They are non PPE ones so this is how them and many bigger brands are getting around it.

@cassius I have sat there and watched these start popping up, if you look at the terms used, plus on page description - actually these "fashion masks" are doing NOTHING Covid will pass through cotton - and if its washable and does not have the filtration system in place then its a MONEY earner. Most are using *Not For Medical Use* to get around things:

I also handmake face masks with fabric and a pocket for the filter. I DO NOT claim medical grade. How can I restart my ads again without getting FB to deactivate by account. Www. sofreecreations. com

No no, you can't sell MASKS on FB or IG. Big difference.

@seay41640 is the “big difference” in reference to these masks to actual masks or between FB and IG? Not following.

I'm being cheeky. Oftentimes things sneak past FB's radar with respect to products. I think, if we are indeed not allowed to advertise masks, this is one of those instances.

Nothing about it is medical related. If you have to wear one wear one of theirs. You don’t have to tell people what they already know just give them what they want. I have to educate them on what they’re already educated on. Why your ads keep getting banned.
