I got something similar (amazon yoolax blackout cellular honeycomb shades). They have extra help from L-shaped side panels blocking light along the sides.

bedroom is ultra-dark, with just a hint of light.

Those are pretty slick, will check those Yoolax ones out, have manual versions from Ikea that work well for both temperature control and light control.
