Some disposable face masks are suitable for medical use and prevent you from breathing in or exhaling airborne germs, while others are designed for use in cleaning and construction settings and can keep you from inhaling smaller, non-infectious particles. Type 1.Dust face masks are usually fairly lightweight and protect you from breathing in household dust, paint mist, and other larger particles. They can be used when you’re painting around the house or cleaning a dusty room. 2.Surgical face masks are meant to protect your surrounding environment from any germs or bacteria that you might expel. They’re usually used by medical professionals to create a sterile work environment, but you can wear one when you’re sick to prevent those around you from getting ill. They’re not designed to protect you from inhaling airborne bacteria and germs, though. Features 1.Earloop closures feature two elastic loops on either end of the face mask. You place the mask over your nose and mouth and then secure a loop over each ear to keep it in place. These types of masks are easy to put on but may shift around more than other options. 2.Headband closures feature a single piece of elastic that stretches from one end of the mask to the other. You slip the elastic band over the back of your head to hold the face mask in place. These types of masks are extremely easy to put on and don’t move around much when you’re wearing them. 3.Tie closures feature one to two ties on each end of the face mask.
