Put the “beauty” back in “beauty sleep” with our 10 favorite things to help you sleep.
Can you remember the last time you scored a good night’s sleep? Yeah, me neither. Instead of feeling bad (or rather, tired) about it, I say let’s throw caution to the wind and stock up on things to help you sleep – and with November being National Sleep Comfort Month, there’s no time like the present.
Here are 10 uber-cozy things to help you sleep:
1. Duvet
Ready to fall in love? This super-comfy geo-inspired duvet by Coyuchi is made of organic cotton. The company itself takes pride in reconnecting consumers with the natural world through its sophisticated designs and organic fibers (check and check).
The Circle Round sheet set by Polver Organic includes one flat sheet, one fitted and two pillowcases, and is made of 300-thread count organic cotton.
If bamboo’s more your thing, you’re in luck: BedVoyage bamboo bed sheets are made from 100 percent bamboo viscose and are available in oodles of colors. This set comes with a deep-pocket fitted sheet, a flat sheet, and two pillowcases (one if you’re ordering twin size).
For those of us whose minds wander to dark and stressy places as soon as our head hits the pillow (especially if tomorrow’s to-do list is more of a scroll), why not let your pillow do the thinking? Made in the USA from an organic flour sack and screen-printed by hand, this charming cotton pillow from One Kings Lane is sure to put your mind on mute.
5. Sleep balm
Badger’s sleep balm is made of a sophisticated blend of essential oils to help quiet your thoughts and clear your mind. It contains rosemary for clear thinking, bergamot to mentally uplift, ginger for strength, and lavender to refresh and relax.
6. Velour robe
This organic cotton velour robe will make every day a spa day. Best of all, it’s designed by Nine Space, a premier supplier of lux eco-friendly bed and bath accessories for gals who care about comfort, style and the environment.
7. Nightgown
This silky-soft nightgown by Only Hearts is made of organic Supima cotton, and detailed simply with a three-button henley placket at the neckline.
This comfy-yet-stylish heather lounge pant by Alternative is made of the company’s signature eco-heather fabric, crafted from a uniquely imperfect blend of organic cotton, recycled polyester, and naturally occurring rayon. It has an adjustable drawstring, wide elastic band, and a flattering wide leg silhouette.
Don’t let the name fool you: The Maniac sweatshirt by Alternative is seriously sporty spice. Made of the company’s signature eco-fleece fabric, this sweatshirt has a bateau neckline, stylish raw edges, and a cozy kangaroo hand pocket.
10. Moroccan blanket
Okay, so this one’s a splurge and then some, but I couldn’t resist mentioning it: This handloomed moroccan blanket is made of soft, organic wool in a graphic tribal pattern, taking the warm and fuzzies to a whole new level.
