I have the same problem. I just clear my mask and live with it.

You make a good point. My wife deals with the laugh lines and as such gets a little water from time to time. Initially this was a concern to her, now she just clears it without a second thought. Same for me if I cock and twist looking around.

But, there is always a but......
When a dive goes bad it's often because of a chain reaction, something happened, you look at your instruments, there is water in the bottom of your mask, you can't read them, you clear your mask, your buddy is now out of sight and it goes into the dumper from there.

So if it's a persistent nuisance problem then by all means find a solution. If it happens occasionally under certain conditions you have some middle ground to play with. Few divers masks stay all dry all of the time.

I have same problem and what works for me is a Genesis Panaview mask, it has a deeper notch in the area above the lip letting the mask seat deeper into the smile lines and is the only one that works for me. Your Milage May Vary!
