CPAP & Cosmetics?
CPAP & Cosmetics?
Is there any issue with using facial cosmetics and a CPAP mask? Like moisturizers, exfoliants, etc, standard cosmetics.

Yes. Wash your face before bedtime.
Most products that claim to restore youthful skin --don't work,, so do not waste your money.
Sleeping with a nice clean face is pleasant, anyway.

Your mask will slide around, plus whatever chems are in the creams may deteriorate the silicone.

I wash and moisturize, but not just before bed. Then, just before masking up, I use a soft cloth to wipe away any surface oils or excess moisturizer. It makes cleaning the mask and straps easier.

Use your oils and creams in the morning. Clean face before masking up.

Re: CPAP & Cosmetics?
I have an extensive routine I do before bed which includes serums and moisturizer and I've had NO issues. Really, do what you normally do. Any decent products will not be greasy. If you use high quality moisturizer it will be absorbed by the time you go to sleep. I cleanse and do all my other products an hour or so before sleep.
