Has anyone using the new Brevida mask felt that they had to use lanolin on the cushions.
Thank you in advance for any information.

No I meant lanolin. That a lot of people use with the P 10.

Lansinoh, purified lanolin; otherwise known as nipple grease.

I used the P10 and other nasal pillow masks for the past several years; the P10 was my favorite. Lansinoh was often necessary to alleviate the irritation of the pillows moving about. However, having used the Brevida since the latter part of January, I have yet to find the same problems with it - the pillows are very stable and move about much less and the headgear can be worn with less tension. As a consequence, the pillows cause significantly less irritation and the problems that call for Lansinoh are seriously diminished. On the other hand, if one felt the need, I see no reason Lansinoh could or should not be used - there is no difference in the material of the various pillows that would indicate otherwise.

I didn't feel the need to use the Lanolin with the Brevida but then I don't use it anymore with the P10 either.
The Brevida cushion is so soft and pliable that I don't think it will be rubbing the nose and causing problems.
