One of the tricks that I have learned to make the mask a little more comfortable is to put a thin piece of surgical tape across the bridge of the nose where the mask touches that part of the nose. So far it hasn't leaked, I use a gel type mask, and it has cut down on the rubbing and irritation to that part of the nose. Its a small thing but it does make using the mask a little easier.
