Face masks can be found all over these days. Ever since the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention recommended wearing them to prevent the spread of COVID-19, many fashion retailers started designing and selling their own face coverings. Due to high demand, though, many are selling out or have long shipping times. In fact, the best face masks we tested at Reviewed, Atheta’s Everyday Non Medical Face Masks, are currently on backorder.
If you’re looking for a face mask that will be delivered to your door fast, Amazon is a great place to look if you’re a Prime member. While there are some questionable third-party sellers on Amazon, you can still find reliable ones that will suit your face covering needs. We scoured the entire site to find the most popular and highly rated face masks you can buy right now. It’s also important to note that while these masks are not medical grade and don’t offer the best protection comparatively, they do make good cloth face covering or can be used as a cover for medical masks. Plus, many of the highly-rated masks on Amazon are more simple and may not be the most stylish ones on the market, but reviewers can vouch for the quality and the efficient shipping of these 10 cloth face masks.
1. An affordable pack of 50 masks
Reviews: 1,781
Average rating: 4 stars
Material: 100% Jersey Cotton 3-Ply
If you’re looking for a ton of masks for the whole family that don’t have a ton of flair, reviewers recommend this 50 pack. The masks come in a simple cream color and are made of 3-ply 100% jersey cotton for several layers of protection. Reviewers particularly recommend these ones because of the low price (about $0.60 per mask) and how comfortable they are, though some note needing to tie the back loops to keep it secure.

2. Floral masks with a bendable nose piece
Reviews: 544
Average rating: 4.5 stars
Material: Cotton with bendable nose piece
One of the biggest struggles with face masks is finding one that fits snugly around your face without leaving any gaps. That’s why reviewers rave about these floral masks, which have a bendable nose piece for a more secure fit. Shoppers claim that this mask is comfortable and made with a thick layer of fabric, but warn that it may be hard to wear for long because of this.

3. A gaiter that’s easier for exercise
Reviews: 3,338
Average rating: 4.3 stars
Material: 88% Chinlon/10% spandex/2% nylon
As a runner, I know the pain of constantly pulling up and down your face mask before you pass a pedestrian. That’s why many athletes prefer a gaiter, which is light, breathable, and made of sweat-wicking fabric. Reviewers like using these gaiters for more active use, rather than daily wear as they are quite thin and therefore less protective.

4. Black masks for simple everyday wear
Reviews: 3,459
Average rating: 4 stars
Material: 2-ply breathable cotton
Another simple mask option that reviewers love is this black 3-pack from New Republic. Made of 2-ply cotton, these masks are soft and breathable and have stretchable ear loops that should fit most people. Additionally, reviewers love the fact that these masks are made in America and that they have a secure fit.

5. A mask designed with several layers
Reviews: 963
Average rating: 4 stars
Material: Nylon with carbon filters
For a heavy-duty mask, reviewers like this one from AstroAI, which was designed with dust protection in mind. It has a four-layer filter, adjustable nose piece, and both an elastic ear strap and velcro strap on the back of the head. Despite its thickness, the mask also has two one-way discharge valves (that are still covered with a layer of fabric) for easier breathing. Reviewers say it does fog up glasses and is comfortable to wear throughout long shifts at grocery stores or other essential businesses.

6. Masks that spread the love
Reviews: 1,754
Average rating: 4.3 stars
Material: Cotton
They say to wear your heart on your sleeve, but you can literally wear one on a mask. This subtle detail makes a typical black mask a little less boring and spreads a little cheer in the process. Reviewers like how soft these cotton masks are, and though they are thicker than they appear in the image, they are still breathable.

7. A grey mask with adjustable loops
Reviews: 259
Average rating: 4.5 stars
Material: 2 layers of cotton
If you’re worried about not having a snug fit on your mask, find one with adjustable loops—like this popular one on Amazon. That way, you can tighten or loosen the mask for the size of your head. Happy customers say that these masks are soft and comfortable and that they like the simple look of them.

8. Black masks with a pleated flair
Reviews: 1,094
Average rating: 4 stars
Material: 100% cotton 2-ply
While these masks are simple, they have some pleats in the design that add some extra pizzazz. Made of 100% cotton, the pleats also allow the mask to stretch over larger faces for a better fit. Reviewers do note that these masks are on the larger side, but say these ones are a great basic option.

10. A mask made from wetsuit material
Reviews: 1,514
Average rating: 4.1 stars
Material: Cotton/Neoprene
Neoprene is a material typically used to make wetsuits, but it is also a great mask material. It’s water-resistant and breathable and the second layer of cotton in this mask makes it soft as well. Reviewers like that these masks are American-made and say they are form-fitting and comfortable enough to wear for a few hours.
