I use the AquaLung MicroMask Two Window Mask. Its a small volume mask with lenses close to the eyes. Even though its not specifically a mask for small faces I think you might find it well suited for your needs. Check it out at your local LDS.

Yeah, I second the motion! ...was in a dive shop yesterday, tried one of those Micromasks on, and it seemed to fit me just fine. I'm blessed in that it seems I can wear just about any mask I want, assuming the mask has the features/design I want, so I don't really need a 'small' mask, but after modeling it in the store/mirror, I could definitely tell it would work very well for a 'small' face......if I were you, I'd look at this mask, or the smaller version of the Atomic Aquatics mask.....I do own one of the Atomic ones, and it has fit me as well as any other diver I've ever loaned it to. Both of these masks retail in the $100-$125 range, but I'm sure you could do better than that @ Scubatoys/Leisure Pro/etc. Pay what it takes to get a good mask, if the mask sucks, diving sucks!
 
I can't speak to the x-vision, but I have tried the liquid skin. the silicone is so comfortable, however it didn't work for me because i have smile lines. It might work out fine for you.

I ended up with a Tusa Serene and love it.
 
I've been looking at the Mares X-vision. Some people told me the X-vision Mid is good for smaller face. Has anyone tried this mask? If so, how is it? Also, is there actually a big difference between the regular X-vision and the liquid skin?

Yes, my girl (tiny face, tiny head) wears the X-Vision and loves it. She highly recommends the mask for small faces.

The liquid skin didn't come out until later, so yes, they are different, but not being familiar with the liquid skin, I can't help you on how that mask fits.
 
My friend has a very, very narrow face(tho he's not narrow minded lol) and his masks never fit right. I've been keeping my eye out for a suitable mask and snagged this for him: MK-163 Pano II Slim It's the first mask he's used that didn't leak. It's price is in the $40-$50 range
