Comparison of 7 different sleep masks
For our family’s Alaska trip this summer, in the Land of the Midnight Sun, we knew we would need some kind of light-blocker in order to get a decent sleep. It was really hard to tell from the photos, descriptions, and reviews, which products were actually superior, so we purchased 7 different sleep masks. After trying all of them for two weeks, we can give other buyers our comparative reviews. Listed below in rank order from our best to worst, here are the 7 masks we tried: ZGGCD • This was the first one that I tried, and it worked so great. After this one, the other masks were okay, but they were just not quite as good as this one. (except for MZOO which was very, very similar). This ZGGCD mask was priced fairly at $9.99. MZOO • Another great model. Nearly identical to the ZGGCD brand, but it has a large MZOO brand printed on the front. And it cost twice as much. (I paid $19.99) LKY • These masks came as a 3-pack for $9.99. They were an economical option that worked surprisingly well, and were not uncomfortable. These were unexpectedly much smaller than the other masks, but they really did work fine. The band seemed tight, but it was adjustable – I guess I just never adjusted it. These masks kept the light out, and the eye wells were deep enough. Two of my college kids liked them well enough that they borrowed these for another trip they are taking next month. Alaska Bear • I figured this mask was just made for the Midnight Sun! Quite a bit smaller than the extra plush masks. Not very thick either, but again to my surprise, the small masks worked just as well as the luxury models. The price for this one was on the upper end ($14.99). Zenssia • The satin looked and felt luxurious, and at the $19.99 price, it tied with MZOO for being the most expensive mask we tried. The velcro band stays secure, and did not get caught in my hair. The cloth over the ears actually felt nice. But, I can’t say this mask was nice to sleep in. If you didn’t keep the band tight, the mask sort of shifts or spins over my face as I move. And if I pulled the band tight, it seemed to put all the pressure right across my eyes. So this mask was a no-go. LitBear • At $14.39, this was on the pricier end. There is a nose bridge piece that helps block any sneaks of light, but I preferred the superior comfort of the masks that didn’t have that extra fabric bridge, over having every last peep of light obliterated. I can say the nose bridge had a nice cool feeling that I liked. But the critical problem for me was that my lashes brushed on the inside of this mask. MABAO • The mesh fabric on the outside does not speak comfort, but I realize that the outside fabric does not really rub on the skin, so it shouldn’t matter. However, the eye pockets in this one were just too shallow. I hadn’t even known that shallow eye wells could be a problem, but I am sure glad we had other masks with the deep eye wells. We bought this MABAO mask at the budget price of $5.99 I might have mentioned that I am a real mover in my sleep, and sometimes these masks fell off, but to my surprise that didn’t happen often. Many in the family are side-sleepers, and none had complaints about buckles or straps pressing into their heads. After trying these 7 masks, we felt we could offer some helpful feedback to other shoppers. My best two recommendations were ZGGCD ($9.99) as the best mask of all, and LKY which was a decent and functional mask, and there were THREE masks for the same price. Then there were the three that I just could not get comfortable with: Zennsia, LitBear, and MABAO. I wouldn’t recommend these. Happy travels everyone!

Fantastic purchase for most anyone
Excellent customer service from this brand. I've been trying to find an eye mask that works while I'm sleeping with my full mask cpap, and it's been tough. I tried two of the masks from Alaska bear and while they were not compatible with my cpap, the quality was fantastic. This one was soft and very comfortable, and the one I tried before it (the one with the stars on it) was even better. If you are someone who doesn't need a full mask for their sleep apnea, your search ends here. You won't regret it. Someone from Alaska bear even reached out to me to assist me in finding a mask that works when I returned the first one. In a world with declining quality of customer service, and no one really holding businesses accountable for poor practices, Alaska Bear truly cares about the quality of their brand. Comfort: Excellent Design: Simple and effective (though I like their one with the stars more) Size: Adjustable Velcro: None Color: Silky black Why did you pick this product vs others?: The brand had many positive reviews and I now understand why.

New sleep mask user is a fan!
First time trying a sleep mask. I was originally looking at more “premium” masks but ultimately decided to give Alaska Bear a shot based on its price point and material. I had tried on a friend’s mask from a different brand highly promoted on Amazon, and it was way too tight. This mask is easily adjustable and my experience from side and stomach sleeping is that it stayed in place way better than I expected. The mask itself felt light and comfortable. I would say the only negative I’ve noticed so far is that I’m not noticing any improvement on night eye dryness, but it’s not any worse. I was hoping to wake with my eyes feeling more refreshed than recently but haven’t noticed the improvement I was looking for. I have however noticed improved sleep, which I didn’t really expect, and find I am more comfortable sleeping on my back.

AH--good sleep
I hate sleeping in a room with light. I have used cheep sleep masks for years and for the most part been happy except for the tight cord (or two) around your head. Alaska Bear Mulberry Silk Mask by far is the best I have ever used. Silky smooth on the face, cool, adjustable strap, and great black out make this the best and last mask I ever use. If you are considering a cheap mask, please do yourself a favor and dig a little deeper and buy this for yourself. I also bought a foam mask and there is no comparison--hot, bulky, and not great blackout--plus it was more expensive. Sleep Well!
