I've been using "baby wipes". They're soft and gentle, can't imagine they will harm the mask. Any one else try this?

I've used these cpap mask wipes for some time with no problems. Great for face oil or makeup left on mask. Have not had any yellowing or deterioration. Mild citrus cleans generally, not a disinfectant! Would recommend.

You can loosen the goggles to make them less "suctiony" but the plastic seal may still be more suction than you want. It would definitely be worth a try. The mask is easy to adjust.

You can if you want! I usually just wash my face with some soap prior to using the face mask

It could get messy since it's a cream. I think wearing it for 25-30 min is enough to feel softer and hydrated skin. I really like this mask but note that as you have it on the cream starts to dry so if you leave it overnight it may (idk I've never tried it) get too hard and I think is a good idea to let your skin 'breath' overnight so I would stick to the directions.

Referring to a previous answer, please don't use microfiber for baby wipes. Microfiber can really irritate the skin! Flannel is my fabric of choice for baby wipes, but terry washcloths work great as well.

I use it on mine and my son's (9mos) face. It does leave a white residue so I just try to put it on a bit earlier than right before we swim which seems to help the residue soak in and not appear white.

I think that would be too harsh on your skin. To be completely honest I bought my pmd off amazon and the suction isn't powerful at all. I even used it on my sensitive skin like my wrist and it didn't even make a mark... I was ripped off most definitely. I suggest you buy from the actual website. You could even get it cheaper than on here with a coupon code. Best of luck.

Charlene, you might want to use a towelette if you are not using it in thew shower. I use mine in the shower which it is designed for. I got it to try and get my kids to wash their face more often. I actually buy a facial scrub at the Dollar tree that has the same active ingredient as the high priced blemish medication at the other stores and I use it in the shower by just squeezing a little on the facial brush. Very simple and easy and it has lasted me for 2 years and is still going strong. I have only replaced the batteries once. I would highly recommend. Leaves the face feeling smooth and clean. It also comes with a brush for the body, a soft foam brush that I am not sure what to do with and a stone for the feet.

I use a baby liguid cleanser, and also used a green clay slurry-worked great. I think any cleanser will do.

When I was researching, I read someone's comment that you'll have bacteria free oil on the mask. Personally, I am prone to breakouts, but I'm also lazy. I don't wash my nose pillows or headband, and I have no problems with acne or anything. If the pillows get too oily feeling I'll wash them, but that's maybe every two weeks.

I just use 1 cotton ball. Then wipe my whole face with it. I have never had an issue.

Nope! This mask is very soft and comfortable on both sides (sometimes at night I put in on backward without knowing). Even if it was on tight I don't think it would leave a imprint or irritate your skin. It also is adjustable.

I think disposable hygiene wipes are your best bet. (Probably easier to deal with, too.) A wet washcloth would be too heavy to remain secure.

I agree with the others. I applied by hand directly to the face. Let dry then wash off. :)

I occasionally use alcohol based wipes for my 6 yr old. I bought them from Fresh & Easy for $2.99, I can't not remember the name. If you google you may find a diet change may be in order as well :)

I started with the sensitive ones and then ordered these thinking they'd come off as easily... they do NOT! I can only get these tan ones off in the shower and even then sometimes get left behind with some goo... the clear "Breathe Right Extra Clear for Sensitive Skin" ones come off SOOOOOOOOOO much easier! I haven't had ANY problems with them coming off too easy, but I can peel it off in the morning when I get up BEFORE I hop in the shower which was not possible with these tan ones. I know this may be too late for you, but hopefully it helps someone! I used them while pregnancy had me swollen and snoring.

I had that same issue with the Kiss My Face bar. I use this one on my children's skin and hair and does not seem to causing skin problems.
