While the extended daylight hours of summer are welcomed by many, they can present a significant challenge when it comes to getting a good night’s rest. Blackout blinds and curtains often represent a substantial investment, but shoppers believe they’ve discovered a far more budget-friendly solution in the form of an eye mask that’s currently discounted.
The BON CHARGE Classic Blackout Sleep Mask typically retails at £39.95, but the brand has slashed the price by 25% in a limited-time promotion. It’s now at £29.96, but shoppers will need to act quickly to secure the saving as it won’t last indefinitely.
Amongst the mask’s key features is an ‘optimal blackout and comfort’ design which enables wearers to block out blue light disturbances and enjoy undisturbed rest. The innovative hollow eye cups apply no pressure whatsoever to the sensitive eye area while simultaneously protecting eyelashes.
With an adjustable strap and plush memory foam padding for enhanced comfort, it’s easy to understand why the BON CHARGE eye mask currently holds an impressive 4.7-star rating based on 469 reviews. While the difficulties of summer sleeping are well-documented, BON CHARGE’s Global Wellness Tech Trend Report 2026 revealed that in a survey of more than 2,000 Brits, 20% who used red light technology cited sleep improvement as their primary motivation, compared to 29% of blue light blocking users and 23% of infrared sauna users.
Elsewhere on the market, Dore and Rose stocks the 23 Momme Mulberry Silk Deep Sleep Mask for £39, available in various colours, including a chic leopard print, making it perfect for presents. It promises to block light completely, while diminishing puffiness and under-eye bags, reports the Mirror.
For a more economical choice, shoppers can visit Amazon for the £13.99 MyHalos 3D Sleep Mask, crafted from premium-grade memory foam and an ultra-soft breathable fabric that’s perfect for the warmer months approaching. Returning to BON CHARGE, sleep masks aren’t the only products featured in the retailer’s 25% off sale.
The sought-after Brooklyn Blue Light Blocking Glasses typically cost £99.95 but are now discounted to £74.96. Featuring a science-backed design, the eyewear promises to eliminate 100% of blue and green light between 400-550nm, enhancing melatonin production and regulating the wearer’s circadian rhythm.
It’s recommended that users wear them for two to three hours before bed for optimal results. For those looking for bedtime alternatives, there’s also the convenient compact Bullet Red Light Therapy Device (£111.75, was £149), which has a multi-functional design that includes helping users to ‘sleep better’ according to BON CHARGE.
The clever device also promises to help enhance skin appearance in targeted areas, while supporting recovery and assisting with optimising energy production. As for reviews for the sleep mask, the feedback is overwhelmingly positive.
One buyer said: “Best ever sleep mask. My sleep is super sensitive to light, so I have been wearing blackout sleep masks for 15 or so years. They always end up easily shifting on my face to let in too much light. This one doesn’t let in any light. It’s incredible. I’ll be buying these for life. The price is worth it.”
Another customer praised its suitability for travel ahead of the peak holiday season, saying: “I bought this to help me sleep on an aeroplane without my eyes getting sweaty and no pressure on the eyelids to keep me awake. This is not only comfortable, but I was able to sleep.”
It is worth noting, however, that one reviewer raised a minor concern regarding the durability of the eye mask‘s design, knocking off a star as a result. They said: “Had this for years. Good and comfortable sleep mask, but the Velcro doesn’t hold anymore.”
A further customer reported feeling an immediate sense of calm upon wearing the mask, saying: “Beyond my expectations. In a million years, I would have never thought a blackout mask could make such a difference in my sleep. It’s extremely comfortable (love the adjustable velcro in back). The material feels soft and luxurious. When I put it on, my body instantly relaxes into the darkness. Can’t wait to travel with it as well.”
Elsewhere, another satisfied customer sang the praises of the mask for those working night shifts, saying: “I have been working midnight shifts and this mask has helped me fall asleep fast enough that I don’t wake up at all.”
