This is the sleep mask I've been looking for
I have a couple different sleep masks that are designed to fully cover the face, which is great because they block out 100% of all light.  But the trade off is they have large straps that connect via velcro in the back, and that can be uncomfortable when sleeping on my back.  I can feel the strap on the back of my head and it's annoying.  I've been trying to find a more minimalist design and this sleep mask fits my needs perfectly.<br />First, it's very comfortable on the face.  Nice smooth silky feel that is lightweight and doesn't rub.  Second, the strap is very thing.  So thin I don't feel it between my head and pillow when sleeping on my back.  So important!  The strap is easily adjustable.  The mask does a great job at blocking out light.  I will say it doesn't block out 100%, but about 95%. If I open my eyes with the mask on I do get a very little amount of light bleed on the sides, but when my eyes are closed I can't tell at all, and that's the important thing.<br />I will say I did need to experiment between the tightness of the mask vs. comfort.  I found I don't want to wear this too tight (almost loose I would say) because the straps connect at the sides of the mask right, and if the mask is too tight it will cause annoying pressure on my eyes because they will pull the mask towards my face right where the mask crosses my eyes.  So I need to wear it pretty loose so I don't get that pressure on my eyes.  But I'm finding even when it is loose it still stays on, blocks the necessary amount of light and is very comfortable.  I'll be using this for many years to come and my search is finally over!
