I already thought of pantyliners when I first got the Swift and it didn't work. But good idea (so I thought, too). I finally did come up with a cure, these foam toe bandages that are working great. But not everybody suffers from these lines. If you ask Rock & Roll, he'll tell you he's never had them. Just we lucky ones, I guess, who get them.
This is a link to a thread all about what has been tried already: viewtopic.php?t=4003&highlight=swift+breeze+aura
The Swift I found to be the easiest of all the interfaces I've tried, which were the Oracle, Activa, Breeze and now Swift. It is only 2.5 oz., and you can attach the hose on either side and wear it either in the down position or secure it to your headgear, which is only straps, but the side ones have this neoprene on it to act as a stiffening device, which is the culprit, I believe, causing the lines on your face.
Nonetheless, I was not switching to another device, and I knew that, so I got creative and finally found something that has helped enormously. Janelle totally made her own mesh cap headgear and doesn't use the straps that come with the Swift.
Look, I always include this caveat: What works for one person or what one person swears by won't work for the next person or that peson will hate it. My girlfriend urged me to get the Oracle when she heard I was going onto CPAP swearing it was THE interface of the future. Used it one week and it now sits in a box in my bedroom.
I suggest you look at the photos of it and see if you think you may like it. I am including a link to a thead that I posted before I made my decision to buy the Swift, asking for feedback about it, the Breeze and the Aura. Maybe you can get something from all the people's replies.viewtopic.php?t=3684&highlight=swift+breeze+aura
Good luck.
