I have been getting sore eyes of late, caused by a combination of Hay fever and too much time spent glaring at the computer. I have thought for some time about pleasant it would be to refresh my eyes with a cooling eye mask. Looking through Amazon this one seemed to be of decent quality and at £15.60 would not break the bank.
The mask arrived attractively presented in a plastic package inside of which was the mask itself, a protective bag to protect the mask when in the fridge or freezer, and some promotional materials.
The mask is quite large, easily enough to cover the eyes and the face for an inch or so around them. It is secured at the back by an adjustable Velcro strap which does a good job of securing the mask in place. The front of the mask is composed of a soft and malleable gel inside of a plastic pouch, the gel is mixed with gold coloured flecks which give it an attractive look. The other side, that which rests against the eyes, is of a soft black corduroy type cloth which feels pleasant against the eyelids when in place. The whole cooling effect is rather enjoyable and relaxing.
In use, the mask is comfortable and easy to wear. I have found that after about half an hour or so the mask will start to warm up and at that point, I flip it around so the plastic side is against the face which is also perfectly pleasant. I have found a few minutes in the fridge is best to cool the eyepad down, don't be tempted to put it in the freezer as it will quickly become rock hard and take an age to thaw out. The mask can also be put in the microwave for a few seconds for those that prefer a warm and soothing effect.
This is an excellent eye mask. It is robust and well made and really does help to revive the eyes.
