Our organic cotton comes from Italy. All components in the process are 100% organic, from the cotton plant to the vegetal dyes used for dying and printing. Only natural agents are used in the finishing process, so the water returned to the planet is very clean and this preserves our environment. We use Certified Organic cotton for the inner-liner filter pocket.  Also, we have a selection of designs using allover 100% Certified Organic Cotton on all 3 layers of fabric.

We make our masks from the best quality high thread count  220TC Percale or 300TC Sateen fabrics woven in the finest fabric mills in Italy, Portugal, Israel, and Spain. 100% Cotton is breathable, more comfortable, stays cool around your face and under your chin, and washes beautifully. Our masks are 3 layers, consisting of 2 fashion layers plus an inner layer next to your face, which is organic cotton.  This is the filter pocket.

100% cotton fabric will shrink a little bit, so you will notice a very slight difference, however, we design and cut our masks a bit larger to accommodate for this post-laundry sizing.

You can wash our masks in the washing machine or by hand. Washing Machine: Use the normal cycle, and put in the dryer or hang to dry in a warm atmosphere or outdoors on the line. By hand: Use soap or detergent in warm or hot water to sanitize your mask. You may add a drop of disinfectant or anti-bacterial cleanser for extra sterilization. Rinse with clear water, wring out, lay flat or hang to dry. Our customers told us that sunshine is also a great way to dry the masks because the sun’s ultraviolet rays have a disinfecting effect, and the  mask will likely smell fresh and clean. 

Yes, our mask is fully washable and should be washed after each use. The benefit of our 100% cotton fabric is its ease of care and its quick drying properties. Your mask will be ready for use again after drying.
