I had begun making masks for friends and family soon after the Covid debuted. I had already made quite a few using copper wires and pipe cleaners, neither of which I was completely happy with. Both were cumbersome to insert and keep in place, a couple wound up protruding from the fabric, wasting a good mask. My friend in Ireland had read about your product, which I ordered and have been using since. I had been wearing a couple of early masks and began having issues with the nose wire keeping ...

I have used these but they aren't as convenient as the contour pieces because they need to be "covered" in bias tape or another piece of fabric which makes them more time consuming.

I’m really glad I ordered these straight mask inserts! I have quite a few masks that needed something to keep my glasses from fogging up. I received them very quickly and just in time for this cooler weather. No more foggy glasses for me! Thank you!

Very nice product. Just what I was hoping for. Easy to attach to masks already made. They shaped easily to fit and washed up perfect. Thanks for a great item!

This fits undrrmy masks and allows me to talk and me understood in my work. No more mark in the mouth. It does fog my glasses 👓 more but not much. I love it.

Super convenient and quality mask supplies. I've bought the nose wires several times and this is my first time buying the ear loops. They're stretchy with good resilience and they don't fray. If I make more masks (I've made at least 300 so far) I'll buy my supplies here again.

These straight nose pieces work fine with the masks I already had since my masks had a slot for them to go into so I didn't have to sew them in. They work great!

These nose pieces for face masks really do help! Just a hint to you as you pursue additional sales, showing photos as per the recent email I received would be most helpful to first time buyers! I attached one of the “curved” pieces to a mask, but found that it wasn’t quite right. With the aid of photos, I know I’ll get it positioned correctly. Thanks again!

These work best with the elastic sold by DIYMasks but you can thread through your own elastic that is braided or 1/8 inch. It takes a strong thread, but it can be done.

The material that these are made from is exceptional. It doesn’t irritate the skin on the ears, is very stretchy and lasts through many washings. The one downside is that I would prefer them to be an inch longer.

I’ve purchased these strips several times now. I’ve made quite a few masks for family and friends. I always get the straight one-I like being able to bend them myself. I just make the mask a little longer from top to bottom, hand stitch the strip in place, then fold the top over it. The quality of these strips is what keeps me ordering from Advanced. I love that these are stainless steel, so I can wash them without worrying about rusting. The edges are smooth—no worries about scratching or...

I am a professional theatrical costume manager. Covid put most of us out of work - we turned to making masks to not only protect our loved ones - but to create income to support ourselves. These nose wires are superior to every other product I tried. They fit perfectly into 1/2" bias tape casings. The model I purchased also had small holes for stitching directly to masks - which allowed me to easily apply to masks that I purchased for personal use. The nose guards arrived quickly and are th...

I have made numerous mask, three different kinds, a flat one that ties, one that I started using pipe cleaners, and my last design that I use your straps, and helps with a lot less fogging glasses. This mask has been my favorite, I don't have a good picture that shows the elastic straps, but they are soft, don't pull on my ear, extremely comfortable. I have been making mask since this pandemic has started and been giving mask away. Thank you for making a comfortable strap!

Love the metal inserts for masks. They are easy to sew into the masks and hold up well after washes. So much better than the pipe cleaners I was using before. Quality product, shipped quickly, great service.

They are as great as everyone says! Worth the money to get good quality! And they work great for not fogging glasses 🤓 And happy to support Veterans making them! 😃 The Wilson’s

I am usually fine with my masks not fogging up my glasses at work but grocery shopping is another story. I sewed this onto a few of my masks and my glasses did not fog up even once while shopping!

I ordered both the straight and the curved metal nose pieces. I have decided the best way to use them is to sew it to the outside of the masks I make as this is the most comfortable way to use it.

Received these straight mask inserts very quickly. I made masks for friends and family without inserts before ordering these, and the ones with the inserts definitely are more preferable since you can 'customize' the fit to your face. The inserts are lightweight and easily molded to nasal contours. They are a definite 'plus' as a performance enhancement feature in my home-crafted masks. The fact that the mask can be molded helps prevent fogging up of glasses when wearing them.

I started making masks with regular elastic but found it to be uncomfortable around the ears. The stretchy strips are perfect, just enough stretch without being too tight and they are comfortable for a much longer period of time. This is my second order and doubled up this time!

I bought the shaped strips & love them. I make masks with a channel for a strip, so I don’t sew them on & can remove them when I wish. But when I’ve taken them out, they go right back in because my glasses don’t fog up then. Highly recommended!

This was my third order of 100 pieces. My family, most of whom wear glasses, really like the way the nose pieces keep the mask smug to their noses and help keep the glasses from fogging

Bought home made masks from friends who didnt know to put nose pieces in. These helped so much and I now can wear the masks and not fog my glasses

This was the second time I purchased this item. One I got the hang of putting these on, all my masks without adjustable ear pieces are now equipped with these. They hold well and stay put. You can't beat the price!

I realized very soon after making my first face masks that I needed some sort of stablizer for the nose so they would stay in place and heip eliminate the fogging of my glasses. I tried various wires, aluminum pieces, etc. until I found your site. I use them with confidence - they stay put (thanks to the small holes) and they don't break. I tell all the other mask makers I know about them. Thank you!

I'm so glad that I found your site and supplies. I've ordered twice and am ready to place another order. (It seems that this virus isn't going away anytime soon.) The nose pieces have worked really well and since getting your elastic and toggles making the masks is quicker and they work better. The only thing I might suggest is to make some un-cut elastic available. I have to make masks for my tiny grandchild and ear loops just don't work for her, elastic has to go completely around her head. ...

These are great. I have several grandkids, and they make the difference in whether they will leave their masks on or not! Love that it resolves the issue of masks fogging up! Great product!

The wire is stiffer than other ones I've used. The length is good because we can keep it tight enough against the cheeks and the glasses don't fog up. I ordered one set and I need to get more.

The mask inserts arrived in a timely manner and I was delighted with them! Mask making has become a hobby (I've made about 30 so far), and I was frustrated with the aluminum inserts I was using. They bent too easily and broke after 2 or 3 wearings. When I saw that yours were steel, I knew that I had to try them out. I'm very pleased. Also, I didn't have to poke holes in the ends for sewing (something I had to do for the aluminum inserts). I plan to exchange the inserts in all my masks. Thanks fo...

I love that I can buy any mask now and attach it too them so they don’t fog up my glasses when I wear them . They make it easier to form it to my face and it stays in place . Thank you

Product looks great, however my flat elastic cannot be used, my fault, didn't realize I needed the cord/string type elastic...will need to go find some! I had a piece of the cord elastic and with that the product works perfectly.

I've bought a total of 60 to put into masks that I've made for family and friends. They are sturdy, but sufficiently malleable. One of the most frequent comments I receive is, "finally, my glasses don't fog up". That's a good thing!

It seems I just keep making more and more masks for my family......almost 100. All but the youngest want the metal on the nose piece. I sew a small casing into the lining of the mask so that it's secure and not seen. They all seem to like the way they fit. Plus, you guys are very fast getting orders out. I just wish I had thought of buying in"bulk" in the beginning I've used so many. Thanks for this great product.

I have sewn these on several of my masks that lacked good support at the nose bridge area to help keep my glasses from fogging up. They work great! Thanks.!

This is my second order of the curved mask bars. They hold up very well and everyone who has one of my masks say they are one of the most comfortable they have worn. I insert the bar into a tube in my masks and they just stay put, through washer and dryer. Easy to reshape after laundering or for a new person using a clean mask. A very good product!

These steel nose wires are sturdy and a little stiffer than the aluminum ones. They are stronger and I’m hopeful they will last longer. I wish they had an adhesive strip on one side.

I've made many masks and tried lots of ways to secure the area around the nose. This product is great! It was easy to order and the shipment arrived quickly. Thanks for making such a useful high quality product.

The inserts are simply the best for a nice fit over the bridge of the nose--especially for those who wear glasses. I've shared some of my supply and getting others hooked on them also.

These silicon discs are a great choice. For easiest use you will need a small crochet hook ( I use a lace hook) to get the elastic through the disc, but I suspect there are other solutions. The discs stay in place and are very comfortable. They can be machine washed and dried just fine. This was my second order and I have both white and black -- a very good solution to the sizing issue!

Ive been using your nose pieces for the last eight months, or so. Ive made over 150 masks since the beginning of the pandemic and have been very satisfied with product. I like that I can sew them on outside of masks for folks that had masks without. Your service is excellent also. I’ve got my orders quickly.
