Nidra Contoured Sleep Mask - Black, Standard Size | Sleep Masks for Women - Eye Mask for Sleep, Zero Pressure Fit, 100% Light Blocking & Travel - For All Sleeper Types

Very comfortable and good for back sleeper.

Simply awesome. I just ordered three more. I travel extensively in my work (30+ weeks a year) and suffer from dry eyes. I wear this mask every night - as well as on airplanes. It not only keeps everything nice and dark (black) but also protects my eyes from drafts from hotel air conditioners and such that cause problems with the dry eye issue. Since I have a rather large nose, it is really nice that the nose area is cut out. Every other mask I have tried allows light in around the nose, but this one does not. It fits firmly and snugly to block out all light, but is also extremely comfortable. Why did I order three more? Because I keep one on my headboard at home, one in my suitcase for use in the hotel, and one in my backpack for use on the airplane. They do eventually wear out, but in my experience, that takes about four to six months of nightly use. So the three I ordered are replacing a couple I bought many months ago - plus I'll have a spare. I am a bit of a wild sleeper - I sleep on my back, side, and stomach through the night. This mask stays put, and it keeps the light out as well as the drafts. And it is extremely comfortable. Literally, the only problem I have had with this mask is that if I get up in the night, I will sometimes forget I have it on and walk into things (yep - I'm a klutz). But my point is, it is so comfortable, you forget you have it on. Lastly, I traveled over a million air miles and could NEVER sleep on airplanes due to the light and noise. In the last year, I have started wearing noise cancelling headphones and this mask. I now sleep on almost every flight. It is wonderful! I simply cannot recommend it highly enough.

This is a product you don't even know you need until you try it and realize your sleep quality improves dramatically. I used to sleep face down until spinal issue forced me to sleep on my back. I hated the way my eyes tended to open more facing up and the greater amount of light you perceive in this position. Having the Nidra on totally blocks out all light and makes it much easier for your eyes to close naturally and/or not register any light if they do float open at times. It is also very comfortable in particular in the way it is shaped (domed out) so that the inner lining does not touch your eyes at all. This is very important and if you've ever tried to use a mask that rest flat on your face, and were irritated by it, you will be very pleased with this difference. I have only one small beef with the mask, and that may be an issue that pertains to me only, in that I tend to sweat at night more than most people might. I have had a couple of these masks and in each case the inner lining eventually starts to separate from the outer shell which causes a flap of fabric to bunch up inside the eye-piece of the mask. This can be addressed by smoothing the flap down and then placing the mask back on firmly but it is a bit annoying. I believe this may be related to my getting the mask sweaty more frequently than it is probably intended to endure but it would seem a good idea for the company to look at ways to strengthen the attachment between the lining and shell at the bottom of each eye-cup. I believe it is glued on and perhaps a very fine stitch would add the extra strength it needs to withstand moisture and extra heat. Otherwise, this is a very effective and inexpensive aid to much deeper quality sleep!

I read about this product at TheWirecutter.com. It is their top-rated sleep mask. So I purchased it, and it does the trick perfectly! Honestly, I keep it next to my easy chair in our family room, so if I decide to take a nap when there, I have this sleep mask right there to block out ALL the light. Perfect! By the way, I have a large head. I was concerned at the time of purchase, will it fit my fat head! YES, and with room to spare! Perfect again!

The rounded cushioning does not stay well on a round brow. It's comfortable when it's in the right place, and seemingly good quality, I just couldn't get it to stay put.

I don't usually bother writing reviews but I felt compelled for this mask since it has far exceeded my expectations. I'm a side/stomach sleeper so most masks come off very quickly when I sleep. I also need a pitch dark room in order to sleep without waking up throughout the night, a single blue light can disturb my slumber. I've been repeatedly woken up by the blinking light on the smoke detector in my room...a sticker over the light has helped. So I learned about this mask and decided to give it a try. I'm so glad I did! This mask is not only very comfortable, but it also stays on my face most of the night, although it does still slip off by morning about half the time (I'm a very restless sleeper). The best thing is that it blocks out almost everything!! If you position it just right and have a neutral face is should fit exactly to your face and block out everything, but I've found that in reality with my face mushed against my pillow that a teensy bit of light makes it through the bottom part, generally in the nose area. However it is a very small amount that gets through in a brightly lit room, so in practice when in bed with the lights off and my eyes closed, it is not a problem. I've had some of the best sleep in my current setup while using this mask. It's the best purchase I've made in awhile!

These would be absolutely perfect if not for one fatal flaw. They have the most annoying little Nidra tag sewn into the elastic portion on the right hand side. It's exactly where my ear hits it. The corners of the tag stick up and create a friction point. After a few days I was wondering why there was a tender spot where my ear connects to my head. It was red and irritated. Put it on again not realizing the connection and sure enough the tag hit the irritated area right away and was more noticeable because of previous nights irritation. I would give this product 4 or 5 stars if not for that one small, but very irritating issue. Stick your branding somewhere else.

My sleep doctor recommends it. I have not just the three kinds of insomnia: can't fall asleep, stay asleep or get back to sleep but also a serious circadian rhythm problem: my internal clock is jiggered back about 5 hours so when others are getting sleepy, I'm rarin' to go. I've been seeing a sleep specialist for months. One of the first things she bade me do was darken our bedroom pitch black. Well...our windows face east and south and it would have take a lot to do that; plus, what are you going to do during the day? Hubby lit on wearing a sleep mask which I was hesitant to try because I don't like my face to feel bound. I also doubted a mask could truly block out all light. I'm delighted to say that this mask meets my needs perfectly. It's soft and comfortable. Sometimes I have to be careful not to lay with my face sideways or it'll push it out of place slightly. But I've learned--even in my sleep--to roll over slowly and it stays put. The BEST thing is: I put it on, the room is perfectly dark and I can still open and close my eyes!! So it doesn't mash down my eyelids which I would hate. It's large enough to fit around my eyes perfectly and the elastic band, which has velcro adjustment, keeps it on. I will admit that sometimes I'll wake up in the morning and find that it fell around my neck or off my head in the night...but that's after I've had a good night's sleep. If I have to get up in the night, I forget I'm wearing it. Highly recommended.

I have been using this on planes to sleep and it effectively blocks out light and is easy on the eyes as it does not press on them at all.

This product does not look like the photo. The mask is thin without any contour for the nose as shown in the actual Nidra mask without any logo on the strap. Very flimsy strap. This is not a luxury mask or even a branded product shown in the Amazon website. Very disappointed. Have requested for return and refund

Product was received was genuine. It is as described - comfortable and stays on all night. Had to adjust it the first couple of nights as there was some light that came through the nose bridge. But managed to adjust it so that no light came through.

Item wasn't suitable and a return is not possible, even though this is not stated anywhere! Be very very careful of buying this!

Good construction and quality materials. The fact that it protrudes from the face make it slightly uncomfortable when one sleeps on the side. Blocks all light. A bit overkill for the purpose.
