With lockdown restrictions easing, now is the time to be even more vigilant to protect against Covid-19. 

As many of us start to socialise again, there is no doubt we will be looking for masks that protect us and look fresh.

As part of the fight against the spread of the disease, garment-care brand Skip has collaborated with three local designers to offer South Africans the chance to get their hands on a designer mask created by Rina Chunga’s contemporary label Ri.Ch Factory, ethical heritage brand Fundudzi by Craig Jacobs or Loin Cloth & Ashes by Anisa Mpungwe.

“We believe that, just like the clothes we wear, the masks we choose to protect ourselves and those around us can reflect who we are and what makes us unique. That is why we have decided to partner with these three designers, who celebrate the kaleidoscope of colour and pattern which is the embodiment of African design,” says senior brand manager for Skip Ilze Visser.

The distinctive fabric cloth masks, featuring signature prints from the popular design houses, are available with a qualifying purchase of Skip products.

Cloth masks are a more environmentally friendly alternative to the single-use disposable variety. However, for fabric protective coverings to be effective, they need to be looked after and properly cleaned.

To stand a chance to get your designer mask, you’ll need to purchase any two Skip 1.5L liquid detergents or two Skip 2kg powder detergent packs. You then need to snap a clear, full-length picture of your till slip and upload it here to receive your mask, while stocks last.
