Our Founder Story
Hello! I’m Amanda, the heart behind Cosy London—a brand inspired by my love for sustainability, wellness, and the joy of empowering others.
Born and raised in Johannesburg, South Africa, I’ve always felt a deep connection to London. While exploring missing pieces of my family history, I discovered that my maternal ancestors have a long-standing history in East London, where generations of my family were involved in the textile business.
It’s truly heartwarming that, generations later, I’m crafting our masks in East London. It feels like life has come full circle, aligning perfectly with my family’s legacy.
Ever since I can remember, covering my ears and eyes during sleep has provided me with comfort, safety, and a sense of privacy—like a gentle hug as I drift off. But when I set out to find the perfect sleep mask, I kept coming up short. They were either too bulky, too hot, or poorly made, leaving me searching for something that simply didn’t exist.
So, I took matters into my own hands. I dreamed of a mask that’s smooth and flat, free from any lumps or bumps, ensuring comfort in any sleeping position. It would be light, breathable, and made of the highest-quality, sustainable fabrics. Above all, it would be ethically and locally crafted, supporting a vibrant community of talented makers and artisans.
But Cosy London isn’t just about creating the perfect mask—it’s about making a difference in the city I live in and am deeply connected to.Through our partnership with FabricWorks—a wonderful social enterprise uplifting women overcoming employment barriers—we ensure that every mask carries a story of hope and opportunity. It’s this commitment to sustainability, wellness, and community that makes Cosy London truly special.
My mission is to inspire conscious consumption and show that comfort, care, and responsibility can beautifully coexist. With Cosy London, I hope to bring you more than just a better night’s sleep—I want to create products that feel good, do good, and make the world a little brighter.
Creating Cosy London eye masks has been a real labour of love. After years of prototyping, refining, and chasing perfection, I’ve crafted a product that I’m genuinely proud of. Each mask is thoughtfully made with care, using sustainable materials and ethical practices that align with my values.
I truly believe that once you experience the comfort and quality for yourself, you’ll never want to sleep without one again. Cosy London is more than just a product—it’s about creating little moments of rest, care, and comfort that we all deserve.
