For those of us that live in cities, light pollution really is an issue. Add to this the lighter mornings and it is both hard to get to sleep and not to wake up with the lark! We also have plantation shutters which, although very beautiful and easy to clean, do not really block light that effectively. I had been considering blackout blinds however decided that rather than face the upheaval and expense I would try an eye mask first!

It had to be silk (obviously!), so that it would not dry the skin around my eyes (mother nature needs no assistance in that department!) and black for practicality. We have sourced the perfect Mulberry silk specimen that is light and soft and does the job spectacularly. I have been wearing for a week and it has worked a treat, so now I slumber soundly and do not wake at dawn! I was not sure that it would be comfortable but now forget that I have it on and it takes me a minute to realise why it is pitch black every morning!
