I know it's a different topic but do you remember when that sort of thing used to be considered erotic ? Judging by the yoof of today it's now considered to be over-dressed for a night on the town

It'd be cheaper to have plastic surgery to alter the shape of my face to fit a Frameless 2.

God, I hate diving.

Tusa Liberator works for me
If you have high cheekbones and a heartshaped/ round face.
If you smile lots under water ( like me!) these stay put...

Oceanic Mini Shadow - available in black........... I really loved mine - till I lost it.........seems suitable for girlie faces

This just occurred to me earlier today whilst daydreaming at work. I noticed at one point during the dive yesterday that I had a sudden flush of water around the nose.

I looked at my buddy and realised the face shape around the lips and nose changes quite a lot when a reg is in the mouth, so trying a mask with a reg (or snorkel) as Paul suggests is probably better than without...

Of course, you could always try a good bead of silicon sealant around the mask skirt before putting it on. No water will get in but it would be a b*tch to get off again!

Please note: The above is meant in jest and I will take no responsibility for masks being permanently glued to divers faces!

I googled the Cressi Big Eye and it does come with a black skirt, so that might just be the way forward

mine didn't!!
why don't you try your friends masks before buying?

Hi I'm fairly new to this and have had the same problem. I acquired a Cressi Big eye mask and that seems to have done the trick!

Yes another vote for the Cressi Lince here.

Ocean Reef! And you can swear at other divers so that they can hear you during the dive!

Tsk, we're women...we already have the ability to talk under water
