Nieman Marcus has some that cost as much as $85 for one face mask. IMO they look nice but not that nice. Some have glitter or are otherwise designed for evening wear.
I suspect I'll tend to lose them, so I'm aiming for an interesting variety to coordinate with clothing that aren't just florals or boring solids.
I have mixed feelings about the copper infused fabric masks that are advertised as I'm not sure I want tiny little bits of copper in my washing machine. I'm avoiding them for now.
Ugh - masks that smell bad. Where were they made?
Also, what's the rationale for copper infused masks? I know it has some antibiotic/antiviral properties, but I'm skeptical that COVID particles floating through the air would manage to land only the copper and not pass through the fabric.
