I'm telling you, that gum stuff they use to hold on prosthetic scars and what-not in stage productions should work WONDERS.

I mean, who cares if you wake up with the pillow case stuck to your face?

Liam, who has woken up on Sunday mornings with worse things stuck to his face.

I have a barber who scuba dives and he rubs vaseline around the rim of his face mask to make a tight seal. Maybe this is the same kind of stuff. After reading the long list of things you shouldn't use near a face mask, I imagine the vaseline wouldn't be doing the mask any good.
