Product Reviews of Lights Out Contoured Sleeping Mask Blue Black Out Sleep Eye MaskProduct Review: Overthought Summary: 3 Stars
Sounds good, in theory, but it is too cumbersome and puffy. Which means that when I sleep with the side of my face on the pillow, the mask can buckle, letting light in.
Turns out that unless you have bug-eyes, other regular eye-masks (like the Eagle Creek Eye Shades) don't touch your eye-lids or hinder REM sleep.
It seems like this product is attempting to provide a solution to a problem that doesn't really exist, and as a result, becomes an inferior product.
Pros: the velcro strap is convenient.
Product Review: Perfect Night's Sleep Summary: 5 Stars
I bought one of these out of a catalog about a year or so ago for my husband and he loved it. When he didn't use it I did and it is the best. We have had other cheap ones like you can get at Walgreens or Wal-Mart and they don't even come close to this one. For one, this one stays put, whereas the others will slide around when you roll over and sometimes even slide off in your sleep. The contouring around the nose and the bubbled eye areas make this one very comfortable and blocks out any light. I had to order again since our new puppy chewed up the one we shared and I looked and looked for it and then found it here on Amazon. I ordered 3. One for my hubby, one for me, and one to keep in our spare bedroom for guests. I can't say enough about such a simple product except that these makers got it right! We love ours and you will too!
Product Review: Small and lightweight mask Summary: 3 Stars
I've written reviews on a number of these masks (read all my reviews to find them.) This one is good if you want something very small and lightweight. It doesn't do a good job of sealing out light, however. I improved mine by making a scissors cut halfway up the nose. This allowed the mask to separate a little and settle down onto my face, blocking out more light.
Incidentally, this is exactly the same mask (except for color) as the 'Sweet Dreams' mask sold here. Pick the cheaper of the two.
Product Review: The only sleep mask you'll ever need Summary: 5 Stars
I first spotted the Lights Out Sleep Mask on a visit to The Marketplace at Disney World Florida. That was enough of an endorsement for me to purchase it. It is the most comfortable and effective sleep mask I have ever used. The elastic band is wide, and velcro makes it easy to size for your head. It blocks 95% of bright room light, and the inside spongy material is feather-light on the face of the skin.
