Abstract
A face mask apparatus configured to more closely adhere to the face of the user such that it is fitted to the bridge of the nose to minimize any vision obstruction by a wearer. The face mask is equipped with a nose bridge segment, a mouth segment, and a chin segment, each disposed in serial communication at obtuse angles. A nose bridge support is disposed within a material of the nose bridge segment and is configured to ensure that the mask remains in position during movement of the face. Additionally, a secondary support is present within the mouth segment to ensure the mask is fitted to the face of the user for comfort and to ensure efficacy. The material of the mask is configured to filter bacteria, viruses, pollen, mold, dust, and other debris, and is preferably removably affixed to the face of the user via retention straps.
