--- title: Finding the right CPAP mask | ResMed SG description: Every ResMed mask is designed to deliver effective therapy and a comfortable night's sleep, but each category offers something a little different. --- # CPAP masks Are you ready to find the right CPAP mask for you? ## What do modern CPAP masks look and feel like? You might be surprised. As the leader in CPAP innovation, our masks are constantly getting smaller, smarter and more comfortable. ## Types of CPAP masks There are 3 main types of CPAP masks ![AirFit-P10_Front](https://www.resmed.sg/hs-fs/hubfs/01-2023-Resmed-emergingAsia/SG/AirFit-P10_Front.webp?width=720&height=720&name=AirFit-P10_Front.webp) Nasal pillows masks Nasal pillows masks are very small and lightweight. They snuggle against your nostrils. They’re popular because of their minimal design and are a good choice if you tend to be claustrophobic. You can watch TV, read and wear your glasses while wearing a nasal pillows mask. If you move about a lot when you sleep, this may be a good mask for you. Nasal pillows masks aren’t so good for people who need higher air pressures or people who tend to breathe through their mouth. But if you are a mouth breather, you can still try one and add a chin strap to help keep your mouth closed.

They’re better for people who need higher pressures and there’s a good range of sizes to choose from. Nasal masks, like nasal pillow masks aren’t ideal for mouth breathers unless you add a chin strap. Some people find the nasal mask irritates the bridge of their nose. If you often get a blocked nose, you may have trouble with a nasal or nasal pillows mask.

Look for a full face mask that has a good fit. This will prevent leaking air, especially near your eyes (giving you dry eyes). Newer styles of full face masks may allow you to wear glasses, read or watch TV without too much obstruction. It may be harder to sleep on your stomach while wearing a full face mask.
