Happy Sleep Earplugs
What sizes do the earplugs come in?
One size fits all. Happy Sleep Earplugs are made from mouldable silicone that adapts to any ear shape. Instead of inserting them into your ear canal, you shape them to create a custom seal over the outer opening.
Are they reusable?
Yes. Unlike foam plugs that lose their bounce, Happy Sleep Earplugs can be reused until they lose their tackiness or become soiled.
How do I clean them?
Lightly wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Never soak them in water or use alcohol-based cleaners, as this will break down the silicone's ability to seal.
How long do they last?
Typically, 1–2 weeks per pair with daily use. You’ll know it’s time for a fresh pair when the material feels less "mouldable" or starts to look discoloured.
Do they come with a case?
Yes, every pair of Soundbuds includes a compact travel case to keep them clean and protected while you're on the move.
Can I use them for travel / studying / concerts?
Their use spans far beyond sleep. The airtight seal created by the mouldable silicone makes Happy Sleep Earplugs ideal for blocking cabin noise on flights, maintaining focus while studying, or protecting your hearing at loud concerts.
Are they safe for everyday use?
Yes. They are made from medical-grade, hypoallergenic silicone that sits on the ear opening rather than deep inside, reducing the risk of irritation or pressure buildup.
Are they suitable for children?
Yes, however, adult supervision is required for children under the age of 15. Always ensure the earplug is large enough to cover the outer ear opening only and is never inserted directly into the ear canal.
