Nasal masks:

Nasal masks are the original CPAP interface.  These are well tolerated by many people.  Nasal masks fit over the nose and require straps around the head (called headgear) to keep it in place.  If there is leaking of air out of the mouth, a chinstrap can be used to reduce this airleak.  Some examples of nasal masks include:
