How so? Like covering their mouth but not nose, or something?

(I'm just wondering if it's something like that that should be obvious, or if there's something more subtle I'm unaware of)

Yes, having the mask covering only the mouth with nostrils exposed.

Also, as an fyi, if you are using some of the common paper masks, make sure the strings are on the outside.
