A sleep mask has a simple job: create a darker environment while remaining comfortable enough to wear. Fit, shape and material usually matter more than complicated features.
1. Look at the eye area
Flat masks sit directly across the eye area, while contoured 3D designs create space around the eyes. If you dislike pressure around your eyelids, a contoured shape may feel more comfortable.
2. Consider light blocking
A good fit should reduce incoming light around the nose and sides without needing excessive strap tension. Face shapes differ, so fit can vary between people.
3. Choose a comfortable surface
Soft, lightweight materials can make extended wear more comfortable. Also consider whether the mask's care instructions fit your routine.
4. Think about travel
For travel, a lightweight mask that packs easily can be useful on flights, in hotels or anywhere the sleeping environment is brighter than you prefer.
5. Avoid over-tightening
A sleep mask should feel secure rather than restrictive. Adjust it so it stays in position without uncomfortable pressure.
