mask fit

OK, so I got a nice mask from the excellent Scubatoys folks. I do have a fit question: When I do the seal test (looking up, no strap, inhale), a tight seal forms, but after a few seconds the nose pocket kind of puffs out--and I'm not inhaling or exhaling through my nose. I swear! What's it all about, Alfie?

It sounds as though the mask has a decent fit according to the test while inhaling. Best thing to do is dive it now !

The first question in do you have a ctapiller on your lip? Or do you have a distinctive nose like I do? I notice that when I do a fit test that it happens to me, I have both!!
