Asking for help with FitLife leaks

Post by Trixie » Mon Jun 03, 2013 7:34 am

I took advice from here and ordered a FitLife XL to deal with my jaw drop. For the first hour, it's great! No pressure on my nose, and it's under my chin. Love it! But, slowly, it starts coming unsealed along my jawline. I'm on my back, and haven't moved around. It just comes loose. I have used citris wipes, and washed my face and chin and jawline thoroughly. I tighten the straps, but it still leaks. I want to use this mask, especially since I have been unsuccessful with all others. Suggestions, please?

Hi Trixie,

You might try a mask liner. Karen, with Padacheek.com, custom makes one if I remember correctly. She provides great customer service.
