Silk Sleep Mask, 16 Momme Mulberry Silk, Padded, Oversized Coverage
Description
A lightweight sleep mask with 16 momme mulberry silk on both outer layers and a soft padded middle layer for cushioning without weight.
Cut oversized for fuller coverage: about 8.3 inches wide, 4.1 inches tall at the sides, and 3.3 inches at the bridge of the nose, so it sits across the eyes and nose rather than perched on top of them.
At 16 momme, the silk is on the lighter, softer end of the range. The heavier 19 momme mask is the denser, more durable option if you prefer that.
Why It Matters
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 16 momme this is the lighter of the two silk masks, softer and less substantial than the 19 momme version.
