Very good sleep mask, but could use a couple improvements Feb 15, 2010
By J. Morris
"photo_jeff"
This sleep mask is very comfortable and would be perfect for travel, when you're sleeping in an upright position. However, there are a couple things that make this less than perfect:
1. The velcro attached to the straps is thick. This creates a bump (1/8" or so) on the back of your head that makes sleeping on your back unlikely. There really isn't a good position in which to place the strap to make this more comfortable. However, sleeping on your side is perfectly comfortable.
2. On my face, light leaks in on either side of the nostrils. If only there was an extra bit of fabric to gently close off that gap without putting pressure on the nostrils, this mask would be greatly improved.
Both of the above cons are minimized if you are using these on a train or plane, which is probably the intended use of this mask anyway. I just wanted to point them out in case you intend to use them in bed.

 Cute but nose area does not lay flat on skin, letting some light in. Feb 27, 2010
By panda chan
I got this in "mums" and black (for me and my husband). My husband has taken a liking to it and I see him use it pretty much every night. I use it occasionally... the mums print is so cute!!! But I like it primarily for the unique print and SOMEWHAT ergonomic, contoured shape. The shape looked great in photo, but it doesn't lay flat on the sides of my nose... the inverted "V" shape part is a tad too wide/big for me. Perhaps if you had a bigger nose or the entire nose area were sticking out more, this would fit perfectly. I almost wish that they just cut a slit for the nose instead of a "V", so the flaps will lay over the sides of the nose.. I would imagine that will fit more people's facial shape and will keep lights out more effectively. I wonder if I should've tried the "Lights out" one also available on Amazon... but they just weren't as stylish : P

 bucky 40 blinks Apr 07, 2009
By Linda Thompson
I love my bucky 40 blinks eye mask. I rode to Florida from Missouri and took long naps with my face mask. It blocks out all the light and lets you zone out, nap and relax. The mask is so soft and comfortable with the bulging eye pockets, letting you blink. I would recommend this to everyone.

Best Way to Get Shut-Eye Anywhere Feb 21, 2008
By S. Kirby
I have had dozens of eye masks over the years. They were either too tight, too loose, not dark enough or left dents in my face. THIS ONE IS PERFECT. VERY LIGHT and NO DENT MARKS EVEN OVERNIGHT.

the bee's knees Sep 09, 2009
By Caraculiambro
In Dusseldorf once I bought a German-made eye-mask that was the last word in eye-mask technology. It was darned expensive, but after having used it for years I wish I hadn't bought three or four more.
This one, the Bucky "40 Blinks Mask" is probably the best I've seen for sale domestically. There are no plastic buckles in the back: it fastens to itself using velcro. The straps are proper thick straps, not strings. There is a puffy hollow in front of your eyes, so your eyelashes don't feel crushed: the face mask material is made out of washable foam, not leather or satin.
The best thing about this eyemask is that is hugs the bridge of your nose quite a ways down. This will take a few nights of getting used to since it creates a slight pinching feeling, but the big advantage is that very little light will be able to get in through the little crack in the nose opening, a common problem with masks that merely lie flat on your face.
