@beatricefay, @flor the mask I use is a Phillips Respironics Amara Vuiew Mask. As you can see in the picture the mask fits under the nose eliminate pressure point on your sinus cavities, that has been my biggest problem in the spring and fall with my full-face mask.

Works great for mouth breathers

I use the ResMed Mirage QUATTRO full face mask for mouth breathing. I have trouble with the strap coming loose from the top slots. I see another mask that has snap-lock clasps for all four tie points. That may be my Christmas present to ME.

I haven't had trouble with the strap coming off while I'm wearing it, though it has slipped out of the notch when I put it on occasionally. I wear a chin strap that I have to have pretty tight. Whenever I get a new headgear, it takes a few nights of adjusting to stop any leaks. My wife does not like it when my mask leaks. I don't always hear or feel it.
