The Binchotan eye mask from [Urban Outfitters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/futurewise) is a travel-ready beauty tool that will make you feel refreshed and younger. The $23 product is designed to relieve fatigue and will help relax its user. The eye mask does so by improving one's blood circulation and by easing pressure on the optic nerve.

In addition to being made with Binchotan charcoal, this soothing eye mask also features convenient packaging that is perfect for on-the-go use. Whether [travelling abroad or sleeping over](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/satin-sleep-mask) at a best friend's house, the mask's Ziploc-like wrapper makes it easy to throw into a small purse or a piece of luggage.

The transparent bag can also be reused and will protect the silky texture of the mask. Use this product when relaxing, meditating or even as a remedy against sinus pains.
