The Lula Eye Mask
Everything you need to know about Australia's first self-warming, scented eyemasks.
How does the Lula Eye Mask work?
The masks contain iron particles and when they come into contact with oxygen the iron slowly begins to warm, it’s a natural oxidation reaction. There are other natural ingredients that help this oxidising reaction to happen and to heat evenly; water, salt, charcoal and vermiculite. The Lula Eye Masks are each sealed individually because once you open the pouch and air comes in contact it will start warming. It stays at a comforting temperature for a minimum of 20 relaxing minutes, so you can drift into a daydream or a deep night’s sleep.
What can the Lula Eye Mask help with?
The eye mask can help...
• Dry or tired Eyes
• Digital eye strain
• Busy minds
• Migraines & headaches
• Relaxation
• Meditation
• A good nights sleep
• Travelling
What are the benefits of warmth on the eyes?
• The warmth helps to relax the muscles around the eyes and also encourages circulation, helping to ease tension and strain. This can also help relieve headaches and migraines.
• As well as the Lula Eye Mask blocking light, it’s warmth feels soothing and calming, helping lull you to sleep.
• Like a warm compress the warmth creates a fine moist steam, comforting the skin around the eyes and giving relief to dry eyes.
How long does it take for the Eye Mask to warm up?
After you open the pouch the mask begins to warm within 2 minutes.
How long does the Eye Mask stay warm?
The eye mask warms quickly reaching a comfortable temperature that will last for a minimum of 20 minutes and gently fades away by the time you’ve drifted off.
Who can use the Lula Eye Mask?
Everyone can use the Lula Eye Mask, it is a one size fits all. (Not recommended for children under 5)
Can I reheat the Lula Eye Mask?
No. Do not reheat the mask in any way. The Lula Eye Mask has been designed to warm up once to a safe, comfortable temperature for the eyes, it's a natural reaction when the iron particles in the mask meets the air and begins to heat. This reaction can only happen once, so although it can not be reheated you can keep the eye mask and continue to use as you would a normal sleeping eye mask to block out light.
How strong or subtle are the scented Eye Masks?
The scents are purposefully subtle so as not to overwhelm your sense while you relax. Jasmine, Rose and Lavender can help relax, de-stress and assist with sleep. The scents are activated as the mask warms, so when the eye mask has heated, you can pull it down over your nose and take a few deep breaths in!
Due to the nature of the ingredients the strength of scent can vary from eye mask to eye mask. The strength can not be guaranteed as some essence may be absorbed by the natural iron ingredients and it starts to dissipate once opened. Everyone’s sense of smell is individual with varying levels of sensitivity to different smells. If you do enjoy a stronger scent we recommend pairing the eye mask with one of our Lula Essential Oils.
Can I use the mask if I'm pregnant?
Yes you NEED this mask if you are pregnant! And save a few for when the baby arrives!
What ingredients make the mask heat?
The heating pad contains iron powder, vermiculite, activated carbon, salt and water which are all naturally occurring.
How do I dispose of my Lula Eye Mask?
The warming reaction can only happen once, so although it can not be reheated, most people keep the eye mask and continue to use as you would a normal, light weight, sleeping eye mask to block out light. There are 5 eye masks in a box, so you can enjoy the warming feeling a few times.
If you did want to dispose of them the ingredients inside the mask are safe and eco-friendly and good for soil, so you can cut them open and empty the contents straight into your garden or house plant (keep out of reach of pets and children). The box can be placed in the recycle bin and the mask although parts are biodegradable are best in your general waste bin.
