Though the pandemic has been around since early 2020, masks — of both reusable and disposable varieties — were still widely sought after by shoppers in 2021.
Vaccinations became widely available across the country this year, but the threats of the delta variant and the omicron variant still have people on guard. While mask guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the 50 states have fluctuated throughout the year, masks are still very much a part of daily life, with some states reinstating mask mandates for the holiday season.
Select readers used several of our expert-driven guides to help inform their mask shopping. Below, we dive into the 10 face masks Select readers purchased the most this year.
