How do the nasal pillows handle when you actually have a cold?
I can't stand them when I have a cold so I use my leaky Quatro full face mask. NOTHING is allowed to touch my nostrils when I have a cold!
Other people feel differently though. It is very personal.

Crafty,

That is a Respironics EasyLife, which is what I use. I had that mark, too, until I learned (reading here) that the mask was too tight. I figured out how to adjust it properly, and no more marks. Good luck with your therapy.
