How Do I Measure My Face?

  1. Measure Face Width:
    Use a hard ruler to measure from the outer corner of your eye on one side to the outer corner of your other eye.
  2. Measure Face Height:
    Measure from just below your nose up to just above your eyebrow line.
  3. Compare Your Measurements:
    Match your width and height measurements with our mask specifications below. Aim to be between Min and Max, and as close to Optimal as possible.

About the measurements

We measured the relaxed inner seal and the gently stretched outer seal to give a realistic Min/Max window. Your goal is to sit comfortably inside that window, especially on width, so the mask seals without over-tightening the strap.
Remember to keep the measuring device straight without bending around the cxontour of your face.
