Oh jeez, someone help me out here, please. I have a small face and have been looking at Cressi masks. These three masks...
Eyes Evolution
Big Eyes
Big Eyes Evolution

My head is spinning because when I Google or try looking them up the names seem to be interchangeable. I know Big Eyes is a bigger mask than Eyes Evolution (which is hard to find online) so what is Big Eyes Evolution?

Those Italians!!! I can say that, I'm Italian :)
 
hello,
- Cressi Big Eyes: old model, less available, only black color and harder skirt.
- Cressi Big Eyes Evolution: newer model evolved from the older shape, softener skirt, and slightly different lenses increasing viewfield; available in different colors.
- "Eyes Evolution" is the "Cressi Big Eyes Evolution Crystal", same name "shortened" on some websites,
if followed by "Crystal" it is made from crystal clear silicone that should not become yellow after time.

My 17 years old daughter was satisfied with "Scubapro Zoom" borrowed from our club, before we received a smaller children mask "Mares Pirate". You might try "Scubapro Zoom" if available to borrow in your area.
 
Thank you for that info. So Eyes Evolution, the smaller version of Big Eyes Evolution, is now called Big Eyes Evolution Crystal? I just want to make sure the Big Eyes Evolution Crystal is the smaller size?

I'm 4'11" and my face size is probably equivalent to a 12-13 yr old, I'm refusing to buy a child's mask.
 
The original Cressi Big Eyes, if you can still find it, is excellent for narrower faces. Both of my daughters prefer that mask. Luckily I still have two of them.

My wife who also has a narrow face profile used the Mares X Vision Mid, you might want to give that one a try as well.
