ALASKA BEAR Memory Foam Sleep Mask with 3D Molded Cups, a Contour Pillow for Your Eyes

Love the contoured mask! This mask is different than the others on the market in a good way. I have had quite a few eye masks and this one is by far my favorite. This contoured mask doesn’t rub against my eyes and it makes me feel like my eye care products stay put on my eyes. The straps are adjustable instead of elastic or Velcro. I had a slip silk sleeping mask but I hated the elastic strap, it was so uncomfortable that I could not leave it on for more than a min. For some reason there aren’t many masks with adjustable strap at least I was not able to find any than from this company. This contoured mask is pretty big, thus, it covers my face well and block out the light well. I know this mask will last a long time because I had a regular one strap mask from this company for a long time but I lost it during a recent move. The regular mask I had stayed in shape till the day I lost it. It was soft and comfortable even it was not contoured (tho I wish I had the contoured mask then). If you have any question, ask the seller. They have excellent customer service. I had question about my contoured mask and actually had contacted them about their other products before and both times, they responded promptly and were very helpful. They also gave me great tip on the best way to wear the mask.

- Updated from 3 to 4 stars because their customer service reached out to me about my review below, and they were genuinely super nice and helpful. Always nice to see a company with really wonderful customer support. This would be perfect, and I mean perfect, if there weren't a highly obtrusive seam running across the midpoint of the eye. (Or if you are someone who only, ever, sleeps on their back.) The rest of the fabric is smooth and cool against the skin. The double straps relieve tension pressure while holding the mask on securely. The nose baffle is secure, the eye cups a good comfortable depth. And YET. If I lay on my side, the cup naturally presses against my face- it's just fabric, after all. And then the seam presses against my eye. It's tolerable (for me) to sleep with, but when I wake up I have an indentation on my lid that takes hours to go away and it blurs my vision. The mask cannot be adjusted so that the seam rests above the eyeball while also still blocking light. Awfully disappointed in this major design flaw. Keeping it for plane travel but can't wear it at night. I recommend trying the company's flat product (still with two straps and nose baffle, just no eye cups - and those no seam) instead if you're a side sleeper.

I own two of these masks. Have a large head, have owned several other masks of all sizes over the years. Either too stiff, too small or just plain ill fitting! Love this large size. It is like a “hug” on my face! Extremely soft, easy to adjust, easy to launder, maintain. Hand wash, hang to dry. (I like to use Eucalan no rinse delicate wash, unscented). Very convenient with the two straps. If I need to get up in the middle of the night, easily slip top elastic over top of head to front, mask hangs around my neck by the bottom elastic. Easy to put back on. Amazingly DARK. When necessary, I can easily rest my eyes or take a power nap no matter how bright the surroundings. Purchased a MyPillow around the same time. Changed from primarily side sleeper to sleeping on back. Since wearing this mask over a year now, I have become a well rested sleeping beauty! :)

Yes it is comfortable and feels good on your face...but, even laying on my back I could not get the contoured eye cups to stop folding back into my eyes completely ruining one of the main reasons for having it beyond also causing discomfort. There was no finding any balance between having the straps tight enough to the point where the mask is snug on my head to where the contoured cups folded in towards my eyelids. If the countours didn't fold on to my eyelids I would be very satisfied with this mask, but as it is right now it just makes a comfortable sleep not very likely unless the eye contours decide to stay where they're supposed to. Stick to the cheaper non-eye countoured model and you will be happy. I highly recommend that other one by Alaska Bear but not this one.

It's the most comfortable of three sleep masks I've tried because there is no pressure on my eyes and the straps work without squeezing my head. I managed to get the straps set up so they are "loose" when the mask is in a normal position yet keep the thing from coming off at night. Basically, the top strap kicks in if it slides too far down and the bottom strap starts to pull taught if it slides too far up. This mask has me convinced that two straps are better than one. I've been using it for three weeks and it has stayed on all night 100% of the time with 0 comfort issues. Silk is just objectively the best material for sleep masks since it's super soft, breathable, light, and antimicrobial. Note that it lets in a sliver of light around the nose, which makes it harder to fall asleep in broad daylight. I wasn't looking for a blackout mask so I don't mind, but you might. Also I have a big nose so your mileage may vary.

My wife struggles with sleeping and ambient light is a huge problem. I spent hours and hours researching to find the perfect mask for her. She's tried several over the years, but they don't stay on or they tickle her eyelashes or they're too hot or... I eventually settled on this double strap, silk, contoured eye mask from Alaska Bear. She was happy for the first few weeks. Said it was better than what she'd tried in the past, but after a few weeks, we started to notice dark smudges all over her pillows. I thought she wasn't washing her face or something, but we put on new white pillow cases and she washed her face thoroughly before going to bed. Sadly, the new pillowcases had dark smears all over them in the morning. It was the black eye mask bleeding all over the sheets. While she was liking it and getting used to it, this is useless if it's going to bleed all over the sheets every night. Disappointing and sad. The only reason I'm writing this review now (many months after giving up on the product) is because she's again asking me for a new/different eye mask and I'm starting the research all over again.

I have been wearing a sleep mask for more than 30 years. This mask from Alaska Bear is the first one ever to not let light in. I was surprisingly shocked. I have never found one that kept the light out until now. I really love this one. It is very lite and doesn't not feel like your wearing a sleep mask. I am very happy. I can't believe my luck. I almost gave up until I looked at the Alaska Bear mask and I'm happy I did. Love ❤️❤️😇❤️❤️this sleep mask. One more thing, the mask has two double strands in the back a great touch.

I'm giving this a three-star because it works fabulously to get me to fall asleep fast, but has drawbacks. It really does block out all light and is super comfortable to wear. However, it changes position while I sleep and every night I wore it I woke up in the middle of the night to readjust the mask. So, even though I was falling asleep fast, I couldn't stay asleep.

Feels warmer on my face than my previous silk mask but still, the best eye mask I’ve used. Very comfortable and blocks ALL light.

Good product. The only downside so far is that the straps are really large and do hurt my ears.

I’ve used quite a few sleep masks and unfortunately this one didn’t suit me. I found that between my own face shape, and that of the mask, I was able to see through gaps. Not necessarily the products fault, just not for me. It was super soft though which was lovely!
