Welcome Jer! And thank you for the pictures. I am sorry that I did not respond to you sooner. I have been really tired lately because I have been trying everything to keep my liberty nasal pillows from leaking and I have been missing so much sleep. I only got 3 hours one night. I will definately try your suggestion of taping the nasal pillows tonight. I am really glad that worked for you. I hope it will work for me too. I have read so many people having problems with their nasal pillows slipping. They really need to redesign those things and maybe have a anti slip surface or shorten them.

I know this is an old thread but I think tonight I will try the tape. Maybe it's leaking from the pillows and I just don't know it? I wonder how I can make the stocking tighten up my mask so that it won't leak via the sides when I side sleep? I saw that was a fix that looked interesting.. Will try and pick up some velcro when I go out in a bit.

I found that a touch of Lansinoh (nipple lube) made my pillows stick to my nares well enough to get some sleep.
I just put a teensy bit on my pinky and wiped it around the edge of my nostrils.
Still had a bit on my finger, so I rubbed it into a wrinkle.
