Why does sleep mask irritate eyes?

Sleep mask may irritate eyes because of its special purpose. The texture of sleep mask is usually thick, which is easy to block pores and hinder the excretion of substances by the skin, especially when used in the eyes, which is more likely to cause blockage, tingling or discomfort. Sleep mask contains some chemical components, such as acid, salicylic acid, etc. It may irritate eyes during use, resulting in redness, itching and other discomfort. Avoid touching the mask with eyes during use, otherwise it will easily cause irritation.

Although the sleep mask is irritating to the eyes, it does not mean that it cannot be used. When choosing a sleep mask, you can choose a mild formula, which is light and thin, avoiding the eyes. In the process of use, we should also pay attention to following the correct operation method to ensure that the product is evenly applied and does not touch the eyes and other parts.

In addition to choosing products that suit you and using them correctly, you can also make preparations before using them to reduce irritation. For example, before using the sleep mask, you can apply a soft eye cream or emulsion around your eyes to protect and moisturize. Wash your face in time after using the product to avoid residue.

It is not uncommon for sleep masks to irritate the eyes, but it does not mean that they cannot be used. Choosing the right product, using it correctly and getting ready can reduce the occurrence of irritation. If you feel uncomfortable, stop using it immediately and consult a professional doctor.
