Does the mask that comes with it cover the nose? I see Mabis offers a bigger mask for another $11. Anyone try that? Is it worth it?

I bought it for my mum + haven't used it myself. She uses it to clear her nasal passages so I think the standard mask must cover the nose! She doesn't let the mask touch her skin because it gets hot so I suppose the mask can be positioned wherever you feel best! Hope that helps.

I can fit my mouth and nose at the same time. It's got a little cut out to rest your nose on that works perfectly. The bigger mask is to steam your whole face I believe.

The mask that comes with it is for the nose and a little area beyond. I would like to have the bigger mask as well to perform "at home" facials. I think it's worth $11. I just had nasal surgery and in my recovery I have been happy to briefly use my steamer. Of course after having been given the all clear at my post op appointment. I find it so soothing to my nasal passages.

Thank you for contacting Active Forever. Looking at this product, there is not an actual mask that goes over your nose. You can put your face close to the product but it shouldn't actually cover your nose area. The steam could possibly burn you. I personally, have not had any feedback about the other unit you were wondering about. I hope this answers your question.

Unfortunately I can't see myself when I'm wearing the mask, but I think the pictured model's face is small. It does need to extend beyond your eyebrows and cheeks in order to block out light.

Not sure. The seal one doesn't cover your nose. It's very light and comfortable and seals very easily.

it's only one mask when I bought it. They used to retail one for $60-$80 few years ago. so Idoubt it's sudenly for 2. You can buy it expecting one, and if 2 come, even better.

This is a complete mask. I am so glad we found this site- it has saved my husband & I hundreds of dollars. Hope this helps. Thanks, Cindy

Are you asking about a child's face or an adult's? For an adult, I'd say that the flange around the mask is soft enough and deep enough to fit most faces, but I'm not an expert on this, just a user. My previous experience is limited to SCUBA diving masks and the Army M17A1 gas mask. You might want to search the internet to see if there are any dive outlets near your location, where you can try on different gear.

I have not have that experience.i truly enjoy this mask. I have ordered them on three occasions. Then first one worn out about after a year and after I placed my second order, my husband asked me to order one for him too. You will definitely enjoy this item.

I have no problems breathing with it. I tried the Sly Profit before this but I had a hard time breathing on that one. You can definitely hear yourself though with this mask compared to the profit. I hope this helps.

Not really, if you want a true fitting mask that gives excellent protection. I bought these hoping they would fit my 5 year old, it is smaller than a standard one but is still a bit gappy - the bottom part goes right over his chin and sits under his jaw. It does actually work OK for keeping out dust and debris, but it is by no means a good seal round the edges, so it wouldnt keep out small particles. It fits me very well, so I guess it is designed for small headed adults rather than kids. I also tried in on my two year old, it covers his entire face! (completely unusable)

I had my own and never used the mask. I sold it to a friend who uses it currently to this day. I'd say it covered the face and worth the bonus coming with the marker.

For this particular mask I believe it is one size only, and I'm an adult, mid 20's and it fits me perfect. I'm also a bigger guy and it's a good fit. For children and skinnier guys it may not fit as well.

You may find this one works better because it says the nose part is completely adjustable to fit any size/shape nose. http://www.moriluggage.com/midnight-magic-sleep-mask

It mostly depends on the width of your face as to the size, at least that is what I found. I have what most would consider a pretty average - male - face in medium worked fine for me. Make sure you get the right filter for vapors and should be great. I would never go back to a 1/2 mask as the full is so much more comfortable and protects the eyes. Happ spraying

Walt, none came with the mask. You can purchase filters from Amazon suitable for different needs. Just make sure that the filters will fit and are made for this mask and are made for the task at hand like dust or organic vapors.

I personally think I would find the mask a bit uncomfortable while sleeping on your stomach. The mask bumps up slightly so that it does not touch your eyes, if you were laying on it, it would press against your face a little be awkwardly.

My son was 14 when he broke his nose. He has a narrow face, but even though it fit his face, and I was hoping that the clear guard would help, he complained it was a little distracting. If there is anyway you can have her try one, it would be best. I have seen girls who had concussions use a head guard and that seemed to work well and it doesn

If you consider yourself to have a "normal" size nose (width), then the sm/med would be for you. If you have a wide nose, like the football players - then go for large. I have a normal sized nose and I use sm/med. *After reading the other answers...I agree - do not buy the clear, they don't stick very well. And, always at least rub your nose vigorously with a hot wash cloth to get off any grease or else they won't stick all though the night.
