Old School Mario Blindfold
I really like the See No Evil Blindfold by Picobong! I have the pink one and my partner has the blue. The mask is adjustable with a velcro strip at the centre back. The neoprene material is really soft and comfortable against the face. It's a great mask for sensory play or for sleeping in. I'm very happy with the mask and would recommend it to others!

Pros
Comfortable, soft, light, cute, easy to clean, adjustable in size, well made, funky packaging.
Cons
does not block out all light (though most blindfolds don't on me).
The See No Evil Blindfold by Picobong is available in the colours pink, blue, and black. I have the pink and blue coloured blindfolds. I really liked the appearance of them when I had seen them. The blocks on the front of the mask remind me of old Mario Brother games for the Nintendo (see photo below).
The packaging to the eye mask is the most funky, odd packaging I have ever seen. It’s a bit silly but the company gets an A+ for creativity. The mask sits inside of a thin, durable plastic casing. The trim of the plastic casing is inflatable with an air valve that you blow into at the back of the packaging. Odd, right?
You can see the mask through the front of the packaging. The front states the company name and website. The back of the packaging has a sticker that states the product name, material composition, and company contact information. The sticker covers the slit in the plastic that you use to access the mask. The sticker comes off really easily. I usually don’t keep packaging for my blindfolds but I probably will for this one just because it’s so unique.
The blindfold is 100% neoprene. The material is very soft and flexible. The blindfold is not stretchy but it is adjustable in circumference with a Velcro closure at the centre back. The Velcro piece is approximately 1 3/8 inches x 3 ¾ inches so you have quite a bit of room for adjusting the size of the blindfolds circumference. I’ve taken a few measurements of the blindfold but if you need any other measurements, please send me a message and I’ll get them for you.
Width (from one end to the other): 25 ½ inches
Length down centre of eye: 3 ½ inches
Length down nose area: 2 ¼ inches
Circumference of mask when done up with Velcro: 19-25 ½ inches
The pink little boxes that make up the design on the front of the blindfold are also made of neoprene. They are soft and squishy. Neoprene is a very light material. Each “box” at the front of the blindfold measures 5/8 of an inch x 5/8 of an inch and there are a total of 38 of them. The boxes are sewn on well to the mask but the very corners on the outer boxes are not sewn completely down. This shouldn’t be a problem though since these boxes are sewn to the other boxes- they won’t fall off.
There is no lining on the inside of the mask (the part that sits against your eyes/face) but it’s not necessary since the neoprene material is really soft and comfortable. The mask does an excellent job at blocking out most light. When I wear the mask, there is a very slender gap between my nose and the blindfold. If I look downwards while wearing the mask, I can see a very tiny amount of light. This is the case with most blindfolds that I have tried though so it’s fairly common.
The See No Evil Blindfold would work excellently for sensory play in the bedroom. It’s also extremely comfortably making it a great option for a sleeping mask. The design is neither feminine nor masculine and the colours available make the blindfold unisex in appearance. Also, it’s a one-size-fits-most that actually will fit most people. I’ve included the smallest to largest circumference of the blindfold in the measurements above so you can easily measure your head before purchasing to ensure it will fit you.
According to EdenFantasys guide to the material, neoprene “has a closed cell structure, (which means that) no dirt will penetrate into the material.” So wiping the blindfold down with a damp cloth is all you really need to do.
Picobong has matching accessories to the blindfold with the same funky Mario pattern. The matching accessories are the Resist No Evil Cuffs, Speak No Evil Choker, Take No Evil Whip, and the Fear No Evil Teaser.
Overall, I’m very happy with my blindfold. My partner has a larger head than me and the blue mask fits him very well without being too tight. I think the design is really cute and the overall quality of the mask is excellent. I would have liked the corner edges of the block pattern to be sewn down but it’s not a huge deal that they aren’t. The material is soft, comfortable, and easy to care for. I wish they had purple blocks so I could buy that one too!

Follow-up commentary
6 months after original review
I still love kicking it old school in my Nintendo Mario blindfold! Both my partner and I have our own and we both enjoy using them. The See No Evil masks are very comfortable. The material is really easy to clean by just wiping it with a damp cloth (and soap if needed). I'm still very happy with my purchase and would still recommend this blindfold to others.
