Leaks with full face mask (another problem)

I use the Ultra Mirage Full Face mask. Before anyone chimes in, I have really tried nasal masks but have a really hard time not being able to breathe through my mouth (panic attacks if I can take a deep breath through my mouth).

Anyway, the big problem I am having is that as the night wears on, my face gets oily (I wash before going to bed) and then I seem to get leaks everytime I move. The other problem is that a small amount of condensation builds up in the mask (I've got the humidifier as low as I can take it) and that causes leaks. I'm falling asleep okay and things are fine but soon everytime I move I have to reposition the mask to prevent leaks

I'm seriously considering a Hans Rudolph mask but does anyone have any suggestions? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Do you have a heated hose, to help with the condesation?

Jeanne, I too have very oily skin. Not only do I have to wash my face thoroughly before I go to bed, and shave, but every morning I must thoroughly wash my activa's seal. If I didn't do these things there's no way the mask would seal night after night. The oils from your face slowly break down the material that are used for the seals.

As far as the condensation, I think ozij has the correct. Either a heated house or one of the hose socks that are for sale, should fix that.

Let me know how the Hans Rudolf works. I'm thinking about getting one of those myself.

Good luck,
BP

Thanks for your responses. I have a "sock" that goes over the hose to my machine. The problem is the fact that the air I'm breathing is moist and that adds to the moisture causing the leaks.

I'll definitely let you know how the Hans Rudolph works for me.
