Can I Heat or Chill My IKOU Eye Pillow?Updated 3 months ago

Can I Heat or Chill My IKOU Eye Pillow?

Yes — your IKOU Eye Pillow can be enjoyed both warm and cool, making it a versatile addition to your wellness routine.

To Warm Your Eye Pillow

Place the Eye Pillow in the microwave alongside a small microwave-safe cup of water. Heat for 20–30 seconds, then check the temperature before use. If you'd like it warmer, continue in 10-second increments until you reach your preferred temperature.

The cup of water creates a humid environment that helps protect the flax seeds and fabric casing during heating.

⚠️ Always test the temperature before placing over your eyes. It should feel comfortably warm — not hot.

To Chill Your Eye Pillow

Place the Eye Pillow in a sealed bag and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before use.

Good to Know

  • A warmed Eye Pillow can help encourage deep relaxation and ease tension around the eyes
  • A chilled Eye Pillow may provide a refreshing and soothing sensation for tired or strained eyes
  • Do not place the Eye Pillow in the freezer or microwave without water, as this may damage the filling or fabric
