I take my sleep very seriously, especially now that I’m a parent! I typically do a lot of research before buying sleep products and don’t mind investing in something if it will help improve my sleep. Over the past year I’ve discovered some great sleep products on Amazon that have completely upgraded my sleep environment. From all natural pillows and silk pillowcases to overnight lip treatments and the best dry shampoo…I’m rounding up all the products you need to get a good night sleep AND have you feeling great when you wake up in the morning!

ALL NATURAL PILLOWS
Good sleep starts with a good pillow! Out of all the pillows I’ve tried over the years, these ALL NATURAL JUVEA PILLOWS are by far the most comfortable. JUVEA products are MADE IN THE USA with 100% natural latex (completely toxin free!) Their pillows are naturally breathable, supportive, hypoallergenic, and antimicrobial. They offer a pillow for every type of sleeper – soft, firm, cool, hot, side, stomach, or back. No matter what your sleeping preference, they have an option for you! For more info on these pillows, see my post JUVEA ALL NATURAL PILLOWS.
DRY SHAMPOO POWDER
They key to good hair when you wake up in the morning is using the right products at night! I always apply my dry shampoo right before bed and let it absorb and do it’s thing overnight. I love that this particular DRY SHAMPOO is powder form (rather than aerosol.) I “spray” this powder at my roots and use my fingers to gently rub into my scalp focusing on the areas that normally get greasy. When I wake up in the am, my hair is completely grease-free and voluminous.
SILK SLEEP MASK
If you find yourself waking up in the morning to bright light sneaking through your bedroom windows, consider getting a soft SLEEP MASK. Also a great option to travel with – both on the plane and in a hotel room, when you’re unsure what sleeping conditions might be like. This mask is made of mulberry silk which is nice and soft on the delicate skin around your eyes. Wearing a silk sleep mask can actually protect the skin around your eyes from stretching (especially for side and stomach sleepers!)…in turn, helping to prevent wrinkles! You may notice that simply wearing a sleep mask may help you fall asleep faster – the soft and light pressure on your eyes will help you relax.
ESSENTIAL OIL DIFFUSER
I know essential oils are not for everyone, but they help me fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer. Some of my favorite essential oils to use for sleep are lavender, cedarwood, frankincense and eucalyptus. I’ve purchased several of these ESSENTIAL OIL DIFFUSERS to use throughout my house. I love the simple design that blends with any decor (several color options available.) The design is also nice and wide so it’s easy to clean!
EUCALYPTUS SHOWER SPRAY
Though eucalyptus oil is more of a rejuvenating scent, it can also help you prepare for rest and relaxation. Thats what I love so much about this PURE EUCALYPTUS OIL SHOWER MIST! If you take showers in the evening, spritz this mist in your shower once the water is hot and steamy. The scent will fill the room and feel very reminiscent of a spa experience at home. It’s one of my favorite ways to both wake myself up in the morning, and relax before bed. Especially helpful if you suffer from sleep apnea.
LIP SLEEPING MASK
Don’t forget to hydrate your lips before bed! I keep this LIP SLEEPING MASK on my nightstand to use every night before hitting the sheets. Applying a lip mask at night allows the product plenty of time to penetrate, leaving your lips feeling supple, refreshed and soft to the touch. No peeling, cracking or flaking. This is by far the most effective lip product I’ve ever used.
BAMBOO NIGHTGOWN
I’m pretty particular about pjs. I like something that’s made of a soft, comfortable and stretchy fabric that’s also great quality and will wash well. Many of the pajamas I’ve purchased in the past feel great the first few washes, then start to deteriorate and pill (I hate pilling!) This BAMBOO NIGHTGOWN is exactly what I was looking for. The bamboo fabric is soft as can be and it’s held up really well in the wash (no pilling so far!) It fits true to size and comes in a variety of colors.
ORGANIC NIGHTY NIGHT TEA
If you have trouble sleeping at night, there are several remedies that can help…MAGNESIUM, MELATONIN, etc. However, one of my favorites is NIGHTY NIGHT TEA. I started incorporating this into my nighttime routine and now look forward to a hot cup of tea every evening before bed. It’s earthy, minty and herbal. Main ingredient is valerian which is a gentle, time-tested herbal sedative. All ingredients are certified organic.
SOUND MACHINE
I didn’t start sleeping with a SOUND MACHINE until later in life, but what a difference it made! Having some sort of white noise in the room creates a much more enjoyable and uninterrupted sleeping experience. This sound machine has 14 Soothing Sleep Soundtracks…3 white noise, 3 lullabies, 3 fan sound effects and 5 relaxing natural sounds. Also great for baby’s nursery! Adjustable nightlight, timer and memory function too! We keep an extra one in our guest suite for our overnight guests.
WEIGHTED BLANKET
This was my first ever WEIGHTED BLANKET purchase and it did not disappoint! Weighted blankets are known for helping you relax to sleep. I did a lot of research before grabbing this one. I wanted something with a soft, removable cover that could be washed. This cover on this weighted blanket could not be more soft and cozy AND is machine washable (many weighted blankets cannot be washed and do not include covers.) I have the 54″ x 72″ inch 12 lb blanket in ivory and it’s perfect! Would make a great gift too.
SILK PILLOW CASE
If you’re not sleeping on silk, it’s time to upgrade! There are so many benefits to using a SILK PILLOWCASE. Similar to the silk SLEEP MASK listed above, a silk pillowcase is gentle on your skin and therefore proven to slow the formation of wrinkles and fine lines on your skin. Silk is also great for your hair! If your hair gets tangled while you sleep or you wake up with bed head, a silk pillowcase will help tame and control your hair while you sleep. I love this brand in particular because they offer 100% pure and organic mulberry silk. Select the IVORY option for a non-dyed completely chemical free color option (all other colors are chemically dyed.)
