This is the most posh eye mask I have, hands down. The wide band that goes over the ears and the very wide mask portion is super comfortable and blocks out almost all light except the inevitable spaces down by the nose, which are always going to be a thing unless you have contoured eye cups inside the mask or something.
I prefer this, because I also have blackout curtains that I can utilize if it is imperative that I have to block out *all* light.
The cushioning is perfect, not too much or too little, and the mask fits well and the elastic is generous. The wide band is brilliant - the narrow elastic bands are always a problem.
The one complaint I have is that the elastic, while high quality (you can tell just by stretching it that it's not flimsy or poorly made), is just a *little* too tight for my particular head, and so because of that it will wind up triggering migraines because I cannot tolerate *any* pressure on or around my head. I can't even wear most hats because of that issue, and even my eyeglasses are a problem sometimes.
Unless I can figure out a way to stretch the elastic juuuust enough for it to be the perfect pressure for my head, I won't be able to use this often.
This would be solved by making it adjustable and including a closure arrangement such as a velcro tab or even low-profile flat snaps that would allow a person to make small adjustments to the size. Between that and the excellent quality of elastic, it would be customisable for each wearer and…
