Side Sleeper Sleep Mask, Patented, 100% Blackout, Dark Grey | Cup-shaped Design, Zero Pressure, Ultra-soft fabric, Machine Washable, Ideal for Home & Travel

I rarely ever write reviews, but this sleep mask is so awesome I felt compelled to express my gratitude. First off, I’m extremely picky about quality and products doing what they claim. Secondly, my head is on the smaller side so finding a mask that doesn’t fall off can be tricky. I looked at so many sleep masks and read tons of reviews before this one ended up in my cart. I work 12 hr night shift, so blocking out light for sleep (even with black out shades) is of the utmost importance. I generally have a tough time with things in my face or head and can’t even sleep with my hair down due to being a light sleeper, so finding a mask that isn’t irritating was also important. This mask blocks out 100% of light (even with all the lights on) it lifts completely off your eyes, so you can open your eyes and blink with the mask on. I wear false eyelashes so finding an eye mask that worked with lashes was also important to me. This mask fits my head without falling off and is completely adjustable. It can be made very small, medium, or even large. It is great quality all around. You can tell as soon as you open up the nice box and feel it. This mask is NOT some cheap junky piece of material with velcro. It is high quality, completely adjustable, and does not contain any velcro (many do and don’t last). This mask is not irritating to wear and the fact I can completely open and close my eyes without them even grazing the material is awesome. The price point for this product is an amazing deal in my opinion. I will be buying more for gifts to my fellow night shifter friends and a back up for myself in case I travel and lose it. If you wear a sleep mask and are in the market for a new one you can’t lose getting this one. Don’t even bother looking at the others. This is 100% honest review, I didn’t get anything in exchange for my feedback. Put this in your cart!!

I’ve been wearing black out masks for 20+ years. This is my favorite one ever, and so affordable! It’s soft, lightweight, well designed and comfortable strap, full blackout, suits back, side or stomach sleepers, lets you open your eyes, and is washable. I’ve already ordered a second and will probably get a few more so I’ll have a pristine clean one on hand. Highly recommend.

I first looked into this sleep mask because it looked unique in that there was more fabric coverage down around the nose (like a true blindfold), and I thought that would be great for blocking out a lot of light. But just a disclaimer, the mask shown in the pictures (as of today, 3/9/23) is the ORIGINAL model. The newer model (which is what I received) is more contoured around the nose, without that additional fabric flap. After reading through some other recent reviews, I saw that if I were to reach out to the company directly, there was a good chance that they might send me one of the original models if they still had it in stock. Spoiler alert, they DID send me the original model! So 5 stars for customer service for Alaska Bear, hooray for a company that actually cares! (I cannot say the same for another sleep mask company, Bucky, as the mask I recently bought from them literally started falling apart a few months after I began using it, and I tried reaching out to them multiple times with no response). So, my overall review after comparing both models... in an unforseen plot twist, the newer contoured model actually blocks MORE light than the original. With the original model, the extra fabric flap seems to hold the mask further from your face, which allows more light in. Maybe if there was more fabric it would just pool around your nose a bit more, but it's taut enough that your nose holds the mask away from your face just enough to let additional light in at the bottom. So for anyone who may be disappointed that the mask they received looks different than the one pictured, don't be! The newer model is actually an improvement, in my opinion. My overall review of this mask (the newer model) is that it really seems like a high quality product. The fabric is super soft and overall it is very comfortable. There is no Velcro to tangle in your hair, and the adjustment clasps are slim enough that I literally can't even feel them when I'm lying on my side OR my back. Also, the seams are SEWN, rather than glued or heat sealed, so it likely won't start falling apart the way several of the other cheaper masks seem to do these days (just click on review photos for other masks you are considering, that should tell you if it's an issue or not). And I think it fits more comfortably and blocks more light then any other mask I've tried in the past. So I'm likely a convert for life now, I genuinely love it this mask!!!

3.5 stars rounded up. I've had this eye mask for 5 months and, overall, it's great. The material is soft and smooth, it doesn't leave creases on my face, I don't find it to be overly hot, it's super easy to adjust, it doesn't rub uncomfortably on my ears, it does block all light for me, I can open my eyes without them rubbing, neither the tag nor the low profile adjustment slider bothers me, etc. I'm primarily a side sleeper and rarely a back sleeper. It's comfortable in both positions. It came in a plastic ziplock style bag (a cheap one for sure, but better than nothing) which I appreciate, as I continue to keep it there when not in use. I don't wear it every night, more like 3 days a month depending upon how dry my eyes are. I have two concerns, though. A minor concern is the wrinkles in between the eye pads. No big deal right now, but it worries me that the padding might start to disintegrate soon or rip open. The much larger concern is that it's not ideal for people with small heads. I have a small head and it's so difficult to find items that work well in a world full of big heads with the one-size-fits-all approach. The circumference of my head is about 20" where my eyes are and even on the tightest adjustment, as I stretch this over my head for use, it seems to keep stretching out a bit and it started close to be being too large to begin with. I'm worried it's going to just start sliding down my face soon. As you can see in one of my pictures, you can only adjust the tightener/slider to a certain point because it then runs into another seam so nothing bothers your ears. I really wish they had a S/M and L/XL version, so those of us with small heads don't have to worry that we can only stretch it over our head so many times before it simply won't stay in place anymore. Furthermore, when you have a small head and the eye cups alone are about 7.75" wide, the raised eye cups are already nearly touching my ears and I wish they were a bit more narrow too. I know it's incredibly difficult to get people to do anything, like measure, before they purchase and then complain online 😂, but most people at least know if they have a small or big head and a size differential would be so helpful. If you have a big head, this is 5 out of 5 stars. If you have a small head, it's the best I've found so far, but not flawless. Good luck to my fellow small heads out there.

Love,Love,Love it!!! This is my 2nd one & will buy some more in different colors. It’s tight fitting. Light doesn’t get in AT ALL!!! Love it!!!

With the sun coming in the window at 4:30am now, my wife was having a hard time staying asleep. This mask is great for her side sleeping and stays put. She was worried about being able to sleep with something on her face, but she says it is very soft and comfortable. Like others mentioned, some light does seep in around the nose area, but she said if she pulls the strap up higher on her head in the back, it solves the problem for her. The mask is such that even when she opens her eyes or blinks, her eye lashes don't hit the mask.

I had a cheaper eye mask but the issue those had is it leaked light from where it went over my nose bridge. It had molded spots for your eyes and while I appreciated it, the awkward mold made the mask constantly slip since I predominantly am a side sleeper. While I can still feel this mask while on my side, the mask is extremely soft and the mask blocks ALL light. I woke up to a room bright from the sun and I didn't even realize it was morning due to the mask. The fabric is super soft too. I am a fan.

There is nothing bad about this, per se, but I wouldn't say it is significantly better than any other similar brand, either, which is a disappointment. Last year, while questing to find a way to have a totally dark environment since fully blacked out windows are impossible (I need to use a window air conditioner in the summer and often need an open window even in cold temperatures due to radiator heat), I bought another brand and was frustrated by the fact that it was completely impossible to wear them both effectively and comfortably with a CPAP mask (either full face or nasal), and doing so for a few weeks, the best I could, eventually wore the mask down so that it was entirely ineffective. Based on the description here and the photos of the design, and the repeated claims that it was perfect for side-sleepers and other people whose bedtime issues might cause movement or pulling on the mask, I thought this one might be more suitable to someone who has other stuff in other areas on their face, but I was disappointed again--no matter what, these masks seem to be templated around the nose in a way that it will block devices, meaning you either you have to put a CPAP mask OVER it, tightly and uncomfortably, and in such a way that the eye mask will be destroyed relatively quickly, or you have to put the eye mask over the CPAP mask, in which case it will not block light. It is what it is, I didn't expect miracles, but please keep all this in mind if you wear any kind of CPAP or other air delivery system.

Nice silk sleep mask. Lightweight, smooth, and soft. Totally covered light. The adjustable strap makes sizing easily. Had a nice sleep on flight.

Die beste Maske die ich jemals hatte! Sehr weich, angenehm, drückt nicht, blockiert der Licht. Und was mir sehr wichtig ist- ist nicht zu warm im Sommer zu nutzen! Wunderbar.

I rarely give 5 stars but this one deserves it. Its really comfortable to wear, but i don't wear it too tight. I don't feel it touching my lashes, but i wear glasses so I'm used that sensation, I guess. The wide strap is amazing. I left it to air out before i first used it and that was fine. The fabric is very soft. It is 100% blackout. If you roll around, then of course it will move and a slit of light will appear, doesn't bother me though.

Súper suave, hace un black out completo, muy cómodo. Mejora mucho tu calidad de sueño y cuanto tardas en dormir. Se me hacía incluso un poco caro al comprarlo, pero vale cada peso.

Mucho mejor que los antifaces con banda elástica.
