QIs it okay to use the mask sheet all day, every day?

APlease use it when necessary, such as when going out or talking to people. We do not recommend excessive use of disinfectants for viruses, bacteria, etc. when it is not necessary. Being too clean can weaken your immune system, so we recommend using it when necessary.

QSince the mask sheet needs to be wet before use, won't mold grow inside the mask and make it unsanitary? (Is it okay to air out the mask after each use?)

AThe silver in the mask sheet reacts with water to generate silver ions. The silver ions prevent the growth of viruses, bacteria, fungi (mold), and algae. There is absolutely no need to hang out the mask. On the contrary, we recommend wetting the mask sheet with water, as this will increase the generation of silver ions.

QWhen using it for 30 consecutive days, do I need to wet it every day?

ASilver reacts with water to generate silver ions. When you start using the mask each day, wet it with water, squeeze it out lightly, and then place it in the mask. After wearing the mask, the silver reacts with the moisture in your breath to generate silver ions inside the mask.

QWhen I asked a question before purchasing, I was told to "store it in the airtight bag it came in," but is it best to store it at room temperature in the shade?

AThere is no problem with storing it at room temperature. You can store it either way as long as it is indoors.

QCan I dispose of it as combustible waste after use?

AThere is no problem. After the one-month expiration date, if you put it in water like the Ag+ antibacterial cut sheet, silver ion antibacterial water will be generated in about an hour. It is effective for about one to two months, so please try it. Putting it in your shoes also helps prevent odors.

QThe pure silver mesh in the mask sheet gives off a metallic smell.

AThe metallic smell is not caused by the metal itself, but is thought to be caused by human sebum. The sebum components around the mouth use metal ions as a catalyst, and the sebum changes into a chemical called 1-octen-3-one, which can cause a metallic smell even in very small amounts. Although the smell may vary from person to person, rest assured that it is not harmful to the human body as it is in very small amounts. If you are concerned about the smell, wash it with dishwashing detergent each time before using it. Washing it multiple times a day will not shorten the expiration date.
