Why we need a sleep mask? Even having a nightlight in your room will disturb natural melatonin production. Melatonin is a hormone that promotes sleep. And even with your eyelids closed, the light is detected and your brain gets confused about what time it is. As a result, your body doesn’t produce as much melatonin. It will leave you SLEEPLESS. This insomnia caused by external factor is avoidable. Keeping your eye in dark as much as possible really is best. Why we use silk fabric for sleep mask? Silk fabric is a kind of protein fiber, which has good biocompatibility with human body; it is perfectly suitable for direct contact with human skin. Silk fabric is lowest friction coefficient to human body. It is moisture absorption and heat dissipation tender luster. For this reason, please wash it gently and don’t exposure it under sun, just keep it in shade and cool place to dry. When you need a sleep mask? Your bedroom can’t be shaded by curtains very well. You wanna sleep but your partners want to study or work. Ideal for taking long trip in flight or train. Take a short break after working or studying. You want relaxation when doing yoga or meditation. Holiday or friends’ birthday is coming, but you don’t know what you should present to. A GIFT CHOICE!

Very comfortable and very good at stopping light from getting in below the eyes.
I've tried a number of different sleep masks over the years but generally haven't used them for long because they're either uncomfortable, shift during sleep, or let light in at the bottom. This one seems to work perfectly. I bought this in June for a trip to Europe and it really helped during the jet lag when I needed to lie in during the early daytime hours. I didn't use the free earplugs because I already have a different brand that I like. Here's what I like about this sleep mask:1) It fits my big head comfortably! Some sleep masks are tight or barely long enough to close. This worked fine, but has enough velcro that it should work for a wide range of head sizes.2) It's incredibly comfortable. Rather than positioning a band above your ears that can then shift down during the night and cut into your ears, this can go comfortably over the top of your ears. For me, it stays in place during the entire night, in spite of all my shifting around.3) The cut-out for the nose is also comfortable and the mask is big enough that it blocks out all of the light that generally gets past eyemasks around that junction.4) It's thin enough that you can lie down on your side without it pressing against your head.5) The silky material is nice. I'm not really a fan of satin/silk bedsheets, etc., but it's a good material for a sleep mask.I just ordered a 2nd one of these for me (I'm worried about losing the one I bought and not being able to replace it) and another one for my wife (who's not happy with her thick, padded, expensive sleep mask).The design isn't rocket-science, but there seem to be surprisingly few sleep masks made like this and I'm glad I found it.

Five stars for the product and five stars for customer service.
I bought several sleep masks and returned all of them except for this one. Unfortunately, all of the masks shared the same order ID number and Amazon mistakenly refunded my payment for this mask as well.The seller emailed me asking what was wrong with the mask, and I replied saying that there was nothing wrong and the refund was a mistake. I offered to do anything necessary to make sure that Amazon reversed the refund, but the seller insisted that I keep the mask as a gift!The mask itself is excellent. Soft silk material, comfortable fit, and does not let any light in. I have not yet washed it to see how it holds up (I intend to wash it in the machine with hot water, and dry on low, despite the instructions to hand wash), but I am very pleased with the mask itself.

Blocks out most of the light and doesn't pinch your head or get caught in your hair
It took me a long time to find a sleep mask with adequate coverage (to avoid light "leaking" in at the edges), but which was also comfortable and didn't have a cheap Velcro strap to get stuck to my hair in the night. This does have Velcro but that is well-covered on a wide strap, so it doesn't grab my hair at all. Very little light leakage and it's very comfortable. There are only two things I don't like about it:1) The strap is wide over your ears as well, which means that you hear rustling in your ears every time you move. If you toss and turn a lot as I do, that gets annoying. I wish they'd cut it higher over the ear areas to avoid that.2) It's made of silk, which means there's no simple way to clean it. I don't want to leave eye gunk and bacteria on there, but you have to hand wash it and then "gently press the water out". That's not ideal. Still, overall it's a pretty good mask, especially for the price.

Super soft on the face!
This is super soft on both sides. It has velcro for an adjustable fit. It came with a nice storage bag and earplugs. It is large enough to cover the face without blocking your nose. There are no hard edges so it will not leave lines on my face. By far the best sleep mask I have found.

Best mask I have ever found
I love this mask! It is ultra lightweight, blocks light very well and does not damage my hair due to the design and construction.. It also arrived very fast.

not as good as I thought
This mask was large. Did not darken the room as much as advertised and the material held in a lot of heat.
