Description
These weighted and scented lavender eye pillows are perfect for providing a relaxing end to your meditation or yoga session or to help you unwind after an exhausting day of work or study.
Each eye pillow adds just the right amount of weight to apply gentle acupressure benefits, relieving tension and calming the muscles of tired eyes whilst you breath in the aromatic lavender and relax.
Lavender is proven to be a natural remedy for a range of ailments, from sleeplessness and anxiety to depression and migraines or tension headaches and the scent of lavender will last for years with this pillow, just squeeze it from time to time to renew the lovely relaxing scent.
These have been made with a 100% cotton outer pillow which can be removed and washed when needed and 100% cotton inner bag containing dried lavender and flax seed. My standard ones are supplied pre filled and sealed but if you would prefer them unfilled and resealable then let me know when you place your order as I can alternatively make them with a hook and loop strip seal so you can fill them yourself.
These can be used at room temperature or for a warm compress you can warm them on a radiator or in the microwave for 10 second bursts. For a cold compress they can be placed in the freezer for 30 mins to help with headache relief, migraines, sinus headaches or tired eyes.
Lavender can be used to help sleep so you could slip one under your pillow.
To avoid any staining to the covers I recommend using the eye pillow on a clean face, free from make up or moisturiser/oils
When not in use you could pop them into a drawer as lavender is a well known natural and effective moth repellent.
These would make wonderful self care gifts for friends and loved ones or a pamper gift for yourself. They come packaged in a biodegradable celo bag with an info sheet so your recipient will know how to use them.
I currently have four different outer cover designs to choose from although I am happy to take requests for cover designs, if you have something specific in mind then drop me a message to discuss. I can also make matching sets for groups and yoga retreats.
