We tried two new face masks – and finally found a made-in-SA one that works with glasses

We may have just found the one mask that doesn’t fog up your glasses — but you’ll need to get used to it.

Two new mask companies approached Business Insider South Africa and asked us to put their brands to the test. So we sent our journalist out in the real world to see if they stood up the rigours of modern life. He decided to take them on the one experience that a mask must stay on, no matter how uncomfortable they can get: an aeroplane flight.The Copper Fresh mask sits comfortably on the face.

Fast forward to 2022 and the drop off zone at Lanseria airport. Making our way from Johannesburg to Cape Town the pinkish mask drew more than a few curious stares. What immediately caught my attention was how similar it looks to your ordinary disposable blue surgical face mask.Much like the majority of masks you see out on the streets, Copper Fresh's mask is manufactured with simplicity in mind.

Another positive is that the masks are re-usable and can be worn for up to several weeks without needing to be washed. If the mask material is intact, you are protected. If your mask gets dirty, simply get a slightly damp cloth, and rub the dirt off lightly. Unfortunately, for those of you that wear glasses, this is not the mask for you. Even when securely fastened it fogs up quickly and this will be an issue.
