Coming in hot as the top-reviewed sleep mask on Amazon, this basic black model hits all the right notes. It's affordable, made of breathable silk, and crazy comfortable. Reviewers were enamored with the design, which leaves the nose area free, unencumbered, and free of pressure.

Thanks to its 3D shape, this eye mask is great for midday cat naps and meditation sessions as it completely blocks out light—and also keeps your makeup smudge-free, according to reviewers.

Sleep Whale Sleep Mask

Credit: Amazon
buy it, $15

Although this sleep mask has a litany of positive reviews, many customers found one quality that makes it better than the rest: The oversize design, which blocks out 100 percent of light. It's made of satin, which helps to reduce the formation of wrinkles when you sleep.

Fitglam Natural Silk Sleep Eye Mask

buy it, $8

Flirty lashes aren't just for dressing up anymore. Now they're ready for a girls' night in. This mask is made of silk, which (like the option above) helps to mitigate the formation of wrinkles while you sleep. And it comes with a free set of earplugs for some additional sensory deprivation.

Mavogel Cotton Sleep Eye Mask

buy it, $14

The soft-as-butter, 100 percent cotton material used on this eye mask separates it from the rest of the bunch. Reviewers were particularly pleased with the larger-than-normal head strap, too.
