The one I always wear
I discovered this mask in 2023 through an ad on Instagram and really wanted to try it. I wrote to Manta Sleep and actually received one as a gift, which I had not expected at all. I would have loved it either way.
I have been wearing it for almost four years now, every night, and I still like it as much as on day one. It does not press anywhere, it makes things truly dark, it is comfortable and easy to wash.
For a long time I wore it not only at night but through the whole day. I was lying down all the time, so it was important to have no pressure on my nose or the back of my head. My nose is sensitive and I absolutely cannot stand the feeling of not getting enough air. That is why it is so good that I can adjust the eye cups individually. It is not cheap, but it is the tool I use the most. For me, the price is worth it.
And then there are the warm eye cups, which I often simply put in the freezer, so I have warmth and cold in one.
Why I use it
A short overview of what I notice in myself. Described honestly, without promises.
- 100% darkness, even during the day. My signal for rest
- Zero pressure on the eyes, the cups rest around them
- Fewer stimuli, my nervous system can settle more easily
- Comfortable even lying down, without pressing at the back of my head
- With the warm eye cups I use it warm or cold
The moments when it works for me
During a crash
The mask often stays on all day then. Darkness is my most important sensory break.
For sleeping
At night and for daytime naps. It does not slip and does not press, even lying on my side.
Warm or cold
The warm eye cups go into the microwave or the freezer. Both are good for my eyes.
