1.0 out of 5 starsBlocks light, but bleeds color...
September 21, 2016
The mask functions well, but it's got a huge downside: it bleeds color into fabric and skin. I've owned this mask for almost a month and have used it diligently every night. I've also used my regular night serums/creams as the majority of us do. My best guess leads me to believe that this mask absorbs oils from your products/skin and bleeds color as a result. I've attached photos showing the dark stain this mask left on my bed sheet when I inadvertently slept on top of it this AM (for no more than an hour). It also left multiple spot stains on our duvet cover over the past weeks (and I just figured out that the mask was the culprit based on the present staining).
Now, before you imagine that I slop/slather loads of oily/greasy products on my face, I don't. I use primarily oil free products and I apply a minimal amount. I also allow my products to soak/work in prior to going to bed. On top of that, I only put the mask in in the early AM when light starts to bug me. I also never wet this eye mask and always keep it in a dry/non-humid place where it can air out between wearings.
BOTTOM LINE: TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK. Personally I can't imagine that the black dye in this mask is non-toxic. Perhaps the company will take note and offer more specifics? Whatever the case, I'm looking elsewhere for a mask that won't bleed dye into my fabrics or skin.
