Face Masks - Linen Adult Washable

Here you can get your own hydrophilic and hydrophobic reusable face masks made from Irish Linen, giving you protection when shopping or out and about. Our face masks have many natural benefits to understand when considering purchasing your own mask. 

Are face masks effective?

They have two purposes:

1. irish linen masks are made to catch any coughs or sneezes, and any other droplets that leave our mouths.
2. To reduce hand to face contact.

What type of washable face mask is best?

Irish linen masks are made from natural flax linen, which give them extra features over other masks. Features include;

• Hypoallergenic
• Antimicrobial (antibacterial)
• Naturally wicking
• Gentle on skin
• Hydrophilic
• Hydrophobic

With an outer layer made of an Irish Linen fabric that is colourful and durable. It is held in place by 2 elastic straps which are easy to replace if they get damaged. This makes them machine washable, and strong enough to stand up to regular use.

All the masks are the same design, covering under the chin slightly, and up over the nose, with a vertical seam down the centre. This design proved the best and most comfortable fit.

what type of washable face mask is best? - Our face masks are antibacterial

The most important feature to mention when discussing Linen, is the amount of protection Linen can provide. With our face masks being produced from Linen, they naturally catch and destroy many bacteria that come into contact with Linen. Linen fibers can become a very hostile environment for bacteria that is caught and is destroyed from the source, unallowing bacteria to thrive and breed. Leaving your mask cleaner for longer. 

This applies more so to linen and other materials. Cotton can also be antibacterial, but is only a fraction as useful as Linen. Cotton face masks can only be washed a few before it starts to turn fluffy and loses its structural integrity. Linen has a long list of prominent features, and that’s why it's known as the best material when it comes to durability & soft feeling fabrics.

Our Washable Face Masks are Hypoallergenic

Another fantastic feature to consider is that our Irish linen Masks are Hypoallergenic. What does this mean? There are alot of materials out there that can be very uncomfortable for your skin, giving you rashes and basically irritating your skin. 

When considering materials that irritate your skin. Nylon and polyester are the main culprits. These materials don’t naturally wick moisture away from your skin, causing more perspiration. They also ‘cling’ to your skin, causing more irritation to your skin, making your skin incredibly itchy. These materials don’t utilise the same breathing benefits that Linen, Silk and cotton do.

Face Masks are naturally Wicking

As mentioned above, another amazing benefit to mention is that Linen is indeed naturally wicking, but understanding what natural wicking actually means? Linen is already known as the best material to use when you want to stay cool in the hot climates. With Linen, it's very very breathable, meaning that air flows freely, wicking moisture from Linen and keeping your materials cleaner for longer. 

Why would you wear a Irish linen Mask?

Masks are, admittedly, more common in Asian countries when pollen or dust levels are high. However, there are plenty of uses for them that make them valid for use anywhere;

• They can be worn in cold weather to keep warm.
• To prevent liquid splashes entering your mouth or nose.
• To act as a physical barrier, reducing hand to face contact.
• To catch coughs and sneezes to prevent spreading the cold, etc.

NOTE: You’ll still need to wash your hands thoroughly and use sanitiser. But, when you find yourself unexpectedly in a crowd or having to work at closer quarters than you would like, a washable mask brings some peace of mind. They fold and pop in your pocket or handbag ready for when you would like to use them.
