Summer is officially here - which means hay fever season is in full swing. Cue the sneezing fits, bunged-up noses, itchiness and sore eyes. However, to combat this, shoppers are raving about a cooling eye mask that has been hailed as a godsend for relieving the effects of hayfever, from headaches to sore eyes - and it's currently on sale for £5.39 down from £8.99 and is one of Amazon's 'bestsellers'.
The NEWGO Cooling Eye Mask is a covering for your eyes that provides instant relief and soothing for swollen, puffy, dry and tired eyes and is a great way to combat pain from headaches, migraines, sinuses and stress. The mask is easily worn and has been created with a dual fabric design; one side is made of PVC cover for a more intense coldness while the other is covered in fabric for a milder effect - and is attached with elastic, to fit heads of all sizes.
Containing gel beads, the mask has comfort in mind with the product being flexible enough to mould to your head and has a v-shape hole for your nose. With benefits that aren't limited to hay fever or illness relief, the cold compress of the mask helps refresh your eyes and, according to Amazon, can help you sleep better.

I keep my eye mask in the fridge all the time, it's nice and cool, the mask has a slight weight to it which eases any pain round your eyes, it's great for sleeping as it keeps the light out and it's nice and cool. If you suffer from migraines, give this try."
The mask can be worn on both sides, depending on the level of intensity you require (Amazon)Another said: "This is a great product if you suffer from headaches, migraines or tired puffy eyes that sting. Pop it in the fridge and it feels lovely. One side has the beads and a smooth side which feels colder, the other side is soft and good if you can’t manage something too cold on your skin. Great item!"
One shopper who experiences hay fever said it was great for irritated eyes and remarked: "I ordered this to soothe sore eyes from hayfever...it does the job perfectly." Another echoed this and shared: "I bought this as I get swollen and itchy eyes from hayfever. It is very comfortable and gives relief from the hot itchy feeling."
While some shoppers loved the cooling effect it had in hindering a headache, some people weren't as enamoured with the product to to it being "not that comfortable" for them.
