FRESHME Handmade Cotton Sleep Mask Upgrade Light Blocking Sleeping Eye Mask | Soft & Comfortable Eye Shape Blinder Blindfold Airplane with Pouch for Nap Sleeping Travel for Women Men Kids(Gray Modal)

Never used a sleep mask before, but had to look one up as both my partner and myself lately have suffered from work stress that results in disrupted and bitty overnight sleep. The difference is, my partner uses her mobile when she can't sleep to scroll through stuff to help her go back to sleep. That kept me, on the other hand, from falling asleep again (or woke me up in the middle of the night, as i could detect light through my closed lids). Rather than sleeping separately (we still enjoy each other's company :-D) I decided to check out sleeping masks to see if that could be a solution. Two things were a must: a) I mainly sleep on my side, so the mask should stay put (and not get dislodged or be uncomfortable) when turning from side to side (with my head rolling on the pillow), and b) the mask must feel comfortable on the head (which precludes synthetic elastic straps around the head, as they're tight and pull on my hair). After a bit of search I settled on trying this mask (which got star reviews). To begin with, I was apprehensive for I'd never used one before. Right enough, the first few nights were difficult as I wasn't used having stuff around my head whilst sleeping. Very soon, however, I got used to it and after that, wow, my sleep quality improved massively! Things that work well: - This, I imagine, is one of the softer sleeping masks on the market. The cotton lining is extremely soft and makes for a cool interface, meaning my forehead and face don't sweat. - Like others have said, no light goes through this mask when I got my eyes shut. None whatsoever. If any light might creep in slightly is from under the nose, when I have my eyes open, and that's because I wear this mask quite loosely fastened around my head. - Adjustable fastening, WITHOUT synthetic elastic straps. Cotton cover extends all round the mask, which fastens through a velcro strap that helps adjust how tight you wear it around the head. When wearing it very tight, it gave me a slight headache (as i've said I'm not used wearing stuff around my head during sleep), so I loosened it a bit and it feels super comfortable. - Through the night, I often roll from side to side and my head does the same on the pillow. Because this mask is, in effect, one size/thickness all round, i.e., no thin strap vs main mask bulk contrast, it doesn't get dislodged against the pillow as my head moves. Instead it follows smoothly my head movement, and does so even worn more loosely fastened than it could be. Also, I don't experience any pull to my hair through the contact with an elastic band. Things that don't work well: - Nothing really, except that first couple of times I wore the mask quite tightly fastened and I felt pressure on my head through the night and my forehead sweated a bit. But that was my own fault, once I loosened the velcro strap a bit, I never had the same effects. Results have been a massive success. It allows me to sleep quite well through my partner's trawling through social media on her phone (even a couple of times putting her bedside light on to search for pills) and, thus, kept the both of us in the same bed! I've now ordered a second one to wear while I wash this one and will be taking it on my next trip abroad!.

I would highly recommend this sleep mask being someone who struggles to sleep with light. I have lost my other sleep mask that was my holy grail, but this one has taken it's place. The quality of the material is brilliant and is very comfortable and soft. It is adjustable with velcro and has a cut out area that fits around your nose so that you can still breathe easily. It blocks the light out very well, and so far I've not woken up with it back to front or halfway off my head haha. I am glad that after my search for another decent sleep mask, I came across this one. Give it a try, if like me, you struggle to sleep with any light whatsoever on!

➕ Stays on while you sleep ➕ The large strap is very comfortable around the ears ➕ It does block light quite well ➖ Not as comfortable on the eyes as some This is the third different sleep mask brand I've tried from Amazon. The first was very comfortable around the eyes and blocked out light perfectly, but it would come off during the night quite a lot. That's actually how I lost it -- it came off during the night in a hotel bed and must have slipped behind the bed or something. The second I had was an Alaska Bear sleep mask, which I still have but is now a backup. That came off every night, didn't block all light and the elastic was uncomfortable around my ears. It's also got some bobbling on the elastic. So onto this one. I was drawn to the very large strap, I wanted to see if it made a difference to the mask staying on. I've had it on every day for a week now and it hasn't come off once! There's been a couple of mornings where I've woken up and it has been turned around slightly but I'm overall very impressed. The strap itself uses velcro to tighten, rather than an adjustable elastic band with a buckle that the others have had. This makes if more comfortable on the ears and it stays tight on the whole night without coming loose. There's a little bit of extra material around the nose area that helps block light coming through the bottom. However, you need to put the mask on fairly tight for it to make a difference, which makes it more uncomfortable on the eyes as the mask pushes on your eyelids. This is where it differs (in a bad way) compared to the other masks I've used; they had padding around the eyes to relieve the pressure and they were more comfortable in that respect. If this mask could have combined that with the large velcro strap then it would have been the best of both worlds.

Very, Very Comfortable and Gives 100% Black-Out. There are all kinds of 'Mind-Folds' available but this is the Most Comfortable I have tried: Daily Meditation, also for Travelling on Plane/Train. It may look 'cumbersome' but it is NOT. Very Light, Soft Material, also comes with a pair of Ear Plugs in their own pouch. Highly Recommended.

Very comfy, game changer

First off the positives and there are plenty; super soft and extremely comfortable. Probably THE most comfortable eye mask I’ve worn and no thin strap irritating the top of your ear. Although not fully blackout it’s dark enough. The negative (and it’s only one but a big one) it’s just too hot. My is melting whilst wearing this and that is on a cool Spring evening. I dread to think how hot it will be during summer so sadly, not for me.

These masks are great, as you can adjust easily to the perfect size for your head & also soft against your face, as well as being very easy to wash in between uses. They cut out all light once fixed and in the winter keep your face warm! Would highly recommend buying.

Amazing

I've tried a lot of sleep masks over the years. I want that balance of blocking the light; not being too hot to wear and something that works/comfortable for a side sleeper. I've found some masks that work well for a nap on my back, but everything digs into the side of my head when I'd roll over. There was too much padding on either side to make it comfortable to wear all night. I ended up using a t-shirt. I noticed this mask claiming that it was good for side sleepers. As my husband would say, here I go again.... I decided to try it. I'm so glad that I did! It has the feel of a t-shirt so it's soft and comfortable. It blocks out all the light and when I roll onto my side it's flat. Nothing is pressing into my head/ear. It honestly feels like a soft t-shirt on the side of my head. This mask is awesome!! I only wish that there were more colors to choose from. What I don't know yet, is how it will wash up in the washing machine. Does it stop all the sweating, no, but I'm also at that lovely age that we women dread. Do we have oily foreheads, yes. I just hope that it maintains its shape after a good wash.

Soft and comfortable, it's really perfect

Mit Abstand die besten Schlafmaske für Seitenschläfer. Bei anderen Masken hatte ich immer das Problem, das diese verrutscht sind oder gedrückt haben, wenn ich mich auf die Seite gedreht habe. Diese Maske sitzt perfekt, ist sehr weich, verrutscht nicht und erzeugt auch keinen Druck. Auch das kein klassisches Band vorhanden ist, sondern die Ohren gleich mit bedeckt werden ist sehr angenehm. Absolute Empfehlung!!

Really really really love this mask. I got it 7 months ago and I have not treated it well. I have washed it only one time and it hasn’t given me any skin problems at all. Also it’s extremely soft fabric and stuffing makes it cozy. It’s lost its stiffness the last couple months so it slips around a teeny bit if I make it loose. I am sure had I treated it better it would have kept it shape more much like how washing jeans makes them tight again, but it doesn’t matter to me because it’s really comfy and I don’t mind if it moves half an inch while I’m asleep not noticing. It’s dark, it’s comfy, and it covers the ears a bit so it muffles sound. Nothing like ear plugs, just some dampening of the sound. I guess like a closed door maybe. I wouldn’t know, my cat ensures we are never allowed to close our door haha In fact I love it so much that I just ordered another because my puppy also loves it. It smells like human AND it’s extremely soft and filled with cotton stuffing... just like her stuffed animals. Today I finally found it in her bed with half the stuffing out ❤️
