We may have dreaded nap time as a kid, but these days, we'd give anything for a midday snooze — because sleep is scarce. Whether it's one of those nights when we can't stop humming to the A Star Is Born soundtrack or the coffee we had at 4 p.m. is still kicking at 11 p.m., getting a full eight hours is nearly impossible. While you can turn to essential oils or rainforest sounds to help, one of the easiest ways to help create a good sleep environment is by wearing an eye mask.
Your eyes are able to detect light even if your lids are closed, making it tough to get rest if there is any type of sunlight or digital light in your vicinity. An eye mask helps block everything out — including your partner scrolling on Instagram in bed next to you or your neighbor messing with the reading light on a red-eye flight.
With luxe silk options and fun designs, sleeping masks are far from basic nowadays, and we've rounded up some of the best options on the market, ahead.

Lunya Restore Sleep Mask
Not only does this mask keep the light away, but it also muffles sound, providing you with peace and quiet. Plus, the custom fit — complete with elasticized band — means you can say goodbye to hair creases.

Ban.do Getaway Eye Mask
If you're worried about an eye mask fitting too tightly and disrupting your sleep, snag one with an adjustable strap, like this satin option. You can loosen the band until you feel nothing at all.

Bucky 40 Blinks Ultralight Sleep Mask
The strongest sunlight — like the beams coming through the car window as you nap during a road trip through Arizona — will have nothing on this innovative pick. It has a contoured shape that allows you to open and close your eyes, but you'll still be shrouded in complete darkness.

Gravity Blankets Weighted Sleep Mask
This weighted sleep mask works just like a weighted blanket, creating a deep (yet comfortable) pressure that relaxes you.
Gravity Blankets Weighted Sleep Mask, $, available at Gravity Blankets
Ostrich Pillow Light Travel Pillow
While not initially recognizable, this cylinder-shaped object is actually a multipurpose pillow that doubles as an eye mask. It slips over the head and serves the same function as a neck pillow, or pull it up to cover your eyes while cushioning the side of your face. Win-win!

Morgan Lane Lanie Sleeping Mask
If you're willing to spend some extra coins, invest in this luxe silk mask that has an adorable design you can wear proudly on the plane. Plus, it comes with a travel pouch for safe (and hygienic) storage.

Alaska Bear Natural Silk Sleep Mask
This Amazon best-seller — we're talking over 11,000 reviews — is loved for its soft feel and under-$10 price tag. Commenters also love how it stays in place, so it won't end up on the other side of the bed if you're a sleeper that moves a lot.
