Would someone please share what color the "blue" actually is? It looks purple in the photo. Thanks!

I would call it a dark lavendar. Sort of in between blue and purple.

Does this inflatable pillow loose air inflation after awhile?

I bought mine last August and have struggled with keeping the pillow inflated to my liking. We took the air bladder out and found a small area at the seam that was causing the issue. We attempted to fix it and after a week same result. Blowing up the pillow is tricky and I find that pinching just below the valve helps when replacing the valve plug.

Does it come with a pump

Hi friends, we sell two styles of pillows on Amazon right now: UROPHYLLA Inflatable travel pillow without pump - ( asin is: B078X4MQMN ) UROPHYLLA Inflatable travel pillow come with a pump - ( asin is : B07JVM12KL ) All of them are very comfortable, durable, washable and easy to carry, it can help you to reduce neck pain.

How can I make it More Easily to inflate ?

I don't seem to have a problem inflating or deflating this pillow. All you have to do is blow into the tube attached (after pulling it all the way out from the flush position). When you have it sufficiently inflated to your liking quickly push the cap on tight to stop air from escaping and then push it back into the pillow. It will now be flush again with the pillow so that it will not interfere with your face or neck when you lie on it.
