How can I keep my child’s glasses from fogging when wearing a face mask?
Little Lives PPE's 3-ply ASTM Level 3 Face Masks recently received the Editor's Choice award from Good Housekeeping for the best face masks for kids with glasses(https://www.goodhousekeeping.com/health/g37160033/best-masks-for-kids-with-glasses/). The key to decreasing fogging is maximizing fit. Ensuring the mask is sized correctly, contouring the wire nose bridge to the face, and tying knots in the ear loops can all help reduce air leakage from the mask and foggingMy child has a really small face, do you think the Little Lives PPE mask for kids will fit?
For really small faces we recommend tying tiny knots at the end of the ear loops on both sides to facilitate a tighter fit on the face and to reduce gaps. If shortening the ear loops does not create a snug enough fit, an alternative is to use what the CDC calls the "knot and tuck" technique which creates a nicely sealed fit with our 3-ply surgical mask as follows:

Are Little Lives PPE’s masks and face shields FDA approved?
Little Lives PPE’s masks and face shields have not undergone the FDA approval process. However, our masks are manufactured in an FDA registered facility and are FDA listed under the current FDA EUA (Emergency Use Authorization), for use by healthcare personnel and the general public. Our face shields comply with the specifications of authorized face shields as described in the U.S. FDA issued EUA, April 13, 2020
Is the LL95 for Kids NIOSH approved?
There are no NIOSH approved N95s for children. The LL95 is not NIOSH approved. This is because NIOSH (National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health) only certifies products for use in the workplace.

What is PFE?
PFE stands for particulate filtration efficiency. This measures the percentage of small particles (such as viral droplets) that are blocked by the mask. Our masks filter >99% of particles as small as 0.1 microns!
What is BFE?
BFE stands for bacterial filtration efficiency. Bacteria are much larger than viruses like the coronavirus. Masks that have >99% BFE block out most particles that are bigger than 2.5 µm, please take note that it is a mask’s PFE, not BFE, that tells whether it can filter out tiny infectious viral droplets.
How can you tell how much a mask filters?
Medical grade masks are required to undergo rigorous standardized testing to demonstrate their ability to filter out particles. Make sure you know your mask's filtration capacity or PFE and choose the highest PFE level to help protect you and your Littles.
