Is there a mask that doesn't irritate sensitive skin?

Thanks, Michgol and Deborah. I would like to learn more about the Bleep system. Pugsy was going to check my latest OSCAR data. Hoping to hear from her soon. Going to the equipment supplier tomorrow to see if there's anything else I can try. The masks either break down my skin or leak to the point where I feel exhausted the next day. I'm running out of steam.

I recently switched from the Dreamwear Nasal cushion to the Resmed Air Touch N20. It's a nasal mask that has memory foam that touches your skin. I don't feel anything on my nose or face. It's light and soft. I am using a liner with this to try and get more life out of the foam. It's currently my favorite mask.

The tech at the supplier recommended Gecko pads and I ordered one (they are pricey). It adheres to the bridge of your nose and to the sides. Went back to my old beneath the nose mask but the sore under my nose is back!! I tried putting a little cotton ball on the spot last night but it didn't stay in place.
I will try still another mask (DreamWisp) next with padding from pad-a-cheek and then I think I am out of options for the cpap masks.

I use the Bleep as well and have found (fortunately) that it does not irritate my sensitive skin. The only skin issue I have is that you have to wash your face then use something around your nose to be sure you have removed all trace of oil, etc. Which means I had to change my routine with regard to moisturizer. As a female of a certain age , with sensitive skin to boot, I tend to baby my dry skin. Now after washing, I use a Bleep wipe (I find those work well for me, YMMV). Then I attach the ports. Once they are securely attached, I will SPARINGLY and gently pat on a light moisurizer, taking care to stay well away from the nasal area (ports).

I am very interested in the Bleep system as well. Does it rest on your lower lip or mouth? It looks like it may, I really don't stuff on my upper lip thats why i have settled on the p-10. Anyone have any advice on this?

No, the Bleep does not touch your lips or mouth.
