These KN95 masks are now in stock for less than $2

By Lucas Coll June 19, 2020

Although wearing face masks for protection is common in many parts of the world, it wasn’t until recently that Americans (and Westerners more broadly) felt the need to don personal protective equipment due to the coronavirus outbreak. And while restrictions are starting to loosen and things are slowly opening up again, it’s just as important — and perhaps even more so — that we take reasonable and responsible precautions to keep ourselves and others safe.

If you’ve been hunting around for personal protective equipment and are having trouble finding any still in stock at reasonable prices, then HonestPPE has KN95 masks available right now for less than $2 apiece.

Due to sudden increases in demand (which included many people panic-buying and hoarding personal protective equipment), surgical masks have not been easy to find for much of the year. This also led to unfortunate price-gouging practices by some private sellers, but HonestPPE has thankfully stepped up to the plate to offer cheap, readily available PPE such as these KN95 masks which are not available for the lowest price we’ve seen yet.

These KN95 everyday-use masks are an excellent alternative to certified N95 and KN95 masks, which are almost impossible to find at reasonable prices right now due to the demand for them among medical staff and other professionals. Although they’re uncertified for medical use, these soft, multi-layered KN95 masks provide a similar level of protection to certified masks and are a step above the cheaper three-ply surgical masks.

This makes HonestPPE’s KN95 masks ideal for individuals in higher-risk categories than the general populace as well as for anybody else desiring some extra protection during daily activities such as shopping, working, or running errands. Multiple layers of soft, skin-friendly, non-woven fabric are effective to protect your airways from airborne pollutants that you’d rather not breathe in — and since it’s allergy season, they’re good for that, too.

HonestPPE has KN95 in stock and ready to ship within 24 hours from Texas so you don’t have to wait too long to get your PPE. Each KN95 mask rings in at just under $2 — the cheapest price we’ve seen for these — and are available in packages of 10 or more (bulk orders can also be arranged).

If you've been shopping for personal protective equipment (PPE) face masks, you know high prices and inventory shortages factor in what you can buy. Mask types vary in their protection level, comfort, and cost. Amidst the general market confusion, family-owned and Dallas-based Well Before (formerly Honest PPE Supply) has emerged with personal protection equipment (PPE) inventory in stock at the best prices we've seen, including the KN95-Everyday Use mask for only $1.95 each.

Well Before's KN95 - Everyday Use mask is an affordable alternative for casual use to more expensive and harder to find certified KN95 masks. Well Before's KN95 -Everyday Use masks are not recommended for medical use because they don't have FDA and CE certifications. They do, however, give you better protection than square cloth masks or 3-ply surgical disposable masks. On sale for at $1.95 each in lots of 10 or more masks - marked down from $5 apiece - KN-95 Everyday Use face masks are in stock and ship in 24 hours.

Unfortunately, with face masks in such high demand, we've seen our fair share of masks at prices which seem a little inflated -- and worse yet, way too many scams. But that's not the case with Texas-based Well Before (formerly Honest PPE Supply); the company currently has KN95 masks in stock and is selling them for just $3 apiece.

That's a fraction of the price we've seen elsewhere -- some charge as much as $10 per mask. While these are not the same masks as preferred in a healthcare setting (that's an N95 mask), they offer similar protection -- filtering out about 95% of contaminants. And, these KN95 masks are FDA and CE registered. If you're not concerned about FDA's approval, Well Before sells these uncertified KN95 masks even cheaper at $2.20 apiece.

ClipDart is an on-demand barber app aimed at people of color

ClipDart founder, Kyle Parker.

It’s funny how we can take certain things for granted, like haircuts. Over the course of more than 50 years of living in different cities, different neighborhoods, or even visiting different countries, not once have I ever worried about whether I could find someone who could cut my hair the way I liked. Then again, I’m white.

But if you’re a person of color, it can be an entirely different experience. That’s what Kyle Parker discovered when he left his hometown of Chicago in 2013 to attend Grinnell College in Grinnell, Iowa, population 9,031. While 24% of Grinnell College’s students identify themselves as people of color, fewer than 10% of residents of the city of Grinnell would say the same of themselves.
