Sleeping Masks - A Dumb Idea?

[ Edited ]

I don't get it.

If I sleep ON MY FACE, why would I use a "Sleeping mask"?

Everything's gonna WIPE OFF on the pillow within an hour.

My Grandfather always wore a sleeping mask. He slept on his back. My cousin and I used to laugh at him when we spent the night with the Grandparents.

@RinaRina   Are you referring to a skincare mask or the satin type that keeps the light out?

@RinaRina    If you sleep on your face, don't you have trouble breathing?

I am a horrible sleeper as it is, but no way could I tolerate something on my face rendering me blind. No way. I would freak out.


Why is it, when I have a 50/50 guess at something, I'm always 100% wrong?

Love sleep masks and always use one.  As long as I have my mask on I can sleep anywhere and a plus is that even though I'm in my late 70s, almost no wrinkling around my eyes ( maybe because they relax more in complete darkness?).

When I worked 2nd and 3rd shifts I slept with a mask to keep the morning light out of my eyes from waking me up.

 

What is a dumb idea to you is not so dumb to others.

Are you talking about a beauty mask or an eye mask?  If you're talking about a beauty mask and are concerned with your skin & would suggest trying not to sleep on your face if you can.  Sleeping on your face just creates more wrinkles.

Re: Sleeping Masks - A Dumb Idea?

Since you say "everything's gonna wipe off"  I guess you mean skincare mask not eye coverage @RinaRina .  Yes I believe it would be dumb for YOU but not for those of us who don't sleep "on our faces."  Seriously, not everything is for everyone.  

If my dog doesn't like you, neither do I.
