Total darkness blackout mask

Designed for maximum light elimination, this mask is essential for shift workers or anyone needing absolute darkness to sleep.

A total darkness blackout mask uses deep contours, thick padding and often a nose wing to seal out light. It suits shift workers, frequent travellers, new parents napping during the day and anyone who sleeps while the sun is up.

Usually under $15Eye masks

Why total darkness blackout mask make a good gift

  • Helps create darkness for daytime sleep after night shifts or long overnight flights.
  • Useful in bright bedrooms, hotel rooms and cabins without blackout curtains.
  • A practical everyday item the recipient will likely reach for well beyond the holidays.

What to look for

  • Check for a nose wing or flap that closes the gap where light usually leaks in.
  • Look for an adjustable strap that holds a snug seal without pinching the head.
  • Consider face shape and size, since deep masks fit some faces better than others.

Questions people ask

Does any sleep mask block all light?
Fit varies by face, so a mask with a nose flap and adjustable strap gives a better chance of a full seal.
Is a blackout mask comfortable for side sleepers?
Thicker masks can shift against a pillow, so slim edges or a contoured shape suit side sleepers better.
