Brand isn't so important as material, construction, and fit.

Polypro is a good choice. Stay away from cotton. Depending upon the temperatures and wind speeds you expect, a good thick wool balaclava works well too.

Especially if you are very active in cold temperatures, a breathable balaclava may be preferable in order to wick moisture away from you skin.
