Genius aid for noise sensitivity.
I have been using Flare for a little over a week now, and they have helped me decrease outbursts of overwhelm significantly. I am so grateful for these wonderful little earpieces, and so is my daughter because she can just be her loud, happy little self again without me having a meltdown because of noise sensitivity!

Life changing.
It is amazing! For me I could feel the difference almost instantly. It does take edge of sounds, especially sounds from bad speakers. I never knew noise sensitivity adds day to day stress massively

Working
Calmer is unique in that they work with the natural shape of our ears without blocking the ear canal. It features a hollow chamber that helps reduce harsh frequencies without obstructing airflow or normal sound transmission.
Unlike traditional earplugs, Calmer doesn’t block sound entirely. Instead, it smooths out sharp peaks while maintaining clarity, so you can still hear conversations and ambient noise naturally.
Soothing
Calmer soften stress-inducing mid-frequency distortions (around 2 kHz–8 kHz), which can make sounds like alarms, chewing, or high-pitched voices feel less jarring. Essentially, Calmer fine-tunes how sound waves interact with your ears, reducing stress-triggering noise without compromising awareness.

Takes the irritation out of it!
These bring the noise to a bearable level! Takes the irritation out of it! I hear an echo with my own voice when I’m reading to my kids, but these make it to where I don’t hear that.

Life savers.
I love Calmer, the difference they make for me is amazing. I find low rumble sounds unbearable and I'm unable to zone them out, but with these in I am able to.
They help with my sound sensitivity and ease my anxiety because they help reduce the noise triggers by redirecting the way sounds enter my ears. I have narrow ear cannels and the mini fit perfectly.

Make the world a little more peaceful.
These little beauties are great, especially in loud places like the open plan office and restaurants. They cut down the road noise of driving on the motorway and they make the excited shrieks of my nieces a little less shrill so I feel less overwhelmed when I spend time with family.

I wondered about the Calmer product for a long time and decided to pull the trigger for myself and my wife. I've had tinnitus for well over 10 years and my wife has been experiencing ear sensitivity and blockage issues lately. The product itself is very basic and doesn't seem to warrant the price tag of about $25. Once we tried them, however, the difference was noticeable. Bothersome high-pitch frequencies were dulled and painful sensitivity was lessened, maybe not by 100%, but certainly well above 50%. My issue is that I don't want them in all the time, and putting them in is a bit of a chore. They're very small and tend to slip out unless you remain upright at all times. I think I've used them about 3 times in the past 2 weeks, mostly out of laziness. On another note - I didn't realize these ship from Europe, so definitely plan on them taking at least a week to get to you, and probably longer nowadays. All in all, it's worth a shot if you've got minor sound sensitivity as long as you're ok with the price tag and putting the things in regularly.
The product does what it promise. I am not really sure how, since i don't feel great difference in sound when i take them off, but it's undeniable that i am more calm and noise is not so annoying like before.
They stay in place all day (but sometimes i felt some itch, especially the first day).
The 10 db reduction is exactly what I need in a crowded restaurant.
The only bummer is the way the product is cheaping packaged: it came in a paper bag, it's not a nice paper box you can store if you want to put the flare away for some reason.
Also it is a product that has very little parts and i want to be able to take the - 10db filter with me to use it when i need it. A quality little box is required but i don't think the boxes offered on the website are ok either: too big! the only small is the little capsule but the way it opens is not the best for the little filters: you have to pour it on your hand or a table and in doing so it is very likely that you will drop one of them or they will roll over.
The pouch provided is simply useless to keep very little things like the - 10db filter alones: it doesn't seal perfectly.
The terrible presentation and, more important, the bad and expensive boxes are what made me choose to put a 4 stars review.
These little pieces of magic help when I'm out, especially in a busy restaurant as I have Misophonia. They minimise noise really well & I am able to enjoy an evening out without getting stressed. The normal, everyday clunking of cutlery on plates, loud talking, staff bashing glass bottles together etc, (you get the idea!) but I'm still able to clearly hear the people I'm with & because they are supple, they don't make my tinnitus worse, as other products have done previously.
I cannot recommend them highly enough. Treat yourself, you won't be disappointed.
Our Story
The very first Flare products came to life at our first Flare HQ – a garage in our founders garden. As a small team of three we designed and built our first loudspeakers and provided PA for gigs and festivals.
It wasn’t long before we ran out of space...
