Description
Exceptional Softness and Quality of 22 Momme Silk
The 3D silk eyemask crafted with 22 momme silk offers an unparalleled level of softness and durability. Momme measures silk's weight and quality, with 22 momme indicating a luxurious, thicker fabric that feels smooth against your skin. This premium silk material provides a gentle touch that is perfect for sensitive skin, preventing irritation throughout the night. Its breathable nature helps regulate temperature, ensuring you stay comfortable without overheating, making it ideal for all seasons.
Ergonomically Designed 3D Shape for Maximum Comfort
This silk eyemask features a carefully designed 3D contour that perfectly fits the curves of your face. Unlike flat masks, the three-dimensional structure prevents pressure on your eyelids and eyelashes, avoiding discomfort and smudging of makeup. The mask gently blocks out light while allowing enough space to blink freely, enhancing your sleep quality whether at home or during travel. An adjustable strap guarantees a secure but comfortable fit for all head sizes.
Elegant Navy Blue Color for Style and Practicality
Beyond functionality, the navy blue color of this 3D silk eyemask adds a touch of sophistication and calm to your bedtime routine. Navy is a classic shade that hides wear and stains well, maintaining its refined look over time. The rich hue inspires relaxation and aligns beautifully with various sleepwear or bedroom decor. Lightweight and compact, this mask is a stylish yet practical choice for those who value both aesthetics and restful sleep.

22 Momme Mulberry Silk
Why does silk make a better sleep mask?
Most sleep masks are made from polyester, cotton or synthetic satin. These fabrics absorb moisture from the delicate skin around your eyes and create friction as you move during sleep. Silk does neither.
The skin around the eyes is the thinnest skin on your face, which makes it the most reactive to friction and moisture loss overnight. A 22 momme mulberry silk eye mask sits against that skin for six to eight hours every night. The fabric it is made from matters considerably more than most people realise.
At 22 momme, the silk weave is lightweight and breathable without being delicate. The fabric is dense enough to block light effectively, yet fine enough to feel weightless against closed eyes. Grade 6A mulberry silk, the highest quality grade available, produces a surface smooth enough that the skin around the eye experiences minimal friction regardless of sleep position.
The Lunelle 3D contoured shape adds a second layer of protection: the dome structure lifts the fabric away from the eyelids entirely, removing all contact pressure on lashes and the lid itself.
Does not absorb moisture
Silk is a protein fibre that leaves moisture where it belongs: on your skin. Cotton draws hydration away from the eye area overnight, which is where fine lines develop first.
Low-friction surface
The smooth weave of 22 momme silk produces less friction against the eye area than any synthetic fabric, reducing the mechanical stress that contributes to creasing over time.
What does 22 momme mean?
Momme measures the weight of silk fabric per square metre. At 22 momme, the fabric is premium everyday weight: substantial enough to block light and last with proper care, light enough to wear comfortably all night.
OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 certified
Every Lunelle silk product is independently certified free from harmful substances. Particularly important for the delicate eye area, which is in direct contact with the mask for the entire night.
What it does
Three reasons the design makes a difference
Complete light block
The 22 momme silk weave is dense enough to block ambient light reliably, including streetlights, early morning sun and screen light from a partner. The 3D dome shape creates a light-seal at the edges without pressing tightly against the face.
- Blocks streetlights and natural light
- Dome edge creates effective seal
- No pressure required to block light
Protects eye area skin
The skin around the eyes is the thinnest on the face and loses moisture faster than anywhere else. Unlike polyester or cotton masks, 22 momme silk does not absorb moisture from the skin surface, keeping the eye area hydrated through the night.
- Retains eye area hydration
- Gentle on sensitive under-eye skin
- Keeps eye cream on skin, not on fabric
Zero lash contact
The 3D contoured dome lifts the silk away from your eyelids and lashes completely. Flat masks press directly on the eyes and crush lash extensions or natural lashes during sleep. The contour shape removes that contact point entirely.
- Safe for lash extensions
- No pressure on eyelids
- Blink freely throughout the night
Made for
Who benefits most from a silk sleep mask
A silk eye mask does more than block light. The combination of the 3D shape and 22 momme silk addresses specific sleep and skincare needs that a standard fabric mask cannot.
Light sleepers and shift workers
If you sleep during daylight hours, near a window, or in a room that is never fully dark, complete light elimination is the single biggest factor in sleep quality. The 22 momme silk dome blocks ambient light without the tight elastic that most light-blocking masks rely on.
Lash extension wearers
Flat sleep masks press directly onto lash extensions and crush them during sleep, shortening their lifespan. The 3D contour lifts the silk completely clear of the lash line. You get a full light block without a single point of contact on the lashes.
Eye cream users
Cotton and polyester masks absorb eye cream from the skin the moment you put them on. Silk does not. The protein fibre surface keeps your eye cream, retinol or moisturiser on the skin where it can work overnight, rather than transferring it to the mask fabric.
Frequent travellers
The navy blue Lunelle eye mask is lightweight and compact enough to fold flat in a carry-on. The silk stays smooth without creasing in a bag, and the adjustable strap fits securely on flights or in hotels where light control and sleep quality matter most.
Sensitive or reactive skin
The OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 certification confirms the silk is free from harmful dyes, finishes and chemical treatments. For skin that reacts to synthetic fabrics, Grade 6A mulberry silk is the safest option for overnight eye area contact.
Anyone who wears a sleep mask nightly
If you already wear a sleep mask, the fabric it is made from is the single most impactful upgrade available. The switch from a polyester mask to 22 momme silk immediately removes friction and moisture loss from the most reactive skin on your face, every single night.
Frequently asked questions about silk eye masks
Is a silk eye mask worth it?
Yes, particularly if you wear a sleep mask nightly. The skin around the eyes is the thinnest on the face, making it the most reactive to friction and moisture loss overnight. A 22 momme mulberry silk eye mask leaves moisture on the skin rather than absorbing it, and produces less friction against the eye area than any synthetic or cotton fabric. The difference is most noticeable for those who apply eye cream before bed, as silk does not draw those products away from the skin the way cotton does.
What is a 22 momme silk eye mask?
22 momme refers to the weight of the silk fabric per square metre. At 22 momme, the fabric is at the premium everyday end of the lightweight range: substantial enough to block light and withstand regular washing, yet fine enough to feel weightless against the delicate skin around the eyes. The Lunelle silk eye mask uses 100% Grade 6A mulberry silk at 22 momme, the highest quality grade available.
Is a 3D eye mask better than a flat sleep mask?
Yes, for most people. A flat sleep mask presses directly onto the eyelids and lashes, which can cause discomfort and crush lash extensions. A 3D contoured eye mask uses a dome shape that lifts the fabric completely clear of the eyelids, allowing you to blink freely and removing all contact with lashes. The Lunelle 3D silk eye mask combines this contour shape with the skin benefits of 22 momme mulberry silk.
Can I wear a silk eye mask with lash extensions?
Yes. The 3D contour shape lifts the silk away from the eyelashes entirely, making it safe for lash extensions. There is no pressure or friction on the lash line during sleep. Flat masks are not recommended for lash extensions because the fabric presses directly onto the lashes and can displace or damage them overnight.
What is the difference between a silk eye mask and a satin eye mask?
Satin is a weave type, not a material. Most satin sleep masks are made from polyester woven in a satin pattern. They have a smooth surface but do not share the properties of real silk. Polyester satin absorbs moisture, generates static and does not regulate temperature the way silk does. A mulberry silk eye mask uses 100% natural silk protein fibre, which is genuinely moisture-neutral and breathable at a fibre level rather than just at the surface.
How do I wash a silk eye mask?
Wash on a cold, gentle cycle (30 degrees or below) inside a mesh laundry bag using a mild silk-safe detergent. Alternatively, hand wash in cool water. Do not tumble dry on high heat. Lay flat or hang to dry away from direct sunlight. Iron on the lowest silk setting if needed. Avoid fabric softener and bleach entirely. With proper care, a 22 momme silk eye mask retains its smoothness for years.
Does a silk eye mask block all light?
Yes. The 22 momme silk weave is dense enough to block ambient light including streetlights, early morning sun and screen light. The 3D dome structure creates a natural seal at the edges without requiring tight elastic. The adjustable strap lets you set the fit so the mask sits comfortably without gaps.
