So the main purpose of this was for my daughter, she is light sensitive at night, so we had been trying different sleep masks for her. Now she also has skin senstivitiy as well. Now I got this one because it is like a silky feel, it isn't like hard fabric like many of them tend to me. She has been using this for several months now, and it has helped her wonderfully, she states that it is soft and doesn't make her eyes itchy as well. I think for the price this was a great investment. If you are looking for something different that does not have that rough feel to it, I would suggest trying this one out and seeing how you like it. She said it feels like a feather, there is no weight to it and it almost doesn't feel like you have anything on you at all.
