I LOVE this sleepmask so much that I bought one for my daughter who is dorming at UCLA. It has a pleasant lavendar fragrance and totally blocks out all light. I use it to fall asleep when my husband is up working on the computer or reading a book when I want to go to sleep. My daughter uses it almost every night since her roommates stay up really late studying.

I like this product a lot. When I bought it, I thought that it would 1) have more weight to it (which is sometimes desirable when you have a headache) & 2) could be used cold (both to help me sleep & for times when I have a headache). However, it is very lightweight & though it can be kept in the freezer, it has mostly just herbs/flowers in it, so it only stays cold for a nanosecond. But it works very well as a sleep mask. It blocks out all light completely, the strong Velcro makes it completely adjustable (important, as too tight & it'll cause a headache; too loose, and it won't stay on) & I find that I now sleep longer in the morning, since all of the light is blocked out. I am a stomach/side sleeper, and still the mask is quite comfortable- it doesn't feel itchy or heavy against my face, heavy or ears. Now I use this nightly for sleeping. I simply bought an eye pillow to keep in the freezer, for times when I need weight & cold for a headache, instead.

The mask itself is fine, though it does push on your eyelashes. I only used mine though occasionally for the past year and already the strap has streched out so much that it's too loose. I can't imagine what size head the velcro strap is made for - from the start I had it connected as tight as it could go, and now it's stretched out and it won't stay in place.

I have been using this mask for years and love it. I started using it when I worked nights and slept during the day. It is soft on the inside and doesn't stretch too tight across your eyes. There are little soft roomy pockets to keep out light under the bottom. The lavender inside is a nice comforting smell. I have tried other's and they just do not compare. When the shop I purchased the mask from stopped selling them I was beside my self and then found them at drugstore.com. If you like sleep masks, I recommend this one.

This sleep mask was a gift to my sister, who was about to fly to Europe and, once there, got to sleep late at night - requiring some afternoon naps. According to her, the mask blocked out the light, was comfortable - the adjustable Velcro strap helped to make it so - and the scent was pleasant. It helped her to sleep at odd hours and gave her the energy she needed on her journey.

I had one that lasted for over a year...now it lasts such a short time (for the scent) that I am sure they hardly use any lavender. The quality of the mask is the same (except my old one had a nice embossed polyester instead of the fake velvet). Bean Counters (accountants) rule the world...and I am not going to buy these again.

This does the job - makes it nice and dark for daytime naps or nightime sleeping. It has a velcro closure, so it is adjustable.

Dear Curious,

Those little pockets are, according to DreamTime's website, "padded cheek flaps [that] completely and comfortably block out the light."

My mask was made by Earth Therapeutics and I've owned it since the mid-90s. It's 100% silk and I can no longer recall if it was scented when I received it, but it is nearly identical to this product.

I like to take 2 cotton pads (not balls, they're too bulky), place a drop or two of lavender essential oil on each, fold each in half and tuck one into each of the cheek pouches in the morning -- buy early evening, the entire mask has absorbed the scent and I can remove the cotton pads (I don't recommend leaving them in as the oil at this dosage level is too strong to leave in close contact with the eye area overnight without first blending with a carrier oil--and that would make a fine mess!). By bedtime, the mask's aromatic benefits have been completely rejuvenated. There are many other essentials oils and blends that are wonderful to use, but I urge you to consult an aromatherapist or other authority before using them.

Another use I've discovered for the cheek pockets is to soak two cotton pads in icy chilled water, squeeze the water out completely, fold each in half, insert into the pouches and use the mask to soothe puffy, irritated eyes (from allergies, tiredness, crying, etc.). There are many different types of essential oils that are helpful and can be added to the icy water, but I urge you to consult an aromatherapist or other authority before you try using them.

I hope you return, Curious, and that I have satisfied your curiosity!

I bought 2 of these, and gave one to a friend of mine. I tend to go to sleep with the tv on and this mask blocks out the light. I'm just curious on what the pockets on the inside are for!

This mask worked well. It seems to be well made * it stays on throughout the night.
