Alaska Bear Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask, Cool and Smooth (Original Black) | Genuine Organic Silk, For Sensitive Skin, Soft Filling, Lightweight, Flat Design

For our family’s Alaska trip this summer, in the Land of the Midnight Sun, we knew we would need some kind of light-blocker in order to get a decent sleep. It was really hard to tell from the photos, descriptions, and reviews, which products were actually superior, so we purchased 7 different sleep masks. After trying all of them for two weeks, we can give other buyers our comparative reviews. Listed below in rank order from our best to worst, here are the 7 masks we tried: ZGGCD • This was the first one that I tried, and it worked so great. After this one, the other masks were okay, but they were just not quite as good as this one. (except for MZOO which was very, very similar). This ZGGCD mask was priced fairly at $9.99. MZOO • Another great model. Nearly identical to the ZGGCD brand, but it has a large MZOO brand printed on the front. And it cost twice as much. (I paid $19.99) LKY • These masks came as a 3-pack for $9.99. They were an economical option that worked surprisingly well, and were not uncomfortable. These were unexpectedly much smaller than the other masks, but they really did work fine. The band seemed tight, but it was adjustable – I guess I just never adjusted it. These masks kept the light out, and the eye wells were deep enough. Two of my college kids liked them well enough that they borrowed these for another trip they are taking next month. Alaska Bear • I figured this mask was just made for the Midnight Sun! Quite a bit smaller than the extra plush masks. Not very thick either, but again to my surprise, the small masks worked just as well as the luxury models. The price for this one was on the upper end ($14.99). Zenssia • The satin looked and felt luxurious, and at the $19.99 price, it tied with MZOO for being the most expensive mask we tried. The velcro band stays secure, and did not get caught in my hair. The cloth over the ears actually felt nice. But, I can’t say this mask was nice to sleep in. If you didn’t keep the band tight, the mask sort of shifts or spins over my face as I move. And if I pulled the band tight, it seemed to put all the pressure right across my eyes. So this mask was a no-go. LitBear • At $14.39, this was on the pricier end. There is a nose bridge piece that helps block any sneaks of light, but I preferred the superior comfort of the masks that didn’t have that extra fabric bridge, over having every last peep of light obliterated. I can say the nose bridge had a nice cool feeling that I liked. But the critical problem for me was that my lashes brushed on the inside of this mask. MABAO • The mesh fabric on the outside does not speak comfort, but I realize that the outside fabric does not really rub on the skin, so it shouldn’t matter. However, the eye pockets in this one were just too shallow. I hadn’t even known that shallow eye wells could be a problem, but I am sure glad we had other masks with the deep eye wells. We bought this MABAO mask at the budget price of $5.99 I might have mentioned that I am a real mover in my sleep, and sometimes these masks fell off, but to my surprise that didn’t happen often. Many in the family are side-sleepers, and none had complaints about buckles or straps pressing into their heads. After trying these 7 masks, we felt we could offer some helpful feedback to other shoppers. My best two recommendations were ZGGCD ($9.99) as the best mask of all, and LKY which was a decent and functional mask, and there were THREE masks for the same price. Then there were the three that I just could not get comfortable with: Zennsia, LitBear, and MABAO. I wouldn’t recommend these. Happy travels everyone!

This mask is comfortable, soft, lightweight & effective at blocking out light. It stays in place & the adjustable band doesn’t pull my hair out. Doesn’t put pressure on my eyes or nose bridge either. Because I liked the mask so much, I’ve already purchased several more to have available for guests.

I have used a number of sleep masks and this is my favorite. Very soft, lightweight and the strap at the back of the head is adjustable. I like the little padding which is comfortable and easily blocks light. I highly recommend. I'm going to buy another.

I’m on my 4th eye mask I think? I have MGD, blepharatis and eczema, and this is the best I have used out of many. Does not slide off your face (I toss and turn a lot), washes without ruining, and feels nice!

These do feel comfortable and are soft to the touch. You do get a little light trying to peak through from the bottom by the crease of the nose. Albeit, still better than nothing. These do make a substantial difference if you need to crash for a little bit during the day.

Truly light blocking, wide elastic stays in place and is adjustable. My curls didn't get tangled in the band and the band didn't twist. Light pressure over eyes seems to help me sleep. Would purchase again.

Works as intended! Didn't bleed and was easy to hand wash in the kitchen sink. I love it!

Best eye mask ever. Been buying them for myself and for gifts.

Le meilleur masque de sommeil que j'aie testé jusqu'à présent : ultra doux, d'une légèreté incroyable et parfaitement opaque : je ne pense pas pouvoir trouver mieux en termes de confort et d'efficacité !

I have never owned a sleep mask before. I did a lot of research to figure out what brand was high-quality and chose this one. You will only ever buy one or two sleep masks in your life so you may as well spend the money on something that is good quality. This one is so soft and comfortable. It feels nice on the eyes, fitted to the face, and the strap fits comfortably. Easily washable.

Very nice mask! High quality, nice design. Have not used it yet, but it looks perfect! Highly recommend! Thank you!

Buen producto, suave.
