As the warmer weather and longer daylight hours make it tougher to drift off, Amazon shoppers have discovered a nifty device that sends them to sleep ‘in minutes’. The myhalos 100% Blackout Sleep Mask offers complete darkness while trying to drift off, Wales Online reports.
Amazon has dropped the price of the eye mask to £8.49, more than a third off its usual £12.99 price tag. The gadget has an innovative and flexible nose design that contours to your face to completely block out light.
Made to exert zero pressure on the eyes, the sleep mask is ideal for avoiding discomfort and is even compatible with eyelash extensions. It’s made from ‘premium grade’ memory foam and a soft, breathable fabric to encourage air circulation around the eyes.
Each purchase of the sleep mask comes with a sanitary pouch, ideal for those who need their sleep aid on the move. The mask is the best-selling product in Amazon’s Sleep Masks category and has earned a rating of 4.6 stars after almost 6,000 reviews.
One shopper said of the eye mask: “I wish I’d bought one sooner. It is so comfortable on your face and around your eyes. What I love is, it gives your eyes space, so it is not squashed into your eyes, it’s adjustable, so it fits really well and secure, ready for a good night’s sleep.”
Another said: “Best I have ever owned. Complete blackout at night and sends me to sleep in minutes. Very comfy and they don’t interfere with my eyes or lashes. Excellent product.”
A third added: “It works very well at blocking light. The material is soft. I have a big old head but the strap is easily adjustable to fit.”
One buyer said the eye mask was not comfortable, writing: “Unless you sleep on your back this eye mask is uncomfortable. As soon as you lie on your side the mask pushes into your face as it is too bulky.”
Alternatively, Superdrug offers the Smug Contoured 3D Blackout Sleep Mask for £11.99, while Boots has the Mulberry Silk Eye Mask priced at £12 and John Lewis has an Organic Mulberry Silk Eye Mask for £18.
