FWIW, now that N95 masks aren't hard to get, I bought some a few months ago and holy crap they're so much better than the KN95s I had to use during COVID. I basically went maskless at times because the KN95 mask just leaked so much that I couldn't wear them. No matter how well I adjusted the metal nose bar, air leaked up when I breathed and it "tickled" my eyes so much I just stopped wearing them. I have since stockpiled a few hundred 3M N95s just in case.

- HankB99 2y agoI used double stick tape (AKA "boob tape" on Amazon) to reduce leakage around the bridge of my nose. It helped reduce fogging of my glasses a lot. I guess it's called boob tape because boobs like me use it? I didn't see any need to wear a mask outdoors (except in a crowded circumstance) or when driving.
