These days, it seems like everyone is talking about the importance of sleep. And while there are countless tips out there — no screens in bed, limit caffeine after 2 p.m., etc. — sometimes a well-rested evening can simply come down to what’s on your nightstand.
Take these items for example. From supplements to silky-soft accessories, they strive to get you a full 8 hours a night (or at least make it more comfortable while you do). If you’ve tried everything in the book, then a scan below might be just what you’re looking for.
1. Blueberry Moon Milk Collagen Latte™ Supplement
Keep a canister of this on your nightstand for a soul-soothing late-night treat (with bonus ingredients to put you at ease). Each serving arrives with 10g of bone broth collagen, and melatonin, magnesium and GABA, similar to what makes up the Sleep Collagen Shot. However, this one can be served warm (mix into hot liquid) as a comforting way to enjoy after long day, especially during the winter months.
2. Slip Silk Sleep Mask
A sleep mask is practically a staple for any light snoozer. And if you haven’t yet invested in your own, consider this brand as the creme de la creme in its field. Made with pure silk, it’s gentle on sensitive skin and is soft enough to prevent snagging on other linens. Plus, with several hues to choose from, it makes a striking addition to any stand with the stamp-of-approval to be left out.
3. This Works Deep Sleep Pillow Spray
Inhale the notes of lavender, vetiver and chamomile as you doze off. A couple of spritzes of this calming formula claims to subdue anxiety and get you on your way to drifting off with ease. If anything, however, there’s nothing more welcoming to bed than the thought of a delightfully aromatic pillow to greet you at the end of the day. Yes, please!
4. Sleep Collagen Shot
As part of our lineup of Vital Proteins Collagen Shots comes this snoozy product. Enjoy the flavor of blueberry and lavender, alongside 7g of collagen and sleep-inducing ingredients like melatonin, magnesium and GABA, in a refreshing “sip” right before bed. Since it’s pint-sized, it’s easy to simply toss back.
5. Big Red Rooster Sound Machine
You know those pesky noises (i.e. your clamorous ice maker or the drone of your roomie’s TV) that always seem to keep you up at night? This can help with that. With a variety of sounds featuring everything from rain to white noise, it’ll mask anything distracting you from your Zzz’s. Additional perks include a programmable sound timer and a portable design to take with you whenever you travel, with ranks this selection as one of our favorites.
6. Serene Home Supernova Diffuser
We love a good diffuser — and a pretty one at that! This one checks both boxes with its contemporary flair and effective, mist-emitting functionality. Add your favorite calming essential oils, like lavender or chamomile, and watch as an array of soft LED lights gently help you doze off in no time.
7. Moonlit Skincare Overnight Facial Oil
We're saving an editor fave for last! Nod off to the smell of lavender, knowing your face will feel supple come sunrise. This facial oil is like *magic* in a bottle, working to moisturize and even skin with the help of jojoba and sunflower oils, while ginseng and papaya help with skin cell turnover. What more could you want out of a bottle?
