Have a Gentle Eye SPA
01. What a steam eye mask does
Wearing a steam eye mask to bed for the first half hour helps to relax the skin under the eyes and soothe the tense muscles around the eyes, helping to sleep better. In addition the steam eye mask can be used as a normal eye mask once you have stopped adding it, helping to block out light and allowing for a more restful sleep.
02. Can steam eye masks be worn overnight?
Steam eye masks can be worn overnight. Steam eye masks have a self-heating function that keeps the temperature at around 40 degrees Celsius for half an hour and then stops heating up.
03. What kind of steam eye masks should not be worn overnight
If you want to wear a steam eye mask to sleep, make sure that the steam eye mask you use is constantly heated for a fixed period of time. If it is a steam eye mask that is heated all the time, you should not wear it overnight, as this may lead to prolonged congestion and bloodshot eyes, which is not conducive to eye care.
04. How long is the best time to wear a steam eye mask?
The best time to wear a steam eye mask is 20 minutes. If the heating time is short, the effect will not be obvious, and too long a heating time may cause damage to the skin around the eyes. The thin steam eye mask produces a microscopic warm vapour from the side of the eye that is barely visible to the eye, softening the skin and relieving fatigue. The comfortable, fast-acting temperature of approximately 40°C for 10-30 minutes provides comfort for the body and mind.
05. How often to use a steam eye mask
Whether it's before you go to bed, when you travel, at afternoon tea or at any time of your leisure, you can use a sheet steam eye mask to give your eyes an all-round eye spa.
Do not use if you have the following conditions.
1. For example, those with eye diseases or abnormalities such as damage, swelling or eczema around the eyes.
2. If the removed eye mask is damaged, as it may cause damage to the internal material and may easily cause a safety hazard.
3. Sensitive to metal and peripheral materials.
06. Precautions for using steam eye masks
1. Do not let small children in the house come into contact with it.
2. Avoid direct sunlight and place in a cool, dry place.
07. Three Myths of Steam Eye Mask Use
1. The longer you wear a steam eye mask, the better the effect
This perception is not true. Steam eye masks themselves have a heat duration and a constant temperature time requirement, and the skin around our eyes is relatively fragile, so the temperature cannot be too high.
2. Steam eye masks can be reused to block out light
As we all know, steam eye masks are disposable and are designed to be cotton, as the eye mask itself is heated and will emit water vapour, so if we reuse them, it is easy to cause bacteria to grow, which is bad for the eyes.
3. Steam eye masks are for winter and not for summer
If you think so, then you are wrong. Steam eye masks are a kind of eye protection, the busy work and eye pain determine its time and scope of use, it has nothing to do with the season, and it is not a warming item itself. I've never heard of my eyes getting cold in winter, so all I'm saying is that the need for steam eye masks doesn't depend on the season.
