I've tried the whole line of Dream Essential sleep masks and this is my favorite for at home use. I love the soft comfortable fabric of this mask. It feels luxurious. The fabric is a pleasure to wear against the skin. I'm a side sleeper and use the mask all night to block morning light. I love the strap system; this is one of the few masks that usually stays on throughout the night. The profile of the mask is also thin which makes it comfortable for all types of sleeper. It's even a great mask to pack in your suitcase for road trips. The Escape has no light leakage unlike some other masks. Best of all it doesn't rest on your eyes. It is a pleasure to use for extended periods. I absolutely love this mask and won't sleep without it.
What I like most about this sleeping mask is that it is highly durable and well made. I've used two other sleeping masks including the Sweet Dreams countered sleeping mask from Dream Essentials which was good but not as durable or light-blocking as this mask. Durability is key for long term use, and the Escape does just that.
The mask is very large though, and heavy so to say. It is quite a bit of material on the face but does the job well. The convenient adjustable straps are a plus too!
The fabric is high quality and will definitely last you over time. The BEST feature is the contoured shape for the eyes which puts NO pressure on the eyes when you open them at night. Perfect mask for anyone!I bought this for my mom as a gift. The quality of the item was high. Nice packaging, and includes the carry bag and ear plugs. Well made and will last a long time. I asked my mom for her opinion for the review, and she said to give it three stars and to say it's good for blocking out the light, but is a bit too heavy on the face. Would prefer it to be lighter in weight. She also said it can be uncomfortable when you are lying on your side or stomach. It is not necessarily a bad product it depends on your sleeping habits/positions and personal preference.I work 3 nights a week and after almost 6 years, it's still difficult for me to sleep during the day. Other masks that I have tried always let light in and half the time I wake up with it on my forehead. This mask is the most perfect mask I have ever used! I get total darkness without it pressing against my eyelids. The first time I wore it, it was still on my face when I woke up!! I highly recommend this mask!!I have been using the Lewis and Clark sleep mask for the last couple years, which is totally great in terms of comfort and it's ability to create total darkness, but was starting to get a little worn out and it also bleeds a blue color all over face and pillow case when you go to bed with wet hair...the latter is really frustrating, but I have learned to just buy blue pillow cases!
I purchased the Dream Essentials sleep mask a few days ago and was surprised by its rigidity. I think some people must be sensitive to fabric touching their eyes, which makes this product a decent candidate for those folks. I generally sleep with my eyes completely closed and would rather have material touching my eye lids than a sleep mask that doesn't stay in one place and can't shift with the movements of my body as I sleep. The velcro also got stuck in my hair all night because it kept falling down toward my neck, despite how tight I would try to tie it. The rigid material gave me an intense headache if I tried to sleep on my side or even turn my head to the side! You can't sleep on your side with this product because the material digs into the side of the head, which also caused a bit of bulging, leaving open spaces where light could seep in.
If you are a consistent back sleeper this product might work for you. I don't recommend this product for anyone who is a light sleeper, toss and turners, or sensitive to harsh contours of face masks on the skin.
