My Favorite Sleep Mask Is on Sale at Amazon

I recently embarked on a 30+ hour journey to the Philippines, so I made sure my carry-on was packed wisely to make the most of several flights in economy. 

One thing that’s always in my personal item for early morning, overnight, and long-haul flights is my trusty sleep mask. However, after a 14-hour flight from San Francisco to Manila, I mistakenly left my eye mask on the plane, which meant I had to fly without it on my return trip for the first time in years. This made me realize just how crucial the travel accessory is, so I immediately repurchased it when I returned home — and you should snag one, too.

Zggcd Light Blocking Sleep Mask, $9 with Prime

The mask contours to my face, which allows me to sleep soundly even when the cabin lights are on or sunlight shines through the plane windows. It’s crafted from memory foam and lined with silky smooth fabric that’s breathable and soft. 

Its ergonomic design features two contoured cups that take pressure off users’ eyes and eyelashes, meaning you can open and close your eyes with the mask on, and you won’t have to worry about smudging eye makeup. The mask’s thin sides also ensure excess pressure isn’t concentrated on your temples. 

I appreciate that the mask takes up minimal space in my luggage and that it’s washable for convenient maintenance. I primarily use the sleep mask for travel, but it’s also ideal for night workers, camping, and home use whether you’re a side, back, or stomach sleeper.  More than 4,000 shoppers have snapped up the sleep mask in the past month, which Prime members can snag for just $9 right now, a small price to pay for a good night’s sleep. 

Plus, it has racked up 14,000 perfect ratings from Amazon shoppers. A flight attendant dubbed it an item that “must be in your bag,” sharing that “not even a tiny bit of light comes through” the mask. “I barely notice that I have it on,” someone who works nights raved. “Absolutely made a difference in my ability to sleep.”
