Must-have travel accessories: the best pillow and eye mask pairings
Traveling often means long hours in transit and less-than-ideal sleeping conditions, turning comfort from a luxury into a necessity. The right travel pillow and eye mask duo can transform even the most uncomfortable journeys into restful experiences. As we explore the best Drowsy eye masks, let's also consider how they pair with neck pillows and other travel essentials for the ultimate comfort on the go.
Complete your travel kit: essential travel accessories
To maximize comfort during your travels, a well-packed travel kit is indispensable. Beyond the basics of a pillow and sleep mask, there are a few additional items every traveler should consider:
-
Water Bottle: Staying hydrated is crucial, especially during air travel, where cabin air can be particularly dry. A durable, leak-proof water bottle ensures you can keep water at hand without any mess.
-
Sleep Mask: Essential for blocking out cabin lights or the sun when crossing time zones, the Drowsy Silk Sleep Mask provides luxurious, gentle coverage, ensuring your sleep isn't disrupted by your environment.
-
Toiletry Bag: Keep all your travel essentials organized and easily accessible with a spacious toiletry bag. Opt for one with compartments to separate liquids, which can be handy for quick access during security checks.
-
Ear Plugs: A small but critical accessory, earplugs can make a world of difference in noisy environments like airplanes or busy hotels.
-
Comfort for Longer Trips: These accessories not only provide comfort but also help maintain a semblance of routine and normalcy for those embarking on extended journeys.
When choosing these items, it's important to consider their compatibility with the rest of your travel gear. For example, pairing a Drowsy eye mask with earplugs and a neck pillow creates a compact yet comprehensive sleep support system, ensuring you arrive at your destination feeling refreshed and well-rested.
Incorporating these items into your travel kit will ensure that no matter where you're headed or how long your journey is, you can maintain a comfortable and relaxing travel experience. So, whether you're flying cross-country or embarking on a transcontinental adventure, remember that the key to a successful trip often lies in the small comforts you bring along. With Drowsy's range of travel essentials, from plush silk eye masks to ergonomically designed neck pillows, you're set for a luxurious and rejuvenating travel experience.

Extra travel hacks to enhance your rest
While pairing the perfect Drowsy eye mask with a supportive pillow is key, there are a few additional items that can elevate your travel comfort further:
-
Drowsy silk pillowcases: You've got the perfect eye mask; now it's time to think about your pillowcase. Drowsy's silk pillowcases are designed to enhance the comfort of your pillow and protect your skin and hair from friction. The smooth surface of silk helps reduce morning wrinkles and frizz, and it's naturally hypoallergenic, making it a great option for sensitive skin. Enjoy a luxurious, hotel-worthy feel even on a plane or in a hotel room.
-
Travel blanket: Weighted blankets aren't just for cozying up at home; they can also be a game-changer during travel. By applying gentle pressure, you create a sense of security and calm, especially when you're feeling anxious or unable to fall asleep. Whether you're using one in your seat on long-haul flights or wrapping up in it for a nap between activities, a weighted blanket adds an extra layer of comfort to your travel routine.
-
Aromatherapy: Sometimes, all you need is a calming scent to set the mood for sleep. Drowsy Sleep S.O.S. Pillow Spray is a perfect companion to your travel routine. Infused with soothing essential oils like lavender and chamomile, it helps create a peaceful, sleep-friendly atmosphere wherever you are. Simply spritz it on your pillow or blanket before settling in, and let the calming fragrance wash over you.
-
Noise-canceling headphones: Blocking out sound is just as important as blocking out light, especially when you're trying to sleep in a noisy environment. Noise-canceling headphones are a must for creating a peaceful atmosphere wherever you are. Pair these with your Drowsy eye mask, and you'll have a fully immersive sleep setup.
