Hi Nina1824, try wearing face shields instead. Much easier, no additional breathing problems but still protection. I have these and feel more comfortable.

I have bought face shields instead, because I found it a struggle with the face masks I made.Much easier to breath with the face shields plus your eyes are protected also.
