When I switched from the Mirage Quatro to the F20, I could see a big difference in the silicone and I immediately had a skin irritation around where the mask touches my skin.  I put a liner on and it helps, furthermore, I can see if the liner moves and the mask ends up touching my skin, ugh.

The Remzzzs are not thick enough to help me. Last night I used a homemade liner cut from thicker, very soft flannel and it stopped the irritation. ?

My better half say use a water based moisturiser and rub it well in before going to bed.
I am not going to argue with her as she is a woman and I will loose any argument entered into!

You're likely already aware of this, but it's probably the silicone that your skin does not like. If the flannel padding helps, keep doing it.

Not trying to be off-topic, but it reminds me of the FitBit. I had one a few years ago, but had to return it as it caused a rash on my wrist. Rashes and other signs of irritation can, and do, happen. Fortunately, you seem to have found a relatively easy solution. Here's to hoping success continues.

If you've got the Wally World receipt, maybe.

Speaking of Wal-Mart, about a month ago near me, a shopper picked up a coffee maker on the shelf and took it to the customer service for a refund. Local police took her off to the police station for attempted fraud. Bug-eyed Sorry for the Offtopic
