I have extreme environmental anxiety tied to my low vision. I don't do well when i am enclosed or in great open spaces. I was having panic attacks left and right at work wearing a mask . Because the cloth was suffocating me everytime i took a deep breath or took breaths through my nose. These helped me so much . I reccommend them to everyone i come across whom has hightened anxiety with the masks on. The only thing is you have to make your own clips or let the mask hold it in place against your face.

I am a basketball player who practices indoors where we are forced to wear masks. The first few weeks I played normally using those blue cotton masks that they give out everywhere, and that mask kept caving in, causing me to feel suffocated and as though I was being waterboarded. After finding out about these I instantly bought some and have not regretted it since, and playing with these on when wearing masks is a must. The way it works is that its a skeleton to your mask, so that when you breathe in, your mask does not cave in, and stays in place. This creates an air vacuum that sucks air from outside into your mouth. If there was no skeleton, the vacuum would not be created since the mask would collapse as a result. Simple physics and as an engineering college student I appreciate this new invention for these pandemic circumstances. Do buy one if you need to do exercise with masks on, they are a game changer. My 1 negative review is that these mask frames are a little small, but they work perfectly for me, but just wish there were different size options. That being said, the normal ones do work very well despite feeling a little small, but after getting used to you dont feel a thing and you dont even notice that its there.

My mother has a heart murmur and she finds it EXTREMELY difficult to breathe in masks. We have tried probably 20 different masks this year for her and even the thinnest ones don't work for her. I found these and figured I would give it a shot. She was SUPER skeptical at first and gave me the most awful looks when I pulled it out of the bag like "you want me to put that on my face.....?". 🤣 After "forcing" her to try it out she was amazed! She said it's MUCH easier for her breathe and she can now use any of the masks we have gotten her without a problem breathing! She's above average weight with a wide face and they're definitely NOT too small. I saw alot of reviewers complaining that it's too small to fit their face/ over their nose and chin. IT'S NOT SUPPOSED TO COVER YOUR ENTIRE NOSE AND IS NOT SUPPOSED TO GO OVER YOUR CHIN AT ALL!! Seriously people.... learn how to use things before reviewing them.. 🙄

They are made to sit at the end of your nose and come down to right under your bottom lip.

I feel I also should point out that these are made from "hard" plastic and not silicon like most of the other options that are out there. We also tried a version of the silicon ones and they were way too bendy and stick to your face which is bound to make it sweat.

This is a simple little plastic device that fits in my mask easily. it doesn't slip and is reasonably comfortable. First time I have worn a mask with my glasses on and wal able to see at the same time. Also, it is easy to breath because the mask isn't constantly pulling down against my mouth.

These are not perfect because occasionally I will get a little steam on my glasses. But it is very little and usually happens when I move from a cool area to a warmer one. Also my mouth and lips still feel a little try while I am wearing the mask. Neither problem is as bad as it was before I got the little brackets. I am very happy I bought these and I will definitely buy again in the future.

These make it so much easier to have a conversation since your mask isn't right on your mouth and you don't sound all muffled. Other benefit I don't have to speak as loudly. I'm not so sure about being cooler with this because it always feels hot when I have my mask on. There are some clips on both ends of these but I'm not sure how they are used. I find they stay in place if my mask is nice and snug which it should be. Very satisfied with this product.
