Completely self-heating, these soothing eye masks are perfect to use when you need some calm and comfort after a long, busy, or stressful day. 

They're infused with the sweet aroma of jasmine flowers, which is known for reducing stress, anxiety, and promoting better sleep. They work by lowering your heart rate and calming the mind, making it easier to get a good night's sleep. 

This, in turn, means you have more energy the next day, therefore contributing to reduced stress and anxiety the following day as well. 

My thoughts on the Spacemasks Original Jasmine eye masks

These jasmine eye masks will now be my must-have travel item.

These jasmine eye masks will now be my must-have travel item. 

I have to admit, I was somewhat skeptical of these prior to using - after all, why would I want ONLY my eye area warmed? 

However, my scepticism was soon quelled - because these very much work. 

They heat up relatively quickly, and it's a warm heat that's not too intense. While initially an odd sensation, it did feel very comforting. 

The jasmine scent is what really got me relaxed. I usually have a million thoughts racing through my head a minute, but after 20 minutes of using this, I felt deeply relaxed and when I went to sleep shortly after, it took shockingly little time to fall nod off . 

And the sleep I had? Transformative. 

One area of improvement could be the ear straps - as a single use item, it probably doesn't make total sense to have adjustable straps, but when I tried to wear the mask to bed one night it did keep popping off when moving. 

I usually use a lavender sleep spray to create a calming atmosphere at night, and will continue to do so as an everyday option, as I do try to limit the number of single-use products I use. 

However, these will be my travel holy-grail sleeping item, thanks to the fact they weigh practically nothing and are ultra compact. I always have trouble sleeping away from home, so these will be an absolute godsend. 

I have a long-haul flight coming up in a few months, and as an anxious flyer, I imagine these will do a lot to soothe my anxiety and help me relax in the sky.  

Overall, I will definitely be buying these again - they help the mind shut down and really decompress and set you up for the one of the most tranquil sleep of your life. 

They're also cruelty-free and vegan, allowing everyone to simply close their eyes and be transported to their happy place. 

And they couldn't be easier to use. Simply open, place on the eyes, and enjoy 20 minutes of soothing warmth while you finally decompress - it's a spa experience from the comfort of your own bed. 

Each box contains five eye masks, and for just £13.88 (when using our exclusive discount code, DMSM), that works out to just £2.76 per use - making this an affordable option for anyone struggling to sleep.

Another added: 'The Spacemasks Original Jasmine 5 Pack is a game-changer for relaxation. As soon as you open one, the soft floral scent and self-heating sensation work together to ease tension and calm the mind.'

They continued, writing: 'The jasmine fragrance is subtle yet deeply soothing, making it perfect for drifting off into a restful sleep. Whether you need a moment of tranquility or a remedy for tired eyes, these masks deliver every time.'
