Dreamgirl Soft Foam Earplugs

Literally do yourself a favor and never buy anything other than Macks, I know better then anyone that we try to save a little money. Just don't, they are so perfect and comfortable and blocks out snores that could break walls down. Love love love.

This is my 2nd bottle of Mack’s ear plugs. They are perfect for my tiny ear canals. They don’t cause any pain after wearing them a while. They are well made. They stay in place overnight.

I have now tried 3 types of Mack's earplugs: tan regular, purple slim-fit, and pink dreamgirl. Hopefully this information will help others who are trying to find the right ones: Tan: As shown in the picture below, these are slightly longer and wider than the purple/pink earplugs. Definitely have the absolute best noise reduction, and would work well if you are sleeping with a snorer. However,they are quite painful to wear all night long if your ears are relatively small (like mine). My husband loves these, and they fit him perfectly. Purple: Slightly shorter & narrower than the tan earplugs. They are easier for me to fit in my ear, but they let in slightly more sound. Everything is muffled (think very soft background noise), but not blocked like the tan earplugs. They would probably not completely block a snorer near you, but they would reduce the sound enough to be fairly tolerable (maybe imagine the sound of waves on a beach). These are more comfortable, but they still can make my ears sore by morning. Pink: Same length as the purple, but slightly narrower. Least noise reduction of the 3. Things like neighborhood dogs barking, or a fan in the room become background noise. They would probably be completely ineffective blocking snores. However, if I were a mom of young children, I would be confident that I could hear their cries during the night. They are by far the most comfortable for me.

The only ones that do not hurt my ears! I have tried others here on amazon and nothing works! For durability I use them a couple times and discard for hygiene purposes a little steeper for the price but amazing quality!

These are pretty good ear plugs, they are a lot more comfortable to wear to sleep than other ear plugs I have used. They cancel out a lot of noises but you can definitely hear louder noises still, which is because they are not as dense and hard as other ear plugs but if they were they would hurt more when sleeping with them in. What is good about them not canceling out some of the sound is that I can still hear my alarm clock going off, and I can hear my dog bark at me when she has to go outside in the morning. So not total sound cancelation but helps to aid with sleep if you're a light sleeper. But, the bad thing about them not canceling out as much sound as the dense hard ear pugs is that I can definitely still hear my noisy roommates yelling to each other in the morning and they still wake me up, so they only help somewhat with that. Another con with these earplugs is that they get worn out somewhat fast with repeated use every night and when they are worn out they don't compress as small anymore and after a while don't stay in the ear. The new ones work fine so you have to get a new pair when they get worn out, since it comes with so many in the jar it's not really a problem. For the price and how many you get, and how comfortable they are to wear compared to other ear plugs I have used it is a good deal and I would buy them again.

I needed some earplugs to wear to bed. I had been using the green ones in the single pair packs from the PPE cabinet at work but haven't been able to access those due to Covid. I have small ears and am a side sleeper, so anything sticking out over the ear canal can often wake me up. These are narrow but they do have a point. I have found that the point makes them almost too long when inside of the ear, and that if I am not careful the point will hit my ear drum and will definitely cause pain that will wake me up. I also wonder if I sleep on my side if somehow the weight of my head on the pillow also pushes them in further over night? I think that personally they should have a flange on the end so that they can't be fully inserted into the ear and contact the ear drum. Because they're so narrow they're easier to insert than standard size ear plugs and they also do not feel as full (if you have small ears you know what I mean). They're a good option and worth a shot if you think regular size earplugs are uncomfortable. I also like the packaging which keeps all of the ear plugs in a convenient and clean spot.

I am very sensitive to sound, and I just started dorming and my roommate is incredibly loud and makes this awful noise with her mouth when we are trying to sleep. I have no idea what the hell she is doing, but it ain't snoring. It sounds like she is eating food without closing her mouth, which she does anyways but that's been driving me up the wall. These have saved my roommate from being strangled by me. I was shocked at how much noise they really keep out! I sleep with a fan basically right next to my head on my nightstand and I cannot hear it at all. I can hear doors open and close slightly, but I cannot hear my roommate anymore. Of course I do have trouble putting them in my ear sometimes, but I just have to get the hang of it. My ears are also very small and these fit me really nicely. In the morning I do wake up with my ears just a little sore from the ear plugs, but I can live with that. I can sleep really easily with them in and I can lay on either side and they don't bother me! Small tip is to really squish the tip of the earplug, I mean really squish it till it looks like a mini sword and put it in your ear. That's how it will stay in your ear the entire night and block out as much sound as they can.

Took me a while to find these, but I'm so glad I did! What can I say? My husband snores. The word "snores" seems grossly ineffective to describe the level of what he does. It's more like an ear-splitting, metal-on-metal grinding din, with an intermittent whining/whistling snore to break up the monotony on occasion. Then back to the "tossing the jet engine into the tree stump grinder with a chainsaw" compositions. In moments of desperation, I've taken my pillow and gone to the other end of the house, but his choral arrangement follows me. Yes, all the way to the other end of the house. I've kicked my kids out of their rooms and taken over their beds. His "orchestral manoeuvres in the dark" rattle the doors and windows like an old-time cartoon. There's nowhere I can escape from his nighttime music. I've tried other earplugs and even those big bulky ear protection muffs that you wear on gun ranges (I am seriously not kidding. I wish I was). NOTHING WORKED. Some of the bigger earplugs DID blunt the noise, but they never fit well and tended to work their way out halfway through the night. I happened across these one day and decided to give them a try. I rolled my eyes at the pink (c'mon, pink? really?) and never really thought my ears were tiny and dainty enough to need small earplugs, but apparently, they do. Because the first time I put these in, it was a night-and-day difference. The earplugs fit perfectly the first time, and they fill up, closing up all those lil open spots. So okay, this was cool, and almost right away, I noticed how much of a difference they made. They did not block out all his noise. (I don't think anything really could). But they knock out enough of it that I can sleep. It's pretty darn amazing. And I can still hear my alarm in the morning, which is also pretty nice. So, all AAAAAAAAAAAs for amazing. Oh, the only thing I don't like is that when they're brand new, they can hurt my ears just a bit. idk if it's because they're still a bit on the large side for my "dainty ears" (come on -- my ears are not that small!) or what, but I find that they're only really truly comfortable after they're broken in. Unfortunately, they're also less effective at that point. But hey, you can't always have everything, and this is as close to perfect as I've found in the earplug world, so I'm happy!
