You just keep them out of direct sunlight, powder the inside and keep them dusted. They should last forever.

After i'm done wearing my masks, I wipe the inside out with a damp cloth to clean out the sweat. Then I dry it out completely and powder the inside lightly with corn starch. If you plan on wearing your masks a lot, I wouldnt use anything with talc. Talc particles are bad to breath in. I have actually heard you can get lung cancer, if you are exposed to it too much, and I read that corn starch is more absorbent than talcum powder anyway.

Talc powder...baby powder is OK but not as good.Masks won't last forever..it's a finite substance but it's very stable and durable. Latex will last a lifetime if you care for it

A lifetime is not forever. Latex will eventually turn to dust like anything but you can take care of them past their usual 15-20 years if you use proper care...though most won't even own a mask that long.
