Breaking news: actually going to bed can be more fun than goofing around on your phone for three hours.

Promising reviews: "This pillow has helped my skin. I no longer have to wake up with lines on my face and dry skin. This pillow allows my face to stay moisturized all night. I plan to buy more." —melissa

"Have purchased two, one in Plum and another in Bronze. Had the Plum for six months to check out the quality. No issues, hand wash and hang dry. Has made a huge difference in my hair, much less breakage, and not as oily. Wonderful for my skin, which is rosacea-prone and feels so much better than cotton. Highly recommend silk pillowcase over a silk bonnet, as it benefits both hair and skin." —Sarah

Get it from Nordstrom for $79.95+ (available in standard, queen, and king sizes and 38 colors/styles).

Promising review: "I love these blackout curtains. They really do their job in allowing absolutely no light in. They work wonderfully if you are looking for complete blackout curtains. I've been looking for curtains like this for a long time. I'm glad I bought these." —Kashmir

Get them from Ikea for $24.99+ (available in two sizes and three colors).

Personalized monogramming is available for an additional $15.

Promising review: "I have gone through my fair share of PJs, but none truly felt up to my standards. Until I came across these!! I bought my first pair a couple of months ago, got obsessed, and bought another one. I still have plans to buy more sets! I am very picky, so I don’t say it lightly, but these are the best PJs ever: the fit, the texture, the color options, the fabric. Would make a perfect gift to family, friends, or yourself." —Laura B.

Get them from Eberjay for $148 (available in women's sizes XXS—XXL and 13 colors).

Promising reviews: "I really enjoy the color. The size chart is accurate. These PJs are so soft and very cooling. I love that they have a drawstring to make them fit better." —Abby S.

"I LOVE these pajamas, they feel as lovely as I expected. I have issues with overheating, so I need PJs that breathe well, and these are perfect. They're well-made and gorgeous. You want these!" —JoAnna

Get it from MeUndies for $88 (available in women's sizes XS—4XL and seven designs; not all designs available in all sizes).

Promising reviews: "I really love my new Kindle. It is lighter weight than the old one and easily fits in my purse. It was easy to set up, and the books in my library were readily available. I can read in bed before I go to sleep without bothering my husband." —Stephanie Marcoux

"I bought this Kindle to replace an older model I had. I love it! There is no glare, the battery lasts a long time, and I love the Dark Mode feature. I like to read in bed before going to sleep, and the Dark Mode setting is perfect for my eyes. Very happy with my new Kindle." —Mariette

Get it from Amazon for $109.99+ (available in two colors, with and without ads, and with or without Kindle Unlimited).

While weighted eye masks have even less evidence than blankets do and very well may be a placebo, they’re a similar concept to weighted blankets. You can read more about what weighted blankets help with and how from Cleveland Clinic.

Promising reviews: "There's something about placing this weighted thing on my eyes when I'm tossing and turning that lulls me back to sleep. The shape of it is a bit weird — it's not a typical eye mask; it's much bulkier and doesn't fasten on in the same way, but once you get beyond that, this can really be a beautiful thing. I keep it on my bedside table and use it if I wake up in the middle of the night and can't go back to sleep (which happens often) or once the sun rises, and I want to sleep in a little more. If you have sleep issues, I'd recommend trying this novel product." —Veronicam

"I love this thing. I don't normally like sleep masks because they squeeze my head and the bands hurt my ears, but this mask is like a weighted blanket just for your eyes. I’m sensitive to light when sleeping and will wake up easily, but this blocks out all the light super effectively. It has a little button hole on one end to slip the other end through if you want it to be more secured to your head, but it’s not necessary. Each side of the mask is a different material as well, one smooth and cool, the other velvety and soft. Both are delightful. Genuinely helps me fall asleep so much faster." —Meegan

Get it from Amazon for $38+ (available in two fabrics and 11 colors/styles).

Promising review: "I have tried so many sleep masks... This is by far my favorite! True blackout! Nice and snug! Well-made! Don't waste your money on anything else!" —maria l bowling

Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in two styles and eight colors).

Promising reviews: "For about 20 years, I've bought pillows from chiropractors or mattress stores or online in an attempt to reduce neck pain, and thankfully I found Coop pillows! Before this, I used an adjustable pillow (sold at my chiropractor's office) that required a special funnel to pour in 1–3 quarts of water to adjust firmness — it was so heavy and never quite right. During Coop's recent sale, I bought four different adjustable pillows to try — they're all carefully designed and so comfortable that I had a hard time deciding which to share with my family. Now we all sleep well — no more "pain in the neck" complaints — especially from us side sleepers!" —Terry A.

"I’ve gone through so many pillows trying to find the right one. I exclusively used down pillows for most of my life, but as I edged closer to 30, I started feeling like I needed more support for my neck. Tried three or four pillows from other popular brands, and returned them all. Then I found this one, almost immediately ordered a second one. It has such great support, no strong smells which I’m very susceptible to, and I wake up every morning without neck pain!" —Emily P.

Get it from Coop for $89+ (available in queen or king sizes and three shapes).

Promising reviews: "Softest blanket ever! Everyone in my house fights over this blanket, it makes the perfect piece of decor on our couch and to cozy up in!" —Tdryan

"These are the softest, most luscious blankets I’ve ever had!" —NicoleHache

Get it from Anthropologie for $98 (available in two sizes and eight colors). 

While weighted plushies have even less evidence than blankets do and very well may be a placebo, they’re a similar concept to weighted blankets. You can read more about what weighted blankets help with and how from Cleveland Clinic.

Promising review: "I’m an adult, and this was for me… I picked Sam, and he is everything everyone said, cute as a button! I usually sleep with a lap-sized weighted blanket, but sometimes it’s too hot. I was actually looking for a weighted pillow to hug and stumbled upon the Hugimals. Could not resist Sam." —denise r.

Get it from Amazon for $68 (also available in nine other styles).

Promising review: "I am a light sleeper and have tried many ways and earplugs to try and drown out external noises. Everything from a dog barking to a bus driving past to loud renovation work in nearby houses always wakes me up (I often sleep during the day for night shifts).

This machine has lasted for five years so far and works 100% to drown out the noise. It doesn’t loop the sounds, so it's a continuous stream of white noise. Can highly recommend it." —cassandra pringle

Get it from Amazon for $53.30 (available in two colors). 

Promising reviews: "My skin absolutely loves this. I like to alternate it with prescription retinol (tretinoin) every other night, and my skin has never looked better in the mornings. I have purchased two times so far." —linz10

"Obsessed with this product. It lasts a long time, and I use it 2–3 times per week. Hydrates, heals, and makes me look like I have a new face in the morning. I'm prone to breakouts, and I find alternating this product with a vitamin C mask every night has been working better than any acne product I've ever tried. Support your skin barriers, people! It's taken me a long time to learn that." —OhVienna98

Promising review: "There's absolutely nobody in the world who can look at that duck and not think, 'I need one of those!" The duck is functional. It has three brightness levels that can be adjusted by tapping the duck's tummy. A fourth tap turns it off. I bought the product because it's cute and it made me laugh. It still does. I have it on my nightstand. I don't want to waste electricity on a night-light all night when I'm sleeping. So I tap it when I get up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom and then tap it off when I get back to bed. That's easy enough that I can do it without really wearing myself out completely. So if you want more lighthearted cuteness in your life, you might as well buy the duck!" —R. Bush

Get it from Amazon for $16.99 (also available in two other styles).

Promising review: "I love my reading light! It has three color settings, though I usually stick to one of the warm yellow ones since I read at night and don't want it to be too bright while my husband is sleeping. It bends to any angle and is easily portable. I don't remember the last time I had to charge it, so the battery lasts a while! The head of the light itself is also not super big, so it doesn't get in the way of reading, but the light spread is wide." —Bekah

Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in 11 colors and a two-pack).

Promising review: "This is probably the nicest bed frame I've ever had. Super great quality. Well-built and doesn't feel or look cheap at all. I love the wood tone/ finish. I'm a big guy, and the bed makes zero noise when I get into it." —Jared G.

Get it from Article for $899+ (available in queen or king sizes, and two finishes). 

Promising review: "I have purchased many mattress toppers in my life and have not found one that I honestly loved 100%. This one is it!!! I don't generally sleep well. I sometimes wake up with lower back pain. I read reviews and decided to try this one. I purchased the 3-inch, and I must tell you, I have slept so well since using this. I don't want to get out of bed — it is true! I recommend this 100%. You will not regret it. FYI... We did not notice any smell with the mattress topper. I have put a mattress cover (cloth with no padding) over it to protect it. Go ahead, try it!" —JOdom

Get it from Amazon for $35.99+ (available in sizes twin–California king, plus cot and short queen, three depths, and three textures). 

Set includes a fitted sheet and 1–2 pillowcases; a flat sheet is optional.

Promising review: "So incredibly soft! If you like soft, silky smooth sheets, then these are for you. They are slightly cooling, so I highly recommend them for any hot sleepers. Well worth it!" —Samantha

Get it from Quince for $72+ (available in sizes twin–California king, 14 colors, and with or without a flat sheet)

Promising review: "My first time purchasing Pact and I'm hooked! Needed stretchy sheets for my oversize queen mattress, and these fit well. I hate getting into cold cotton sheets during the winter, but flannel is often too hot, so I look all over for quality jersey sheets for a decent price. These are great. Loved them so much, I purchased another set for an XL Twin bed." —Maria L.

"Some of the best sheets I’ve slept in. My husband hates sheets, but he loves these!" —Meghan S.

Get it from Pact for $70 (originally $100; available in sizes twin-king and four colors).

Promising reviews: "High-quality, has a velvet interior on the top drawer and cedar in the bottom drawer. Just nice touches. The design is also beautiful. I feel like this is Crate and Barrel-level quality, or maybe even better. The price is really reasonable for such a great quality." —S Avelar

"Beautiful. Good quality, great color. The USB ports are a huge bonus. Comes assembled! Just awesome." —Anonymous

Get it from Wayfair for $379.99 (originally $649.99)

Promising reviews: "Yes, I was skeptical. Cooling fabric, noiseless, breathable; big words for some of us that sleep hot these days. Happy to say, the product works for me. Pillow cases, too. (And my husband hasn’t noticed the addition of either product.)" —E.M.

Get it from Cozy Earth for $138+ (available in twin–king sizes and a crib version).

Promising review: "My husband and I sleep so much deeper and longer thanks to our cooling Buffy sheets and duvet. What a great product!" —Louise W.

Get it from Buffy for $452.90+ (originally $679+; available in sizes twin/ twin XL—king/ California king

Promising reviews: "I’ve already written one review, and now that I have had this robe for a few weeks, I can say it’s even better than I hoped!! If the world accepted robes as attire for work and life, this would be that robe. It’s heavenly. Comfortable, warm, and the biggest thing for me is that it’s actually full-size, meaning it’s long. No mid calf or below the knee business. Highly recommend you won’t regret it. It’s worth every penny!!" —Kelly C.

"The softest, coziest, and warmest bathrobe I’ve ever owned. Love it." —Kimberly d.

Get it from Luxome for $150 (available in unisex sizes S—XL and four colors). 

Promising reviews: "I would give it more than five stars! I appreciate the thought and effort that went into creating this book; it's fun to do it alone or with your partner. I bought one for myself, and my husband wanted to join me, so now we do it together with our morning coffee. It's a blast! I think it would also be a great gift for friends and family. Can't wait to purchase the second volume!" —JayDee

"My husband and I do a few puzzles each night together before bed. We love this book and are gifting it to friends for the holidays this year!! The backstories are hilarious, and we really enjoy solving each puzzle." —Bailey Bell

Promising reviews: "This comforter and the duvet I got for it have contributed to the best sleep I've had in ages, and it's buttery soft and the perfect warmth for all seasons. Highly recommend!" —Andrew G.

"Elite sleep starts with elite bedding, and this comforter delivers. The craftsmanship is obvious the second you touch it. Plush, breathable, and perfectly balanced for recovery-grade sleep. If you view sleep as a performance tool rather than an afterthought, this is one of those purchases that quietly upgrades your daily life. I’d love to buy another, but the price is not light." —Jordan J.

Get it from Brooklinen for $254.15+ (originally $299+; available in sizes twin/ twin XL—king/ California king; also available in lightweight and heavyweight styles).

Promising review: "This pillow has really helped me improve my sleep. I've been having trouble with hip pain when I sleep on my back or my side, so I followed the recommendations to get an extra pillow. I use this one under my knees when I sleep on my back, and between my knees when I am lying on my side, and the difference was immediate from the first night. I sleep more comfortably and don't wake up as often during the night. It's a perfect size and is firm enough to hold my legs but also soft enough to squish to the right shape as I sleep." —Pamela

Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (also available in a two-pack).

Promising reviews: "The best thing to ever happen to me. And the worst thing to happen to my alarm clock, lol." —Emily N.

Get it from Lola Blankets for $135+ (available in sizes small—large and 13 colors). 

Promising review: "This mattress has exceeded our expectations in terms of consistent comfort and quality. We have been sleeping on the Helix Midnight Luxe for three months, and each night has been fantastically comfortable from the first night on. Full disclosure: I can sleep anywhere on anything at any time — like a cat! However, my husband has suffered from terrible neck and back pain for several years. I have not heard him complain about his neck or back once since getting this new mattress. We both genuinely look forward to climbing into bed each night, as we know it’s going to be such a solidly comfortable sleep. Like anyone else, we were a little apprehensive about investing money in a mattress that we had never tested out, but the trial period eased those worries. Not that a trial period was needed! While this is an investment, you get what you pay for. I would recommend this mattress to anyone and everyone. Especially those who suffer with back pain." —Bridget A.

Get it from Helix for $1,136.25+ (available in sizes twin—California king, plus short queen and RV king options).

Promising review: "Best headphones I’ve ever owned, well worth the money, especially if you sleep next to a snorer. The noise-canceling actually works! The multiple ends that come with this are sure to fit comfortably for anyone. Lastly, as a side sleeper, I can actually be on my side comfortably, and these earbuds don’t get that “soggy” feeling ever, not even after having them in all night. 12/10. Definitely recommend." —Nicole Ossanna

Get them from Soundcore for $199.99 (available in four colors).

Promising review: "Best thing to do before bed! This has become my nightly cap before heading to bed. I am not sure why I didn't purchase this sooner, but it's so cute and will be great to look back on in five years! The color, size, and description are perfect! It arrived super fast using Amazon Prime, and I could not be happier. It makes me look at each and every day and pick a small summary to reflect upon. This is a great idea for anyone and can even be used by children and teens. I love the idea of capturing your highlight to reflect on. I think it will be great to see how life has changed and how I have grown as a person in the 5-year span. The directions are provided in the front of the book, and even if you miss a day, it will be super easy to go back and write up the previous summary. I adore these and will be giving them out as gifts when that time comes around." —Eb. Reviews

Promising review: "This lavender room/pillow spray is truly sent from the heavens. I love the smell — it's not overpowering. I went from insomnia to having some good sleep at night. I spray it on my pillow right before I go to bed. It relaxes me, and then I fall right out, giving me a restful night's sleep and waking up rejuvenated. If you have this in your shopping cart, and you're thinking about whether to get it. Do it. It helps a lot, and it doesn't hurt to try it." —Kareen Miller

Get it from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in two sizes; also available in 14 other scents and multi-packs).

Promising review: "I’m a regular whitening strip user, but I wanted something easier before my vacation — so I gave this overnight whitening gel a try, and wow! Within a week, my teeth looked noticeably whiter, and my family even commented on how bright my smile was. It’s so much more convenient than strips — just apply it before bed and let it work while you sleep. No mess, no hassle, and no sensitivity either. Definitely repurchasing this!" —Syd Hutchings

Get it from Amazon for $19.97 (also available in a two-pack).
