Wearing a face mask can feel exhausting. Normally, I run a few errands at once when I need to leave my home, and that means bringing along a face mask. I don’t even think it’s a question, but what do you do when you want to take it off? Normally, I stuff it into a pocket or bag, and then have to fish it out when I get to my next stop. When I stop and think about it, this might not be the best solution. By then, it’s been floating around in there. There is no telling what might get contaminated.

A face mask chain keeps your cloth mask handy, but also helps reduce unnecessary contact with other surfaces. It’s a win-win! Lobster claw clasps easily clip onto the ear loops of your cloth mask and rest around your neck. If you’re feeling stylish, you can also experiment with letting the chain dangle under your chin. Really, it is up to you!
