on hf i found a mask that uses a mesh instead of plastic
seems so simple and it is cheap
it will breathe better and the dust will not collect like it does on plastic and it cannot get scratched up
never have liked how plastic masks obstruct the air flow
Are you talking about a dust mask or a face mask?
If a dust mask, I've always liked this one:
It's expensive, but I've been using the same one for about 20 years!
it is a face mask that uses a mesh screen instead of clear plastic
There is another good one here that fits very well and has a valve so it will not fog any goggles you may be wearing:
So when turning green wood and it is slinging all that juice you just suck it up?
...and when it slings your gouge, you suck it up too?
Do gouges get slung that often? I only used a gouge when I was 14 and made a somethingorother in wood shop. ;)

They did when I was learning to use a lathe, some fifty years ago. It's something I'll have to re-learn if I ever buy a lathe again.
green will not make much dust right
so the face shield is good then
will always have a regular shield around but will not use it when turning the seasoned stuff
the mesh face mask is good for table saw and lathe with seasoned wood
