Whether you are upgrading your current mask, buying a stocking filler for a friend or loved one or just looking for a festive pick-me up, we have you covered. Check out our favourite face masks on the market available to buy now.
Restrictions have been eased in time for Tier 1 and Tier 2 cities across the nation to enjoy a spot of Christmas shopping and outdoor mulled wine drinking (at a social distance, of course) this festive season. Regardless of where you are and what your tier restrictions are, our virtual diaries are filling up and we are excited to plan our Christmas outfits; even if that is just knitwear, coats and boots for a walk with much-missed friends.
But to do all of the above you’ll need a new accessory this winter; the humble face mask.
It remains essential to wear a face covering to keep yourself and others safe and will be throughout the Christmas period and into next year. With some semblance of traditional festivities expected, albeit outdoors, why not invest in a beautiful mask to complement all of your favourite party looks.
For months a face covering has been on our ‘don’t forget’ checklist of phone, keys and wallet, but many of us bought just one style months ago, not knowing how long we would be required to wear one.
So, whether you’re simply adding to your existing mask rotation or looking to invest in one that makes more of a sartorial statement, treat yourself to one of the stylish face coverings from our edit below.
Slick statement styles from Christopher Kane and Sunspel are perfect for the minimalist; great with plain knits and jeans for December and throughout spring.
Feminine printed options from Erdem and Rixo would make a great gift for floral-lovers and look great with an embroidered cardigan.
Linda Farrow’s gold flecked style is the ultimate mask for anyone going all-out this season, it’s the perfect finishing touch for sexy sheer tops, tight leather trousers and oversized earrings.
Here’s our edit of the best masks available to buy now.
