Designed to allow Rapid Eye Movement (REM), the ultra-soft Lights Out Sleep Mask promotes deep, rejuvenating slumber. Scientists have long known that REM sleep is the most crucial part of the sleep cycle. This lightweight, luxuriously cushioned mask blocks out light, and is specially molded to allow complete eye movement (unlike many eye shades that can press against your eyes) for a deeper, more restful sleep. Has an elasticized strap with Velcro closure for a comfortable fit. (9½ x 3¾ x ¼"; 1 oz)

Hand wash and lay flat to dry

•   I purchased one 2 years ago and just purchased a new one in December 09 as a replacement. These are very comfy and durable. The strap will eventually stretch out a bit after a years worth of use. My first one even got scooped up in the laundry and went through the wash cycle by accident, but it remained intact and kept its shape with no damage. The only reason for purchasing the second mask was the strap issue which happened prior to the wash cycle incident....and I wanted a different color.

•   My husband keeps these everywhere...for napping, in the car, etc. and our daughter-in-law loves them too because of their shape which makes them very comfortable. She always takes them with her on an airplane.

  What a sleep mask!
By Roberta R., MO in January, 2010

•   This is so great. It allows your eyes to move naturally. Sooo comfortable. I had another mask that I hated. I am so glad I found this one. I ordered one for me and the hubs. I have told all my nurse friends that work the night shift to get one! HIGHLY RECOMMEND

  Blocks the light in comfort!
By Chris H., NY in January, 2010

•   I keep coming back to Magellan's site to order more of these. As a migraine sufferer, I keep one for travel, one in the nightstand, one in each car's glovebox... you get the idea. My sons took them to college and love them. One was on a ship for a semester where the lights were never completely out... his eye mask was used every night! These masks encourage deep sleep even during daytime naps. It is all in the contour and the material. Excellent product!

  With this mask I could sleep all day!
By M D., FL in January, 2010

•   Fabulous! Really keeps the light out and keeps your eyes warm and cozy too. If it weren't for my family waking me up, I'd sleep all day!

  Lights Out Sleep Mask
By Catherine W., FL in January, 2010

•   This sleep mask is very comfortable over the eyes with enough room between the eyes and the mask to open your eyes without being crushed by the padding. My only issue is the velcro fastener which is directly in the back of the head and is uncomfortable when sleeping on my back as my head hits it directly on the spot.

•   it's wonderful - no pressure on the old eyeballs! Less light leakage than others i have tried!

  Sleep Mask
By Anonymous in January, 2010

•   Since I purchased the lights out sleep mask, I have been getting a good night's sleep. The mask filters out all the light.

  BLISS!
By K A., FL in December, 2009

•   THE most comfortable sleep mask I've ever had. Room for one's eyes, and easy-on-the-head strap. Plan on getting more of these. Highly recommended!

  Please my fussy girlfriend
By Mark S., CA in November, 2009

•   My girlfriend has tried lots of sleep masks. She thinks some are too thick, some are too thin, some are too small, etc. However, she liked this one.

  fantastic eye mask
By louise u., BC in November, 2009

•   i am a lover of eye masks which are addictive once you realize how well you sleep with them ,i have tried many different eyemasks which have all needed repacing due to loosening on the face ,this one is ajustable comfortable blocks out all light and doent rub on your eyes while you sleep i wear mine everynight and found it to be the best one ive had doent leavemarks on your face and is seamless well woth buying for home and travel

  Great but...
By Danielle L., ID in November, 2009

•   This sleep mask is great as advertised -- light weight, room for eye movement, actually blocks the light...but as other reviewers have noted, it is a bit big. Not a huge deal, won't take long to alter the strap, but if the manurfacturer is looking at these reviews, it sure would be nice for the velcro to go a bit longer along the strap.

  Sleep masks
By Charlie B., IT in November, 2009

•   A bit pricey but great.
Now my eyelashes can flutter when my eyes open and close, without my feeling stuck behind the mask.

I would give them a five star rating if the price was less.


  Magellan's sleep mask
By Marian M. M., FL in October, 2009

•   Since I use a sleep mask on a daily basis, in addition to when I travel, I wore the first one out. I tried ordering a less expensive mask but it was uncomfortable to wear. . I particularly like the way your mask fits comfortably over the nose and also molded around the eyes allowing eye movements.

  BEST EVER!!
By christine c., OH in October, 2009

•   I have used sleep masks for years ever since eye surgery left me with very dry eyes. Masks help prevent more drying while I sleep because I like to have a fan running. This is the most comfortable ever - it doesn't push against my eyes and smash my eyelashes. I can even blink with it on. It's very light weight and totally shuts out the light when my husband is reading. I had one like this for a while and ordered 2 more so I will always have one! My husband took my old one and he even likes

  Perfect item
By Bob F., TX in October, 2009

•   Works great. Well designed. Comfortable. Can't tell you have it on.

  The best I have tried so far
By sydney p., WA in October, 2009

•   I have tried other sleep masks and they either fall off. Or they bug me so much that I rip them off. These did neither. I went to bed a 8 am and did not wake till 3 pm. The cutout for your eyelashes are great. If you work nights or just need to sleep and light bothers you try these.

  Sleep Mask a Good Purchase
By Lois L., PA in October, 2009

•   This is my second sleep mask and it works very well, particulary on the plane. I even wear it nightly at home. My only complaint is that it doesn't last long enough with regular use -- seems to stretch out of shape, but I use it until it falls apart and then I get another one!

  Lights Out Sleep Mask
By Doris P., FL in October, 2009

•   This product is ok but I like my softer one better. The velcroe attachment gets stuck in my hair. Any side sleeping makes the sleep mask move around too much.

  IN FLIGHT AND IN CAR COMFORT
By REbecca K., TN in September, 2009

•   I use the in flight back of the seat organizer in my car. It hangs beautifully from a suction cup about 4" up on the window. This puts my phone, iPod, lights out sleep mask, Kendal and a light blanket within easy reach and out of the way of my feet where these travel comfort items used to sit.

  Most comfotable sleepmask out there
By Jan H., MD in September, 2009

•   Love the concave covers of the eyes so there is not pressure on the eyes, Lightweight. Used it on a 42 hours trip to INdoneisa on 4 flights. Blacks things out particualy well when sitting in airplane chair.

We will see how well it holds up under use--but in terms of comfort--the best.


  wonderful comfort
By Morris S., CO in September, 2009

•   These masks keep it off your eyes for a comfortable sleep. Nice material is also comfortable.

  The Best Masks I Have Found!
By Nancie S., NH in September, 2009

•   I am reordering a few more of these sleep masks. I use them for travel and at home. The fabric is comfy and the molded eyes really makes this product the best I have ever found! I lose mine in hotels regularly; that's why I will more.

  Fix the strap
By Shirlee K., WA in September, 2009

•   I love the mask itself, but the strap isn't so good for back sleepers. When you velcro the ends together, it creates a bit of a bulge that hits at the wrong place. The mask itself is great - room to move your eyes, but does a really good job at blocking out the light.

  great mask
By Beth B., CA in September, 2009

•   I've tried several sleep masks before and this is the best. It's not perfect in that you still know you have a mask on, but it's soft, doesn't squish your eyes and easily adjustable. My husband says I look like a bug with it on but I guess you can't have everything.

  Not Quite as I Expected
By Teresa E., IL in September, 2009

•   I like the softness, the color, and the it cups away from the eyes. What I don't like is the nose shape. It is big enough for a very large nose, but to large for mine, therefore light seeps in from around my nose. I guess I will have to ask my mom to help me tailor it to my size.

  Sleep mask
By Anonymous in September, 2009

•   I'm pleased with the way the sleep mask fits and is light weight.

  Wonderful!
By Elizabeth W., FL in August, 2009

•   This is the best sleep mask ever! It is very comfortable.

  Lights Out Sleep Mask
By Terry W., TX in August, 2009

•   After trying these sleep masks - we use them every night. No sleep mask will fit everyone, but the softness of this one helps it mold to your face and gives plenty of room for those REM eye flutters.

I was shocked that my husband took to them immediately - I thought he would think they were fussy - but the deeper and more restful sleep you get will convince you.


  Use it everywhere
By Ann R., TX in August, 2009

•   I must have a very dark environment in order to go to sleep and I love this mask. I use it at home when my husband is not ready to sleep when I am, I use it in the car, and on planes. It is comfortable , easy to adjust strap, and really does a great light-blocking job. This mask is SOOOOO much better than any other I have tried.

  Night night
By P J., CT in August, 2009

•   I work grave yard and so I sleep in the daytime. This mask works great really blocks out any light in the room. I find that my eyes are more relaxed because they don't hit the mask like my old mask. Love this mask. From the grave yard night night......


  Don't Travel Without It!
By Terry L., NY in August, 2009

•   Where most masks would leave gaps, this once moulds perfectly around my nose and blocks out all light. It's accompanied me on countless flights but I also use it at home because sometimes I (gasp!) sleep with my eyes open and it keeps the light from interfering with my sleep. I also experienced a little bit of fraying along the edges, but it was nothing a dab of fabric glue couldn't handle. Couple this mask with a pair of great earplugs on a flight, and it really is "Lights Out!".

  fairly good product
By Helen M., ND in August, 2009

•   I like the shape of the product in that it does not put pressure on the eyes while sleeping. I do think it is rather expensive considering the fact that the "inside" fabric separates from the "filling" very soon. After separating, that layer of fabric tends to crinkle up when I use it.

  Great Product
By MARY S., TX in July, 2009

•   Super comfortable & adjustable. Truly shuts out all light and is so light-weight you hardly know it's there. Highly recommend.

  Great!
By Betsie Z., GA in July, 2009

•   If one isn't to vain to wear a sleep mask anyway, this is a great one! Room to blink and and adjustable strap for the perfect fit. I bought 2 so we could have his and hers! Now if we could just get the children to sleep on the plane, too.....

  most comfortable mask I've used
By Susan H., MA in July, 2009

•   This is truly comfortable. You can blink and move your eyes without any binding.

  Awsome Product
By Misty W., TN in July, 2009

•   I bought my husband and I these sleep masks and we love them. It is the best sleep masks we ever had. They are comfortable and they block out the light.

  Great for us night workers!!
By Tanya B., MA in July, 2009

•   The sleep mask works very well for blocking out light. My wife and I work nights and sleep during the day and it has come in very handy. We also use them when we travel and stay at inns that do not have dark curtains or shades--we don't want to get up at the crack of dawn!

  The precious weekends...
By Sharon L., CA in July, 2009

•   I'm able to turn over and go back to sleep after the sun comes up on weekends...the sleep mask has become precious to me.

  Pretty Good
By C D., OR in July, 2009

•   The sleep mask certainly blocks out all light. My only complaint is I often wake up and it's fallen off in my sleep.

  light leaks
By Janet L., PA in July, 2009

•   This was comfortable and easy to pack, but light did leak in from below around the nose piece.

By Anonymous in July, 2009

•   It feels wonderful, blocks the light ,
its very light weight, and the colors are very nice.


  Wake up Refreshed
By Gloria M., AB in June, 2009

•   These sleep masks are awesome, I find they block out all the light.
They are priced great, and good quality.


  lights out sleep mask
By SHARON C., IN in May, 2009

•   I am so pleased with this product. I work 12hr shifts at night and it is very important that I be able to sleep during the day. This sleep mask has allowed me to be able to do that. It is wonderful. Light weight, completely blocks the day light, very, very comfortable.

  Best eye mask ever!
By Suzanne K., IN in May, 2009

•   This eye mask is the best I've ever had. It does look slightly strange, but boy does it do the job. It is so comfortable to wear, and you don't have that annoying feeling when your lashes touch the mask. Great purchase!

  The Best Sleep Mask!
By Cindy J., TX in May, 2009

•   I have tried several sleep masks and this is by far the most comfortable and unobtrusive to the eyes. It blocks light effectively and is not binding on the nose or head.

  THE BEST!!!
By Nancy C., NY in May, 2009

•   These are the VERY BEST, and we've tried quite a few eye masks. My husband and I have been using them for several months. Recently we purchased 4 more for family members. They block out the light and leave room for your eyes to move during REM sleep. Besides using them for travel, we also use them at home when we want to sleep a little late, and want to block out the morning sun.

  Excellent
By Bernadette I., HI in May, 2009

•   Very lightweight so it doesn't even feel like you've got it on! Only wish it had a slightly longer velcro strip for those of us with smaller heads.

  Very Effective
By Retta F., IL in April, 2009

•   This sleep mask was very comfortable and very effective at blocking the light. The design didn't press on my eyelids and that increased the comfort. I am very pleased.

  Perfect sleep mask

•   This is a great product

  Comfortable
By Dana V., CA in April, 2009

•   Other sleep masks I've tried were not comfortable, even though it blocked the light. With this mask, you are also able to open and close your eyes without rubbing your eyelids against it. The padding also helps make for a comfortable rest.

  Fits perfectly
By Shannon W., NV in April, 2009

•   Loved this product. It wasn't too tight around your head (it's adjustable) and the cut out for your nose is perfect...no light gets it! Great product

  Very good sleep mask
By Sandra P., FL in April, 2009

•   The mask fits comfortably, blocks light very well, having velco closure makes it easy to put on. Would buy again. Perhaps I will as gifts.

  Excellent Excellent Product
By Sandra I., HI in April, 2009

•   I was very very very pleased. Better sleep, with no irritation to eyes, very very comfortable, more refreshed because of it. Thank you for designing such a fabulous product! I've shared the info with others.

  Sleep Masks Work
By Jacqueline O., NY in March, 2009

•   It is difficult for me to sleep with light in the room. The sleep mask is very comfortable as there is room for the eyes to blink. It completely darkens the room. I keep one in my travel gear for use on the plane & hotel rooms; one next to my bed at home and one in my recliner for times I'm sleepy watching tv.

  Works Wonders
By gina n., TN in March, 2009

•   While working night shift and sleeping during the day I got very few worthy hours of sleep. Since purchasing these I sleep soundly during the day. I would have paid twice the amount for them.

  Works like a gem!
By Sandra K., PA in March, 2009

•   I used this mask on my recent trip to China and it really helped me to sleep both on the airplane and at night in my hotel room. It is very comfortable and blocks the light really well. I highly recommend it!

  A WINNER!
By Cleta M., HI in March, 2009

•   Absolutely the best. Very lightweight and with the adjustable strap, there is no pressure on face or eyelids. Blocks out all the light. I'm awake just long enough to say "aaahh!" My search has definitely ended with this product.

  easy to wear
By Marnie M., ON in March, 2009

•   This sleep mask is the most comfortable I've tried. If you have a short, upturned nose like mine you may need to trim a bit off the nose area to give it a better fit. For those who have complained about the tiny sliver of light that may leak in, why are you trying to sleep with your eyes open?

  Lights out is Awsome
By Lisa S., OK in March, 2009

•   I work nights and have had such a difficult time getting and staying asleep. I have tried multiple items and medications. This mask works better than the medications for me. If I lay there awake, and open my eyes, I see nothing therefore it is easier for my eyes and mind to not focus on something else and prevent further sleep. Now if my eyes open, No distractions. Just me and my thoughts, then peaceful rest.

  comfortable
By Ann H., CA in March, 2009

•   Lightweight and comfortable...GREAT!

  Best Sleep
By Adelle C., DC in March, 2009

•   I've tried hundreds of masks before and never have found one I liked--seemed that every mask I wore my eyelashes would flutter against the fabric and wake me up. With this mask I never had a problem. I used it on a recent trip overseas and slept through the 10 hour flight. Unfortunately, I left it on the plane on my way back to DC so now I must get another for my sleepless nights. Great product, would recommend to ANYONE...even the first time user!

  Pretty comfortable
By C.E. B., CA in March, 2009

•   I like this mask because it doesn't touch my eyelids. When it's seated properly I can open my eyes. I am a side sleeper and it does gap around the nose a little, but it's so much more comfortable than several others that I've tried I'm willing to put up with the bit of light that seeps in. I should probably wear it tighter around my head (I like the fact that the band is adjustable) but so far I'm okay with how it works.

  Comfortable but lets in light
By Mary L., TX in March, 2009

•   This is more comfortable than other sleep masks that I have tried but it does let in light at the bottom. The fabric is soft and not irritating. The elastic band is comfortable--moreso than any other sleep mask I've used.

  So Comfy
By Tina B., CA in February, 2009

•   This mask has been a God send. I use it at home while my husband is watching tv. It's so comfortable and doesn't let any light through. I would recommend this product to anyone, that has a hard time falling asleep and can't stand things on their faces. This product allows eye movement and is very soft and light that you don't notice it on your face.

  Best Sleep Mask
By Denise H., ON in February, 2009

•   This product is the best sleep mask ever!! I purchased 1 for myself and my daughter and can't say anything but awesome! They are so lightweight and comfortable keeps the light out 100% and I have never slept better. Anyone wishing to block out the light and sleep like a baby should definitly purchase this product. Thanks Magellan's for an amazing product

  No light
By Anonymous in February, 2009

•   If you can see light at the bottom of the mask I found that if you fold the nose piece under it totally blocks out all light...something none of my other masks do.

  Another Home Run For Magellan's
By Cindy D., AK in January, 2009

•   I have recently discovered Magellan's and I am so pleased with every item I have ordered. And the shipping is so prompt! I absolutely love Magellan's! I recently received the Lights Out Sleep Mask. Previous sleep masks that I have purchased have pressed too close to my eyes. The Lights Out Sleep Mask is so much more comfortable and it helps me sleep so much better. I would recommend this product to anyone that uses a sleep mask. .

  Great Light Blocker!
By Sandy B., IL in January, 2009

•   I purchased this mask for travel, and I used it on a recent trip. It really does a great job of blocking out light without being uncomfortable. It doesn't leave little strap lines on my face as other masks have, and the rounded molded eye portion of the mask leaves eye makeup untouched.That's a real plus for travel when you don't want to be mortified when you remove the mask!

  Comfortable but Poorly Made
By Dennis H., VA in January, 2009

•   The mask is soft to touch and wear. It fits well and is ok but not excellent for keeping out light. I'm very disappointed in the problem of the outer material separating from the foam after only a few months. There is no reason for such a poor quality product from Magellan's otherwise fine line of travel products. I still use it occasionally, but not as much as I did before the fabric separated. It's just a nuisance to put on now. MAGELLAN: use your corporate "clout" and get this problem fixed.

  Best Mask

•   I use a mask every night. This is the best mask I've found or used in the past 10 years.

  Perfect sleep
By Anonymous in January, 2009

•   This eye mask is lightweight, easy to put on and does not press on your eyes. It is perfect for those long haul flights where you seat partner is reading or if light interrupts your sleep.

By Donna P., TX in December, 2008

•   I'm not impressed with this product, they are not as comfortable as the regular night masks but they do keep the light out. I'm still using my old mask.

  sleep mask
By Anonymous in December, 2008

•   This mask was quite good. The buble over the eye really does make sleeping easier. It was not completely light-tight around the nose, but good enough to sleep. I would buy it again.

  Enter your private world
By Leonard S., CA in November, 2008

•   Once you put on the LIGHTS OUT SLEEP MASK, you'll find yourself entering your own private world. With the molded fitting nice and snug, but comfortable, all the outside light is blocked out and restful sleep, if desired , is on its way.

  PERFECT FOR THE NOISY PLANE
By LAVERNE M., TX in November, 2008

•   THIS SLEEP MASK WAS PERFECT FOR MY 12 HOUR FLIGHT BACK FROMM ISRAEL. I WAS ABLE TO SLEEP DESPITE THE LIGHTS AND MOVIES GOING ON.

  Lights out sleep mask
By Peter K., AZ in November, 2008

•   This is very light but I find the stiffer fabric which keeps its shape and molding does not mold quite as tightly around my nose and when using it lying in bed light comes through from the bottom.Sitting up in an aeroplane seat however this is not as big an issue.

  leaks light
By Penelope, CA in November, 2008

•   THis is a very comfortable eye mask but it does not keep the light out at the bottom. I am returning it.

  Well-designed - lightweight, comfortable, and effective
By Anonymous in November, 2008

•   This mask is simple but well thought out. It packs up nicely small to tuck into a convenient pocket in my carry-on. It goes on and off easily with a good, adjustable fit. It doesn't leak light at any point (once adjusted and settled on the face). the fabric on the inside is soft, with no poky stitching anywhere. I especially like that it's available in colors; the turquoise I got is distinctive and easy to find even in my purse even after the general lights in the plane go down on a night flight

By A C., TX in November, 2008
•   I am an amateur astronomer and many times we stay up all night viewing and then sleep during the day. I went to a recent star party where I camped out in a tent. These shades allowed me to sleep during the day. I could not even tell they were on and slept for many hours in the daytime. I highly recommend these shades.

By Anonymous in November, 2008
•   There is more comfortable, as well as light-blocking, sleep mask that I have ever used. With my light-sensitive eyes, I use it everywhere--home(s) (even just for a quick "naptime") and travel. I own several already to keep them stashed in handy places and am going to order another. Hope you always have this "Lights Out" sleep mask available!

By Judith J., MI in October, 2008
•   This product is wonderful. I suffer from migraines and have had a lights out sleep mask for over a year. It is amazing that if you want to rest on a sunny day or in a plane this mask blocks out all light and allows your eyes to move. It is comfortable. I used it on a plane trip and it even worked over my glasses. I left my old mask on the plane and was delighted that I found this product in your catalog. Thank you!

By elaine g., OR in October, 2008
•   the best sleep mask ever. very light and comfortable, blocks light comfortably, and gives your eyes room to move i would highly recommend this product

By WANDA W., MS in October, 2008
•   I LOVE MY MASK. BEST ONE I HAVE EVER BOUGHT. I WEAR ONE EVERY NIGHT. IT REALLY BLOCKS OUT THE LIGHT. THANKS.

By McKenzie M., NC in October, 2008
•   Although the product does an awesome job of blocking out light i found it didn't really stay on my head very well and was some what uncomfortable

By Anonymous in October, 2008
•   Mask is quite comfortable, but in order to keep it pressed tight to the face (and eliminate light leaks), the band must be quite tight - neither comfortable, or kind to arriving with hairstyle intact. Great for sleeping at home, however!

By Linda H., GA in September, 2008
•   I enjoyed this sleep mask better than others I've tried (or those that the airlines used to provide for longer trips). I like the versatile sizing and the cooler fabric.

By Jac M., CA in September, 2008
•   I have been using this great mask for a long time now and was so disappointed when I left my black one on a plane, I call as soon as I could and ordered a bright pink one so now I can always find it should it get away from me again! These are fabulous to use in travel with eye make up on because your eyes are not smashed down!

By Debbie R., IL in September, 2008
•   I love this sleep mask. It is soft and very comfortable. You can adjust the tightness very easily. You can still see a little light from the bottom of the mask when you open your eyes but it is really worth the money and I will probably buy another one.

By Anonymous in September, 2008
•   Mask was very comfortable since the adjustable band with the velcro allowed for a snug fit. Soft material and molded shape around nose and eyes worked well to prevent light leaks

By Melanie, AE in August, 2008
•   The lights out sleep mask works great. I use it frequently as I have chronic migraines and the mask blocks the light beautifully. Migraines cause me to be extremely light sensitive and this mask is great, I also like that it doesn't press on my eyes like other masks do. Very good product. Highly recommend.

By Heather in August, 2008
•   I am very disappointed by this mask. Despite numerous adjustments it simply is not comfortable. If I tighten the band enough that the mask does not slip off of my face during the night it presses against my eyelids and is uncofmortable. Save your money.

By Jennifer D., OH in August, 2008
•   Sorry, had to return the 2 I ordered. Light came in around the nose piece. My nose was probably bigger than it was made for.

•   I bought two of these masks and with each of them within a month they began to fray apart at the nose. Little annoying strings would tickle my nose as I was trying to fall asleep. At first I thought this a fluke until it happened exactly the same way on the second one. Not recommended.

•   I work nights and also like fresh air in my bedroom so a sleep mask is essential. After years of long distance travel and cheap masks, this one was heaven sent! I've worn out two already and working on my third. I even gave one to a dear (91 year old)friend in the hospital who had trouble sleeping with the ambient light and it worked for her, too. When the fabric separated at the edges, I just took some whip-stiches over the affected area (across the nose) and it was as good as ever. My first two lasted for over three years of daily use. My Airedales like the masks as well! Flipper just stole one from under my pillow and took it outside! (She dropped it and left it as soon as I told her to do so.) I think see feels it would be better than a paw across the eyes when I'm reading in bed and she wants to sleep! Seriously, this is the best design I've encountered and highly recommend it for anyone who needs to block light comfortably.

•   Like your first reviewer I plan to order another, perhaps two. I liked the idea of the cups for the eyes without having foam next to my face as some eye masks do, but mostly I wanted to increase the amount of complete or nearly complete darkness because that is when the body produces melatonin, a hormone that plays a part in fighting neoplasia (new growths/tumors) and is involved in a range of other health functions in the body. Melatonin levels decrease with age, and the melatonin one's own body produces is best so darkness is good, or as one writer quipped in Science News about a decade ago, the reduction in melatonin production from too much light is "the dark side of light".What I didn't expect was that my dreams would become more pleasant, but they did so I guess that the ambient light perhaps was disrupting the quality of my dreams as well. Now, to convince equipment manufacturers that any lights they have on equipment that is on at night should be amber (the least disruptive color rather than blue (the worst) or rather than the second worst: those ubiquitous green lights. Thanks for carrying a fine product for a good price!

•   To avoid any indentation or flattening of your hair, just gently use your fingers to lift the hair to lay over the mask and you won't get pressure marks on the hair---you might even get a bouffant hair style by morning's light!

•   It works very well, and is the best one I ever had. One defect is that the fabric cover separates from the foam body after a while. The reason may be that I use it every night, even when am not traveling. In any event, I just ordered three of them.

•   I purchased this mask for my wife whom works off shifts. She was very pleased with it, saying it's far superior than her previous mask. I'm going to order another while it's still available!

•   I have a lot of difficulty sleeping on planes. This sleep mask is good, but I would not say great. I found the band to be uncomfotable after a while and had to loosen it, which caused light to leak in. Overall, though, I was satisfied with this product--I'm not sure there is anything better out there.

By Anonymous
•   I really like this mask. It's so comfortable and really does the job. I thought I'd just use it on the plane but found it helpful in one of the hotels as well.

By Anonymous
•   If Magellan's could have this mask made with a bound edge preventing the materials from separating in use it would be the perfect sleep mask, and worth every dime of any premium pricing involved.

By Anonymous
•   This mask is the best I have found by far . It doesn't press on your eyes, conforms to the face and stays in postion, even when sleeping on your side. It's great for travel but I also use it at home. I'm ordering a second one.

By Anonymous
•   I bought this eye mask because I liked the way it looks like a face as opposed to those flat ones. I used it on a flight and I was knocked out. I NEVER can sleep on a plane. I can't wait to use them again on my flight to Spain.

•   I am notoriously light sensitive -- silk sleep masks do nothing for me. This sleep mask is terrific. It is soft, it molds to your face, and it blocks the light effectively, a great help in hotel rooms where you can't figure out how to get the blinds completely shut.

By Anonymous
•   I cannot sleep with even the tiniest amount of light. I own several different sleep masks but found they press uncomfortably on my eyes. I bought the Lights Out Sleep Mask recently, and I am addicted! No pressure on my eyes, and I swear I am sleeping better!

By Anonymous
•   I have been travelling with this exclusively.

By Anonymous
•   I used this mask on a trans-Pacific flight. This completely blocks out light and is by far superior to the complimentary-type masks. Also, it does not constrict breathing through the nose. The soft material collapses easily, so I have no concerns packing it in a small pocket. Good product.

By Anonymous
•   If you are going to have lazer surgery on your eyes, get this product! To prevent rubbing your eyes during sleep, the doctor will give you plastic half-balls to tape over your eyes. This works just as well (my doctor approved) and was definitely more comfortable. No pressure on your eyes at all! It will be the best under $10 investment you will ever make, and you can use it later in hotels or on the plane!

By Anonymous
•   These are very effective. They don't press on your eyes like typical sleep masks. You will still have an unattractive mark pressed into your hair if you wear them for 4-8 hours, but that may be inevitable.

By Anonymous
•   Throw all those other useless masks you have out and buy this one. You could fall asleep outside in the middle of the day with this mask...it does NOT press on your eyes and is so soft and fits around the bridge of your nose instead of pressing on it. Get this!

By Anonymous
•   Unfortunately I am very sensitive to light in my sleep patterns so have used a sleep mask for several years .. as well as while sleeping on planes. I've been quite pleasantly surprised to find that for whatever reason my sleep has been deeper and more refreshed since using this mask .. the REM sleep? I'm not a scientist so I don't know why .. I just know I'm ordered another one!

•   I bought three sets of these eyeshades for my family and me and no one was happy with them because the straps were too short. Otherwise they would have been fine. I had to replace with another brand.

By Anonymous
•   This mask is great because it allows you to open and close your eyelids under it. BUT the the fabric separates from the foam inside, leaving the fabric loose which may then begin to dangle, tickling your face and not fit your face as well and not allow your eyes to open under it as well, which defeats the purpose. This has happened on both pair I've had and I really wish they'd make these things to last longer than 6 mo. to a year. Very good design but poor construction. If you only use it when traveling it will probably last longer but with nightly use it doesn't last long enough.

By Anonymous
•   Very good, apart from the fact the elastic looses its form fairly quickly making the fit worse and worse until it ends up round your neck by the end of the night. This isnt thru excessive washing either.

By Anonymous
•   I had to return mine. It didn't block the light well and was pressing on my nose too much.

By Anonymous
•   I also love this mask but as another customer mentioned, the fabric separated after I washed the mask a few times following instructions. I still use it and it works well, but I'll probably have to buy more to replace it.

By Anonymous
•   They work very well - until they start falling apart! I've had two of them and in both cases the fabric separated in a matter of weeks.

  Repeat Customer

•   I purchased one 2 years ago and just purchased a new one in December 09 as a replacement. These are very comfy and durable. The strap will eventually stretch out a bit after a years worth of use. My first one even got scooped up in the laundry and went through the wash cycle by accident, but it remained intact and kept its shape with no damage. The only reason for purchasing the second mask was the strap issue which happened prior to the wash cycle incident....and I wanted a different color.

•   My husband keeps these everywhere...for napping, in the car, etc. and our daughter-in-law loves them too because of their shape which makes them very comfortable. She always takes them with her on an airplane.

  What a sleep mask!
By Roberta R., MO in January, 2010

•   This is so great. It allows your eyes to move naturally. Sooo comfortable. I had another mask that I hated. I am so glad I found this one. I ordered one for me and the hubs. I have told all my nurse friends that work the night shift to get one! HIGHLY RECOMMEND

  Blocks the light in comfort!

•   I keep coming back to Magellan's site to order more of these. As a migraine sufferer, I keep one for travel, one in the nightstand, one in each car's glovebox... you get the idea. My sons took them to college and love them. One was on a ship for a semester where the lights were never completely out... his eye mask was used every night! These masks encourage deep sleep even during daytime naps. It is all in the contour and the material. Excellent product!

  With this mask I could sleep all day!
By M D., FL in January, 2010

•   Fabulous! Really keeps the light out and keeps your eyes warm and cozy too. If it weren't for my family waking me up, I'd sleep all day!
