I find it hard to tell if an eye mask is gona work for me until I can try it on. Some are too small in size around the eyes so light leaks in. I was really hoping this would suit me, and it does! It's really soft on your face too, and lets in minimal light. I had previously bought some cute Killstar eye masks but they had ears and horns attached which ended up being uncomfortable as I am a side sleeper so I wanted to have something more basic in shape but still my style. I think I will buy the other styles now too!
