Your body is exhausted. Your mind is still on.

Sleep doesn’t come from trying harder. It comes from cues your body understands: darkness and gentle pressure.

This mask is engineered to give you deeper, more restorative sleep.

three inputs. one mask.

Each feature is designed to calm your nervous system and is grounded in sleep research.

Deep Touch Pressure

The mask applies gentle, even weight around, not on, the eyes. This kind of deep touch pressure is known to calm your nervous system and promote a more relaxed state, using the same principle as weighted blankets.

 

Studies1 on gentle weighted pressure suggest it can help people fall asleep faster and improve sleep quality; this mask uses that same mechanism in a lighter, travel‑friendly form focused on the face and eyes.

total blackout

Even low-level ambient light suppresses melatonin production and disrupts your circadian timing2. The contoured fit of our mask blocks out light regardless of sleep position. 

 

A peer-reviewed study3 found that wearing an eye mask during sleep led to measurably improved memory and next-day alertness — the kind of result you'll notice in how sharp you feel the next morning.

Thermal Regulation

Skin temperature is a key input for sleep onset — your body temperature naturally drops before sleep, and larger drops are linked with better nighttime recovery (higher HRV4). Synthetic masks trap heat and can work against that cooling process.

 

Natural stonewashed linen wicks moisture and breathes freely, keeping your face cooler and drier so it supports your body's cooling signal.

Built-In Extras

Botanical Signaling

Dried lavender is sewn into the mask, giving you a subtle wind-down cue every night. Over time, your brain will associate this aroma with sleep.

Heat Therapy

For the days you need extra relief, the mask can be gently warmed in the microwave. Perfect for soothing tension or relieving screen-tired eyes.

Cold Therapy

The mask can be placed in the freezer for at least an hour. Ideal for cooling down, reducing puffiness or just refreshing.

A basic mask might block light. Ours helps turn bedtime into deep rest.

frequently asked questions

How long does it take to notice a difference?

Some people notice the effect straight away, while for others it builds over a few nights. Like most sleep habits, the best results come from using it consistently so your brain begins to associate it with sleep.

Is the mask heavy or uncomfortable?

No. The weight is evenly distributed and intentionally gentle. It's designed to feel grounding - not heavy or restrictive. Most customers describe it as a soft, calming pressure rather than something pressing on the eyes.

Can I wear it all night?

Yes. The mask is designed for overnight comfort, with evenly balanced weight and breathable materials. If you prefer, you can also use it just while falling asleep and remove it later - it works both ways.

Will it put pressure on my eyes?

No. The shape is designed to sit around the eyes, not directly on them. The weight is distributed to create a gentle, calming feel without unwanted pressure.

Is it comfortable for side sleepers?

Yes. The balanced flaxseed fill naturally contours to your face, and the twin-strap design helps keep it in place without pulling or squeezing. Many side sleepers find it stays comfortable throughout the night.

Is the lavender scent strong?

No — the lavender is subtle and sits in the background rather than overpowering. It’s designed as a gentle wind-down cue, not a strong fragrance. If you prefer no scent at all, an unscented option is available as a customer order (please reach out). If you’re looking for something more noticeable, you can pair it with our Sleep Mist (coming soon!) for a stronger scent experience.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes — a 30-Night Sleep Trial. Sleep in it, use it, whatever. If it doesn't help you sleep, we'll email you a free return label and refund you in full. Read our full return policy here.

A Note From The Founder

 

After 12 years of building one of the US's largest organic mattress companies, I learned exactly how materials impact physical recovery. But I kept seeing the same problem: people were investing in a nice mattress, only to wrap themselves (and their faces) in plastic-derived textiles.

 

A natural sleep environment only works if the materials closest to your body can actually breathe. I launched Do Not Disturb Sleep Company because the tools we use to wind down should work with your biology, not against it. We engineer products using natural fabrics and fills to give your body the physical tools it needs to recover.
