Lately, even a little bit of light keeps me from falling asleep, which is extra difficult with the leaves coming down and s streetlight right outside the window. While we’ve added blackout curtains, I wasn’t sure what else could make the room darker.
I was really excited to try a new weighted sleep mask, which seemed like an easier solution that anything else.
Overall, I was impressed with the way the FaceMoon Weighted Sleep Mask Contoured Eye Masks used gentle pressure and a design to enhance darkness. While the darkness wasn’t complete when the mask shifted during the night, it was more than enough to help me fall asleep faster.
One standout feature of this mask is the material. I’ve only ever tried one sleep mask in the past, but it ultimately made my face feel super-hot after an hour or so. The FaceMoon Weighted Sleep Mask Contoured Eye Masks did not make my face hot even after several hours of continuous wear. The material feels soft and stays that way through out the night.
The 3D contoured design is another thoughtful addition, enhancing the mask’s comfort by reducing direct pressure on the eyes adding pressure around the eyes rather than on them. This design allows room for blinking, making it suitable for people with long lashes or those sensitive to pressure on the eyelids.
The soft, flexible and invisible nosepiece further blocks light from entering. Together with the contoured design, this mask achieves near-complete blackout, essential for light-sensitive sleepers or for those who sleep in less-than-dark environments. I’m optimistic it will even work well the next time I have an early flight and want to get some extra rest.
Of note, while this mask offers numerous benefits, it may not be ideal for everyone. The weighted design could feel restrictive to those who prefer a lighter touch around their face or who aren’t used to weighted accessories. Additionally, although the material is breathable, those living in particularly hot climates might still find it slightly warm, especially if they tend to overheat easily during sleep. Adjusting to the weight and feel of the mask might take a few nights, particularly for those unfamiliar with weighted items.
For anyone seeking a sleep aid that goes beyond the basics, this mask is a worthy investment.
