Me same with Notdumb but not so long. Usually around 10 days when it becomes smelly when I wore it. I dun change often because I always wore it on my chin and pulled up to cover my nose when I see someone approaching me. After passing I pulled it down again. The longest time I wore that mask is around one hour when I went shopping or barber. My one box of mask bought since the start of this pandemic still got about one third box remaining.

How come masks now so cheap? $1 for 10 pieces? I didn't buy it but becos I was changing something cos the product didn't fit and the replacement cost a bit lesser the shopowner threw 2 packets of disposable masks (10 masks per packet) for free

Looks like the duration for changing disposal masks vary quite greatly among different folks here in sgtalk

The smell comes from your own saliva....

After every usage I will just dispose it, although it still looks clean.
But you never know the invisible viruses could be lurking outside the mask.
Seems wasteful but it is supposed to be a disposable mask after all.

If you read the instructions, it's stated that it should be disposed off after each usage.

I dun trust the effectiveness of those $1 for 10 masks. I only used those I bought earlier at around $50 for one box and those given free by Termasek and MOH when my family members went for vaccination. At the rate I am using, they shud last me a life time.
Another thing is when I go crowded places, I change my disposal mask to N95 mask before entering. So next time if you happened to see someone changing mask at the entrance, that's me (NVY).....
