Why Wear an Eyemask

I’ve always wanted to try an eye mask but I had no idea why people wore them. So recently I picked one up and was surprised what a difference it made in my sleep quality! It blocked out all the light and therefore helped me fall asleep much quicker and stay asleep all night!

  When it’s dark, our bodies produce a hormone called Melatonin. Some people refer to it as the “sleep” hormone. Melatonin helps regulate our sleep. The darker it is, the more our brains produce it and the better we sleep.  So if there’s any light coming into your bedroom it can effect your quality of sleep!

Eye masks are wonderful for people who work the third shift and have to sleep during the day. Also for sleeping on airplanes and for taking naps! As an added bonus they can help with puffy eyes!

So, if you have trouble falling asleep or staying asleep, give it a try! As a side note, if you don’t usually set an alarm clock you may want to do this when you first start using an eye mask. The natural sunlight won’t be waking you up in the morning.

Eye masks are not just for the posh women. They are for anyone who wants a good night sleep!

Let me know how it works for you!

Have a wonderful day!
