Silk Sleep Mask, 19 Momme Mulberry Silk, Light Blocking, Soft Finish

Regular price $36.99
Description

A sleep mask made with 19 momme mulberry silk. Momme measures silk weight, and 19 sits at the denser, more substantial end of the range used in sleepwear, so the fabric drapes heavier and holds up better through repeated washing than lighter grades.

Silk sits smoothly against skin and does not catch on lashes or brows.

If you prefer something lighter, the 16 momme mask is the softer, more lightweight option.

Why It Matters
Sleep is often one of the first things treatment disrupts. Steroids given with chemotherapy commonly cause insomnia, and fatigue can mean sleeping at hours when it is not dark.

Light works against you either way. Even modest exposure suppresses melatonin and shifts the body clock later. Blocking it is one of the few things you can adjust yourself, without a prescription or anyone's permission. Caregivers lose sleep through this too, and the same thing helps.

Silk is the gentler surface if your skin has become reactive or your lashes and brows are thinning. At 19 momme this is the denser of the two silk masks, so it drapes heavier and wears longer.
