We all need to wear masks — so here's a running list of designers producing them.

Amid the coronavirus pandemic, face masks and hand sanitizers are highly sought-after pieces of merchandise these days. With the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention advising people to wear face masks or cloth face coverings while out in public during the coronavirus pandemic and to wash their hands frequently, it can be tough to find the resources you need on a regular basis.

The CDC guidance recommends that everyone over the age of 2 years old wear a face covering in order to prevent the spread of COVID-19. It may not protect the wearer, but it may keep the wearer from spreading the virus to others. Wearers should wash their hands before putting on their face mask, make sure it covers their nose and mouth and that it fits snugly against the sides of their face. Keep it on the entire time you're in public and avoid touching it; if you do touch it, wash your hands.

Don't feel discouraged by empty shelves week after week in brick and mortar stores when the online retailers have plenty of different options available at your fingertips. Whether you're looking for a simple style of face mask or one with a little more structure and durability, there are nearly endless affordable options just waiting to be shipped to your doorstep.

While you should leave the N95 respirators and surgical masks for health care workers and essential workers who need them most, there are a lot of other options for a face mask and face covering, from functional to kooky to stylish.

Below are some good options for pre-made, non-medical face masks, as well as a few resources for hand sanitizers. Continue on to see our recommendations!
