Quick Answer

The Saalt Equality Mask is a reusable face mask with anti-odor and microbe-resistant properties, making it a practical accessory to keep in your period care kit. Use it to cover your face during cramps or when out running errands, and wash it regularly to maintain hygiene.

Why Add a Mask to Your Period Care Kit

The Saalt Equality Mask isn't a menstrual product, but it fits naturally into a reusable period care routine. When you're on your period, you may want extra comfort and protection when heading out. A clean, breathable mask can help you feel more at ease, especially if you're dealing with cramps or fatigue.

The mask features a Swiss-made HEIQ HYPROTECHT treatment that provides anti-odor protection and makes it microbe-resistant. This is especially useful if you're wearing it for extended periods during your cycle.

What to Know Before Using It

The Saalt Equality Mask is not a medical-grade mask. It is a reusable cloth mask with 2-ply fabric, a wire top frame for a snug fit, and adjustable ear straps. It is designed for comfort and ethical sourcing, not for high-risk environments.

Because it is reusable, you will need to wash it after each use. The anti-odor treatment helps between washes, but regular cleaning is still important for hygiene.

How to Use the Saalt Equality Mask for Period Care

  1. 1. Wear the Mask When You Need Extra Comfort: Put on the mask when you're out running errands or feeling sensitive to smells during your period. The wire top frame lets you adjust the fit over your nose, and the adjustable ear straps help keep it secure. Common mistake: Wearing the mask too loosely. Adjust the ear straps so the mask sits snugly against your face without gaps.
  2. 2. Remove the Mask Carefully: When you take off the mask, handle it by the ear loops only. Avoid touching the front fabric to minimize transferring any germs or oils. Checkpoint: If you have to touch the front, wash your hands immediately afterward.
  3. 3. Wash the Mask After Each Use: Machine wash the mask in warm water with a gentle detergent. You can air dry or tumble dry on low. The anti-odor treatment remains effective through multiple washes. Common mistake: Using fabric softener or bleach, which can degrade the fabric and the anti-odor treatment. Stick to mild detergent.
  4. 4. Store the Mask in Your Period Care Kit: Keep a clean mask in your period care bag or Saalt Travel Kit so you always have one handy. Consider having a second mask to rotate while the other is being washed. Checkpoint: If you store a used mask without washing it first, the moisture can encourage bacterial growth. Always wash before storing.
