How the Mask Supports Better Sleep
Sleep happens when the body receives the right signals.
Total Darkness
Light exposure can suppress melatonin, the hormone that signals sleep. A fully blackout mask helps block environmental light that may interrupt rest.
Gentle Weighted Pressure
Evenly distributed weight around the eyes can create a calming sensory signal that encourages the body to relax.
Aromatherapy
A subtle lavender scent can act as a familiar bedtime cue when used as part of a nightly routine.
Natural Materials
Breathable linen and natural filling help reduce the overheating and irritation often caused by synthetic masks.
Sleep is not something you force — it happens when the body recognises that it is time to rest. The signals above — darkness, gentle weight, and a familiar scent can help create that feeling when used as part of a consistent nightly routine.
While some people notice the difference immediately, the real benefit comes from consistency. Using the mask each night and going to bed at a similar time helps your brain begin to associate that routine with sleep, making it easier for your body to relax and switch off naturally.

Heating
Use microwave only. Do not use a gas or electric oven.
Place the mask in a clean microwave with a mug of water beside it. Heat for 90 seconds. If needed, continue heating in 30-second increments until comfortably warm.
Ensure the mask can rotate freely while heating. Always test the temperature before applying to skin.
Cooling
Place the mask inside a clean plastic bag and refrigerate or freeze for at least 2 hours.
Remove from the bag and apply directly to skin. The flaxseed fill will cool comfortably without becoming rock hard.
We use gems from Mother Nature as the hero ingredients, sourced through specialist NZ businesses:
- Turkish Stonewashed Linen - STANDARD100 by OEKO-TEX® certified
- NZ Grown Flaxseed
- Dried Lavender Flowers
- Organic Cotton + Rubber Elastic
- Calico Cotton (Drawstring Pouch)
Spot clean only with a damp cloth. Do not machine wash or submerge in water.
If your mask becomes wet, dry it immediately — a dehumidifier works best, or allow it to air dry fully in the sun.
Do not microwave the mask if it is damp or wet.
If you prefer a fully washable option, explore our non-weighted Wisewool™ Sleep Mask.
A Better Nightly Routine
Designed to Stay Comfortable Through the Night
Sleep masks should feel comfortable enough to wear all night without distraction. The Do Not Disturb Weighted Eye Mask is shaped to rest softly around the eyes while staying comfortably in place as you move during sleep.
Once settled in, the mask becomes part of your sleep environment rather than something you notice. The gentle weight and breathable materials help it feel calm and natural — allowing you to stay comfortably asleep in complete darkness.
Warm or Cool Eye Relief
The mask can be gently warmed or cooled depending on what your eyes need. Used warm, it works in a similar way to a traditional wheat bag — providing soothing warmth that helps relax tired eyes at the end of the day.
Many of our customers use the mask this way after long screen hours, and some have mentioned relief from eye strain, headaches, or migraines. Others prefer a cooling sensation, especially in warmer weather or after a long day. Whether warm or cool, it offers a simple way to help your eyes unwind before sleep.
Getting the Most From Your Mask
- Use the mask as part of your regular bedtime routine so your brain begins to associate it with sleep.
- Try going to bed at a similar time each night to help support your natural sleep rhythm.
- For extra eye relief, try gently warming or cooling the mask before use.
- Because the mask uses natural filling rather than synthetic gel, the warmth or cooling gradually fades — but many people enjoy the initial soothing sensation as they unwind before sleep.
We Dream It, And We Make It
We spend a lot of time thinking about what we can do to sleep, and live better. It’s a challenge that has kept us up at night - metaphorically speaking.
The truth is, we sleep pretty darn well. And that’s the simple mission behind Do Not Disturb: to improve lives through better sleep, and living.
If you are wondering who makes these proven-to-perform sleep essentials - we do. Each one is made by hand in our own workroom, which is a rarity these days. This allows us to protect our quality, our people, and our purpose.

FAQS
No. The weight is evenly distributed and intentionally gentle. It’s designed to feel grounding — not heavy or restrictive. Most customers describe it as a soft, calming pressure rather than something pressing on the eyes.
Yes. The balanced flaxseed fill naturally contours to your face, and the twin-strap design helps keep it in place without pulling or squeezing. Many side sleepers find it stays comfortable throughout the night.
No. The lavender is subtle and sits in the background rather than overpowering. It’s intended as a gentle wind-down cue, not a strong fragrance. If you prefer no scent at all, an unscented option is available.
Many customers use the mask as a warm compress to support dry eye relief or to ease tension around the temples and sinuses. Cooling can help refresh tired eyes or take the edge off mild headaches. While it’s not a medical device, its heat and cooling versatility make it useful beyond sleep.
Unlike molded or synthetic masks, this design uses natural weight to softly contour to your face and create blackout without bulk. The combination of flaxseed fill, breathable linen, and optional lavender makes it feel more like a rest ritual than a standard sleep accessory.
Yes. The mask is designed for overnight comfort, with evenly balanced weight and breathable materials. If you prefer, you can also use it just while falling asleep and remove it later — it works both ways.
