My favorite sleep mask is on sale for Labor Day
Getting quality rest can be a challenge in our loud, fast-paced world. Many of us are exposed to noise and artificial light all day and night, disrupting our natural circadian rhythms.
Even as a sleep expert, I am no exception: I usually have trouble falling asleep. I am also a light sleeper and wake up throughout the night. These struggles led me to try the Manta Sound Sleep Mask.
Manta Sleep offers a variety of customizable sleep masks, from the original to pure silk to therapeutic options like weighted, cooling, or steaming eye masks. It also has additional sleep accessories and products, like blue light glasses, earplugs, and travel pillows.
Manta’s sleep masks have tapered or C-shaped eyecups that are specifically designed for side sleepers. They also have an adjustable hook-and-loop headband so you can create a comfortable, personalized fit to block out all light.
Living in the middle of a city, I decided to try the more expensive Manta Sound Sleep Mask to mask the extraneous noises and bright street lights that usually keep me awake. Thanks to the slim, built-in Bluetooth headphones, I can easily connect to my phone and listen to soothing music, podcasts, or sounds without disturbing my partner.
The mask is lightweight and breathable, and the eyecups are cushioning and roomy, so I don’t feel any unwanted pressure on my eyes or lashes. It’s also machine washable and has an impressive battery life of up to 20 hours.
I’ve been using the mask for a few weeks now and it has helped me fall asleep much faster. I’ve also had a few successful afternoon naps — something I’d never been able to do before.
Watch me test the Manta Sound Sleep Mask.
