How to properly choose a sleep mask?
Experts recommend choosing masks made from natural fabrics such as cotton or silk, notes therapist Irina VASILEVICH. The elastic band of the mask should be wide enough to avoid discomfort. Caring for the mask is simple: it is recommended to wash it at least once a week using gentle detergents.
Additionally, the mask should be used in unusual conditions, such as on a train, airplane, hospital, and other places with sharp changes in lighting.
Using a sleep mask helps to fall asleep faster and increases the production of melatonin. This hormone, responsible for sleep quality, is produced in complete darkness. At home, consider installing thicker curtains in the bedroom.
