Surgical face masks have gaps on the sides of my face like this.
Then I tied a knot at both sides but it felt uncomfortable.
After talking for 5 mins, the whole mask ended up covering my nose only

The worst about this knot is that it also tightens the ear loop.
My ears hurt alot with the knots.

Someone passed me a few N95 made by ST engineering and I find them to be the easiest breathing N95 masks (with orange straps).
But seems to be in high demand and quite expensive too., so didn't manage to buy them myself.

To prevent the mask slipping and gaps, you can try using eyelash tapes or 3M transpore tapes (not sold in Spore as only the more sticky micropore is available) to tape/seal the upper perimeter (around the nose bridge).

I dare not go out with micropore tapes on sides and nose bridge.

Ya, painful and uncomfortable at the end of the day.
I usually don't tie the knots too tight.

My friend uses this type called DuckBill face mask.
I bought from Japan Home before and was selling $2.40 per piece at that time.
It feels like wearing a big paper cup on the face.
But my friend say good because it does not ruin her make- up
And no gaps on the sides of her face.

My friend's colleague uses this from Japan
No gaps on the sides
And the ear loops is super soft
But looks funny because the V-shape pulls down all the way
Makes a person face looks very long

I find the N95 masks most comfortable and sits perfectly on the face with no gaps after altering the head straps to ear loops. Only thing is it cost a lot more.... ![Big Grin Big Grin](https://sgtalk.net/images/smilies/biggrin.png)

I tried before.
Very tight where no air can go in or out.
Is this for humans?

My Sao- sao recommended this Singapore made face mask.
She said the melted rubber on the mask is not so far apart
Thus, it does not create big side gaps
Ear loops is very very comfortable
Furthermore, it is surgical masks
PASS, lah!

One habit I learn is never to let my mask leave my face once I wear them. I would avoid eating at hawker centres. Also, I will always treat my hands as a dirty hands full of germs and would not let my hands touch my mask after having worn them. Should I need to handle the mask for some reason, I would always sanitise completely my hands using the bottle of alcohol spray I always bring along with me when I go out.
I believe many people catch Covid because they not only do not know how to put on the mask properly but they also do not know how to handle the mask after putting them on.

I think I know what my sao- sao meant.
The ear loop strapes are not melted the the top and bottom ends.
So it is level to the ears
Thus, no big gaps at the sides
Comes in 195cm width ( XL size suitable for men) that my brother uses, too
