Silk Comfort Mask |
 This
wonderfully comfortable mask features luxurious, double-layered
silk. Soft and lightweight, it is a perfect mask to wear while

your favorite animal. It brings instant relief from non-toxic
particles such as dust, pollen, mold, dander, lint and soot.
The patented sleek construction of this mask holds the fabric away from the nose and mouth, so
that you can talk easily.
All masks have adjustable ear loops and a pliable nose bar for individual fit. When you're not wearing it, it
conveniently folds into your pocket or purse. The Silk Comfort Mask is hand washable and latex free.
This beautifully hand sewn silk mask is made in the USA in Chicago, IL.

I have had a similar mask before from Allergy catalog and it wore out. Am very glad to have it again as it saved me a lot of asthma attacks due to indoor and outdoor molds. Very good luck with reg washing in the past.

 silk mask
Reviewed by: Credence Tilden from Clarkston, Washington
This mask works great for working in the yard to reduce pollen issues as long as its not too hot. However, while its more breathable than masks you buy at the store and throw away, if its hot your face still gets extremely hot and you end up dripping sweat. I love that its washable and works so great for pollen, but I wish it helped with smoke too. I live in a very dry hot climate so I need something more breathable that also helps with smoke as we have alot of fires too. Really like this for early spring, but need something for those hot summer monthes as it gets over 100 degrees here and something for smoke too as I have severe allergies to both.

Easy to wear, does the job
Reviewed by: Very sensitive to pollen from Nahunta, GA
First-this mask does indeed filter out the allergens. I need to walk my dog for 1-2 hours and finally, this mask has got me and my dog back up and running in the woods. And, the mask is lightweight, easy to wear, extremely comfortable to the point where I forget I have it on, is totally odor-free. To wash, I just use a little soap under the faucet and hang up to dry. The elastic straps are easily adjustable and fit behind the ears. Highly recommend this mask.

Customer Q & A
Q1: What size particle will this filter?
A: It will filter down to about 0.7 microns, though the efficiency is somewhat low for particles this size. Here's a quick breakdown of the filtration.
0.7 = 73%
1 micron = 93%
5 microns = 100%
In general, the Silk Comfort Mask filters 99% to 100% of particles as small as 2 microns. This particle range and higher will be where it is most efficient. This covers a wide variety of pollen, dander and other particles.
Q2: Does this mask have metal?
Does the cotton mask with metal include nickel? I have fragrance-mix, rubber -mix, ad nickel allergy.
A: I apologize for the delay. I was pretty certain it did NOT have any nickel, but I wanted to hear back from the manufacturer before answering you. No, there is no nickel in any of the metal components of the ICanBreathe masks.
Q3: Are these masks ok to sleep in? If not, is there a mask you can wear while sleeping?
A: We get asked this question frequently. For most people, the air flow is not restrictive enough to impede breathing while sleep, particularly since respiration rates dip while asleep. However, we always suggest a measure of caution of wearing while sleeping since they are soft masks that could potentially cause problems for some people. Many people do sleep in this mask, but this is a personal choice that each individual wearer must make.

Silk Comfort Mask
The Silk Comfort Mask describes itself in its title. It really is a
very comfortable mask. The silk mask is lightweight and
breathable. My face actually didn't get hot while wearing it.
The mask is also very convenient. It folds up very tightly and
could fit in your pocket or purse. Perfect for those who need or
would like to wear a mask while traveling or doing outdoor
activities.
What I like about the Silk Comfort Mask
- Extremely comfortable and soft
- Unlike most masks, it is not hot, very breathable
- Washable
- Can be easily folded for traveling
- Effective
- Very lightweight, not bulky
What I did not like about the Silk Comfort Mask
- Must be hand washed for best results and durability
- This isn't so much a negative, but the Silk Mask is best for light to moderate activity
In summary, I give the Silk Comfort Mask 4 out of 5 stars. By far
this is one of the most comfortable and effective masks that I have ever
used. I would recommend this mask to anyone who is tired of being
hot and uncomfortable by face masks. The Silk Comfort Mask does fit snugly around the face, much
like a hospital mask. With regards to the flu virus, it does act as a barrier, but is not NIOSH approved.
