I've been wearing CVS' small surgical mask with an adjustable cloth mask on top bc it's what I had available. but I;m getting anxious with the amount of exposure I'm forced to have recently, so I want to upgrade when I get paid. I've had 3M Aura Particulate Respirator 9205+ (is this the same thing as n95?) in my bookmarks for a long time, are they good and do they fit small people? what else should I consider? I would prefer something reusable/low waste but effectiveness is a bigger priority... i am too fried to research what works and what does not and to what degree especially with all the covid misinformation out there so thank yall knowledgeable people in advance

If this is what you are referring to, yes they are EXTREMELY tight and small. I think I have a pretty average sized head and it was horribly uncomfortable actually. And yes those are n95

Seconding these if you want small good quality ones.
