So, last night, I loosened those straps up a bit, and while my nose was fine, I didn't get anywhere near the same nights sleep......Also, my wife said that the machine was a LOT louder than it has been, so I think I must have been leaking more than normal...........The sleep report indicated that also...................I guess there is a delicate balance to it.
Mask liners make a big difference in comfort for many people.

Look for pad-a-cheek.com - one of our members who makes them.

I wanted to recommend liners but the OP uses the F&P Eson and I didn't see any for that mask. Maybe someone familar with that mask can direct to ones that work.
