After trying out what seemed like every mask at my LDS, I finally tried the Super Occhio and I love it! It fits my narrow face.
 
The Cressi Matrix. I think it's new as my LDS just got them in. It's a super low profile mask and seems to fit just about everyone. I have a head on the small side too and this fits me fine. You might want to look into that.

My significant other is having challenges finding a mask she is comfortable with. She has a small face and should most likely wear a kids size mask but she wont. Right now she has a large 3 window job with a purge that someone stuck her with. If they still made them I would like for her to try one of the old Dacor DM30's Small round mask with the purge in the front. It used to be a big hit with the ladies in years past. In lieu of finding one of those, what would you suggest that she try.[/QUOT

I just bought the mares 2 lens xvision and I also have a small face and it fits but it doesnt have a purge. but it fits great and gives you a wide angle of vision. my lds did the same thing gave me a kids masks and it wasnt good.
 
I've opted for an Oceanic "Prizm"...seems like a whole lotta mask but it fits my smallface really well and I'm loving the unobstructed peripheral view.
Happy Diving. :geek:
 
My wife uses a ScubaPro Cool Vu, and she loves it. She has a very small face, definately kid-sized, and this mask fits her perfectly. She likes the frameless side windows for visability.

Hello everyone, I was beginning to feel that I was being too picky. I have a small face and it was hard for me to find a mask that had the right fit, looked right on me and did not leak.(Is that to much to ask?) The key here is, I took my time finding one...after lots of advice from hubbie (he has been patient) I found the ONE. I love my new Dacor Phaz. It has panoramic view, it fits good and feels great on my face and what a view!!! I love it!

Good luck and happy diving......

Being patient was easy, I just quit making suggestions after about the 15th mask she tried LOL :54:

The mask we picked up for the babe is a truly nice mask. It appears as it would be a med - high volume mask (considering the panoramic side view windows), but it is indeed a low volume mask. Here is a picture of it: http://www.divedacor.com/masks-phaz.html

As a matter of fact, Dive Rite also has their version of the mask, but with a slightly smaller skirt and lenses, for those people with even smaller faces than my 5' (5'2" with heels), ____ lbs scbababe :sappy:

Semper Safe,

I (as many it seems) have had this same issue. The Mares opera worked for me, but my new favorite is the Apollo Biometal mask....awesome, awesome but a little pricey. At least give it a look. It is the only one I have found that doesn't leak and is a nice low profile.
