from easyJet was that PPF2 masks were required, so bought a couple of packs. Each pack of ten comes with two sets of five in separate pouches which makes it easier for carrying spares.Despite some comments did not have any issues with straps breaking off, even when used with ski helmets on the lift queues; ie stretched further than normal use. The nose clips were durable and did not break at the mid point.The masks fitted very well, being tight against the face, but with a good extended space in front of the mouth to aid breathing. The downside of fitting well is that you do feel your breath is recirculated somewhat, but I guess that's the purpose to limit breath escaping.Did find the straps start to get uncomfortable after a while, as with most non fabric ones.Overall very pleased and would recommend.

Seem to be made for quite a long face, come right up under my eyes onto the under eye area, I’m an average height uk woman and normally FFP2 masks fir ok, with these they feel well made but I’m struggling to get a proper seal
