7. I use miniature claw clips and just put the elastic inside and pull it around back and hook the

other loop in. When I remove my mask I just squeeze it and it comes right off with the elastic loop inside so I don't even touch the mask.
The mask fits snugly, leaving no gaps. I also can use the clip (with the mask attached) to hang it up.

8. Very clever. I've also been pleased with some mask extenders I ordered.

Takes the pressure off my ears, and gives a snugger mask fit.

9. Those are nifty!

Luckily I'm rarely out needing to wear a mask for more than a few minutes, but if I had to wear one for an extended period of time those would sure save the ears.

13. We've been doing the pantyhose overmask surround ring that was on NPR. Makes a big difference.

Going to do this trick you posted and put the pantyhose over it.
