1. A deep pocket sheet set that won't pop off the second you reposition yourself. Imagine that!!!! PS: The set even comes with four pillowcases so all of your bases are covered.
Promising review : "I love linens and am very picky about fabrics, softness, and durability. I ordered two sets for my bed. After sleeping on them and washing several times, I ordered two more sets for both of our spare bedrooms.
I am also going to purchase several pairs for Christmas gifts. They fit my king bed very well and the softness and cuddly feeling you get sleeping on them is beyond wonderful. Buy a pair.
You won't regret it! " — Mimi Freeman Get them from Amazon for $18.06+ (available in sizes Twin–California King and in nine colors). 2.
A pillow-top mattress pad you can sink into like you're in a slow-mo mattress commercial. Just don't go trying to balance a glass of red wine on it, okay? The breathable, deep-pocket topper hugs your mattress like a fitted sheet, so you don't have to worry about it popping off in the middle of the night. Plus — major plus — it's machine washable, so you don't have to drag it to the dry cleaners.
Promising review : "Whoaaa this thing is amazing. I have a very expensive, firm mattress, that I bought when I was younger. The mattress is still in good shape so I didn’t want to get rid of it.
The firm thing just wasn’t working for me anymore. I had a foam mat but it still was too hard. So I got this, put this over the foam mat and it’s like a new mattress.
I slept like a rock last night. Haven’t slept that good in a long time. I also like that it’s attached to the mattress pad, so it’s not sliding all over.
It slept very cool, I’m assuming that’s because is cotton. Highly recommend if you’re looking to fix a mattress and not have to spend money on a new one." — Julie Get it from Amazon for $76.
99+ (available in sizes Twin–California King). 3. A trio of hydrating lip sleeping masks for just $10 (!!) if you've been hesitant to drop $$$ on a singular Laneige lip mask .
For reference, the Laneige lip mask contains 20 grams of product, while each of these measures 5 grams, or 15 grams for the entire set. So even with product sizes taken into account, these are a much better deal! Promising review : "It’s been four months since ordering this, and it’s now part of my nightly routine. I can’t go to bed before putting this on.
I highly recommend this! And it’s worth it to get the three-pack. The flavors are not overly sweet, and I think my favorite is the berry. I like it more than the Laneige night lip mask.
For me, Laneige absorbs pretty quickly, and in the morning, I feel like my lips are dry again . With these, my still lips feel moisturized in the morning . It has a thicker consistency.
I used to get dry/peeling lips pretty often as I’m outdoors/in the ocean a lot. However, since incorporating this into my routine, I haven’t had peeling lips in a long time. Loooove these!" — Angela Get it from Amazon for $9.
90 (available in four combos). 4. Some Mighty Patch hydrocolloid nose patches you can slap on overnight to suck sebum and oil out of your poor lil' pores.
Then, when you wake up in the morning, you can gently peel it off and examine your spoils. 😈 Promising review : "These things work! I’ve been dealing with bad breakouts recently and could not figure out what was causing them. I was recommended to try these and let me tell you, the stuff that came out of my pores was unreal .
I’ve tried charcoal face masks, and nothing has worked as well as these. My face is finally clearing up." — Hannah Braswell Get a set of 10 from Amazon for $16.
55 . 5. A popular checkerboard throw blanket that's garnered comparisons to Barefoot Dreams' much more expensive option.
Promising review : "This blanket beats others because it is softer (a buttery and fluffy feeling), it is long enough for a 5'10" tall person, it is not too light and not too heavy (works year-round in Virginia), and it has a stretch to the material that I haven’t experienced with other soft blankets. The design is just so-so, but the colors are nice, and the price is right. If they updated the designs with more colors, patterns, then these would be absolutely perfect.
I like this as much as my much more expensive Barefoot Dreams blanket and Williams Sonoma faux-fur blanket ." — JH Get it from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in six colors and four sizes).
6. A Casper pillow because you haven't replaced yours in ohhh, three or four years? If they have sweat marks and unexplained stains..
. they're a lost cause, boo. The popular, anti-clumping pillow features a cotton cover with a breathable percale weave that allows for ample airflow.
It's also removable, so you can throw it in the wash whenever it needs a refresh. Promising review : "My husband and I gave these to each other for Christmas. I have a lot of neck problems, and he just doesn't always sleep well.
These pillows are amazing. We both sleep so much better. I cannot believe how it has relieved me from waking up with a crick in my neck.
I sleep deeper and I love the way this cradles my head but supports my neck. We didn't buy sooner because of the cost, but it is worth every penny!" — Connie Lovell Get it from Amazon for $58.50+ (available in two sizes and packs of one or two).
7. Or an adjustable pancake pillow so you can stop punching your existing pillow into submission. Feeling like a flat, barely-there pillow? Pull out one or more of the six inserts.
Need a whole lotta support the next night? Stuff 'em back in. The queen-size pillow features a zippered design so you can easily pull out/readjust the down-alternative inserts as needed. Promising review : "Thank god for this pillow!!! I’ve been on the search for a while now and I am so happy with this one.
I took two of the layers out and now it’s perfect for me. Nice and soft and still supportive. I’m sleeping so much better now.
" — Anna Durtschi Get it from Amazon for $79.99+ (available in two sizes). 8.
Orrrr — last or, I promise — a pair of *affordable* down-alternative cooling pillows if you're a particularly sweaty bed rotter. Promising review : "My philosophy..
, you need to love your job and love your bed because that's where you spend most of your hours. Anyway, I don't work anymore but I dang sure love my bed! High-quality mattress, nice linens, and THESE pillows! They are PERFECT!!!! There isn't a single thing that can be improved because they are like sleeping on a cloud that supports you perfectly..

9. A microwaveable, lavender-scented weighted plushie that'll come in clutch whenever you're dealing with a bout of anxiety, braving a really bad tummy ache, or could just use a warm embrace. Promising reviews : "This product changed my life.
Seriously, I never knew I could love an inanimate object so much. His heavy body is so comforting; at the end of the day, all I want is a hug. He even helped me quit nicotine.
Instead of reaching for the Juul, I would reach for his big belly instead. I'm not even joking. This guy is the best thing I have ever spent my money on.
Do yourself a favor and get a Warmie." — Bryan & Dana "I bought this for cramps and the occasional aches and pains. He is absolutely perfect.
He is so cute and adorable, and I find myself reaching for him even when I am not in pain. He’s so snuggly and perfect to cuddle up with and is great for anxiety ." — Samantha Get it from Amazon for $29.
99 (see all available Warmies here ). 10. A reading pillow so you can sit propped up in bed like the grandparents from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory whenever you're feeling a bit more ~ambitious~.
Promising review : "I am delighted with this product. I like to use it while reading and I also use it while sitting on the couch to watch TV. It is the perfect size and extremely supportive yet also cozy A+.
" — Tiffany Starr Get it from Amazon for $32.78+ (available in four colors). 11.
Some sheet fasteners which are basically like suspenders for your mattress, because nothing ruins a good chilling in bed session like having the corner of your fitted sheet pop off as you roll over. See them on TikTok here . Promising review: "I LOVE these!!!! I toss and turn in my bed all night, and I also have a mattress topper, so my sheets always came off the corners.
I’ve had these for about a month and my sheets haven’t moved an INCH!! One of the best things I’ve ever bought on Amazon, seriously. It’s definitely a first world problem, but to not have to fix my sheets every morning is the absolute highlight of my day!! Such a bargain at the price too! Easy installation! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THESE!!!" — Amy Get a set of four from Amazon for $8.95+ (available in two sizes and three colors).
12. A SwitchBot button pusher you can install over any light switch or button-activated device so you can turn everything you own into a smart device. That way, when you're seven hours deep into a Love Island marathon and you literally couldn't be comfier, you can turn off your lights or turn on your fan — via Alexa, Google Home, or an app on your phone — without having to get out of bed.
Reviewers love this because it doesn't require you to "smart enable" other parts of your home. It's also a great way to turn on your kettle or coffee brewer from the other room so it's ready for you when you get out of bed! Promising review: "Super great! Comes with clear instructions, the mobile app is clear and well designed and it's super easy to set the whole thing up. Honestly I'm really happy with the product.
Now I don't have to get up all the time when I inevitably forget to turn the lights off. I can just hit the button on my phone and VOOP the little arm comes out and presses the switch!" — Noah R. Get it from Amazon for $29 (available in white and black).
13. NodPod — a weighted sleep mask that offers gentle, evenly distributed pressure and a light- and sound-blocking experience so you can feel like you're in a sensory deprivation tank minus the water and $10,000 upfront cost. Nodpod is a woman-founded small business that specializes in these sleep masks.
Promising review: " The best thing I ever bought!!! This NodPod is most amazing. It’s soft, but weighted just enough to make it stay in place while you fall asleep. There’s no band that goes around the head, so it’s less constricted.
It’s great for those who work the graveyard shift and need to sleep when it’s still light and sunny. I would recommend this to everyone!" — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $34 (available in five colors). 14.
Or a blackout satin sleep mask if even an IOTA of light will spell out the end of nap time. Kitsch is an LA-based, self-financed, woman-owned small business established in 2010. Promising review : "It fits well on my small head and is SUPER comfortable! I'm a side sleeper and this lays flat on my ears and I don't even feel it there.
The material is so soft and it feels thin but blocks ALL of the light. I'll definitely be buying more." — Amanda Gagne Get it from Amazon for $15.
99+ (available in three styles). 15. An orthopedic knee and leg pillow if you're a side sleeper dealing with back or hip pain.
This bebe can help relieve pressure and get you a better night's sleep. It even comes with an adjustable strap if you're someone who tosses and turns in their sleep (or if you're using it to recover from an injury that may lead to limited mobility). Psst — a lot of pregnant reviewers and reviewers with arthritis pain and cartilage pain swore by this, too ! Promising review: "I'm 49 and a lifelong athlete and fitness trainer.
I train a lot, and I also spend a great deal of time driving. I am struggling with piriformis syndrome in my right leg, plus I have an old knee injury in my left leg. I also sleep only on my side at night.
Sleeping with a pillow above my knees has worked okay and has helped, but it is hard keeping it in place. I bought this to try, and it's awesome! It stays in place, is very comfortable, and has helped my issues in reducing stress in my legs enormously. It was a little thicker than I expected it to be and took a little getting used to, but now it's great.
Having the strap has been really helpful because it stays in place when I switch from sleeping on my one side to my other side during the night." — Christine T. Mitchell Get it from Amazon for $32.
25 . 16. A MASSIVE 10-foot-by-10-foot throw you and your dog can cuddle up under when you move from your bed to your couch — AKA the most steps you'll get in this weekend.
If you're having a hard time imagining just how big "big" is — this blanket is four times the size of your average throw! And — because this small biz truly gets marketing — that's 7'4" NBA player Boban Marjanovic modeling the gray blanket above. Promising review : "It’s big, soft and just heavy enough. It’s a bit pricey but it’s quality.
Quality blankets are worth it. I will be getting more after the holidays. Great product.
Fits everyone and the dog with more room to spare. " — Greg Faunce Get it from Amazon for $179 (available in eight colors and three styles). 17.
An ultra-affordable silk pillowcase that will prevent you from flipping and re-flipping your pillow in a desperate bid to chase the cool side. Promising review: "Love these pillowcases! They are very soft on my face because I’m a side sleeper, and I got the Blissy ones last Christmas, and they were ridiculously overpriced, and these are just as good if not better!" — Sally "I bought these cases to match a new sheet set. I previously had bought much more expensive brands to match other sheets but I love the Bedsure brand of products and wanted to try these out.
Arguably, they’re softer than my more expensive ones! They did arrive very wrinkled, but a quick wash and dry, and they’re shiny and wrinkle-free. I like the envelope closure a lot more than competing brands' zip closure. Highly recommend!" — Hannah Watkins Get a set of two from Amazon for $6.
98+ (available in standard, queen, kind, and body pillow sizes and 36 colors). 18. A BedShelfie to pop on the side of your bed so you have room for snacks, small electronics, and whatever else gets lost in the sheets during your daily siesta.
PS: This is a small biz that found success on Kickstarter! Promising review: "At first, I was going to try to find something inexpensive, but after looking at everything and reading all of the reviews, I ordered this product for my son's dorm room. It arrived well-packaged and even better than I had hoped. The quality of the product is exceptional, very well-built, and super easy to install.
My son was confident about putting his expensive notebook on it even though the shelf is on the highest part of his loft. The shelf is very solid and looks great." — Allison M.
Get it from Amazon for $37.99+ (available in three sizes). 19.
A down alternative duvet insert that'll pretty much transform your bedroom into a luxury suite at a 5-star hotel. Literally all you have to do is put it on top of your bed. You're welcome.
Promising review : "This is the BEST comforter I own! I debated buying for a while and finally did it! When it arrived, it was vacuum sealed. Opened it up, and it quickly fluffed up! I ordered the California King. I chose to keep mine out of a cover because it is so delightful on the skin! I am amazed at the comfort of something so reasonably priced!!!!!! You won't regret getting this!!! " — Melissa Get it from Amazon for $24.
99+ (available in sizes Twin–California King and in 12 colors/designs). 20. Or a Rest Evercool Cooling Comforter with temperature-regulating, moisture-wicking fabric so you don't have to rip apart your bed in an attempt to get quality sleep.
The brand's proprietary fabric has a "feel temperature" (aka a Qmax Score) much lower than cotton, bamboo, silk, and lyocell! Promising reviews : " I have no idea how this works, but it does! It’s actually cool to the touch! I am always hot and don’t sleep well because of it. This blanket is a game changer!" — Rhonda M. "Ever since I moved to south Florida, I have been unable to use any sort of comforter or duvet because I am such a hot sleeper.
In fact I haven’t used anything besides a top sheet in what feels like ages. This comforter has completely changed that for me. It feels so fantastic against the skin, and my only regret is that I didn’t purchase one when I first saw the ad last year.
If you sleep warm, this is 100% the best thing for your bed. " — Steven S. Get it from Rest for $139+ (originally $199+; available in sizes Twin/Twin XL–King/Cali King and in six colors) or Amazon for $199+ .
21. The Crème Shop's Overnight Gel Mask which pampers your skin with ultra-hydrating, vitamin A-rich watermelon. 🍉 The formula also goes on super cool 🧊, which is ideal if you're battling irritation or just live in a constant state of hot flash.
PS: The Crème Shop is a small biz! I use this mask two to three times a week, and I LOVE it. I am not a huge fan of creamy formulas, so the first thing I adore is the jelly-like texture which, don't worry, also isn't sticky at all. Secondly, it's just so dang refreshing.
I leave mine on my bathroom counter, but it still somehow feels like it's been refrigerated?? Ofc the watermelon scent is also delish, and it delivers on its promise to leave you hydrated and radiant. Promising review : "This feels very cooling when first applied, which felt really great when I was dealing with red, irritated skin from over-exfoliating. It definitely makes a huge difference in how my skin feels when I wake up.
Without it, I wake up with dry, tight skin. Even though it's hydrating, it doesn't feel really sticky when I apply it, and it absorbs quickly. I usually use two layers of it because my skin is so dehydrated.
This is such a good deal. Very similar to the much pricier options." — Kelsie K.
Get it from Amazon for $14.89 . 22.
A set of blackout curtains that not only block out light, but heat, too! That way, you don't wake up feeling like you're a wheel of brie being baked at 350 degrees. Promising review: "I have five tall windows in my apartment, and the Texas heat is horrible on my electric bill. I got the curtains to block the heat as well as reduce the noise of the loud traffic outside my living room windows.
The curtains block the sun's heat perfectly. They keep the inside cool and my electric bill down (which is just a WIN to me). As far as noise reduction, they don't really reduce the noise, but they do soften it.
Since the curtains are black, the blackout is strong! When I close the curtains, the room is in total darkness! Overall, I like the curtains, and the look is very chic. I plan to buy another pair for my bedroom." — ASunflower Get it from Amazon for $19.
95+ (available in 18 sizes and 35 colors). 23. A Hatch white noise machine so you can be lulled to sleep by the calming sound of a crackling fire or pitter-patter of rain on a window instead of the cacophony of car horns, fireworks, and backyard BBQs that are *actually* going on outside your home.
The white noise machine offers so much more, too. It also has sunrise/sunset features to help you rise and shine naturally instead of to the blare of an alarm and you can control everything right from your phone. You can personalize and automate your routine as well as fire up sleep stories and meditations with your included free trial of Hatch Premium.
Promising review : "Expensive but worth it for increased sleep quality. You can set a sleep schedule with a certain amount of time with a reading light (or not), then a wind-down period with options for meditation, mindfulness, storytelling, relaxing music, etc. When that’s done, then you can choose from a number of sounds like white noise, forest sounds, or ocean waves.
It’s all quite relaxing. It actually keeps me off my phone in the evening, so instead of scrolling through garbage on the internet, I read actual literature and then have a guided relaxing meditation exercise before I drift off to the sound of gently chirping crickets. I sleep like a rock before waking to the gently rising Malibu sunrise and softly twittering birds in the background .
It is much less jarring than the many alarms I had to set in the past." — Marley Get it from Amazon for $99.99 .
24. Or a more affordable option that doesn't include a night-light but does still offer you calming soundscapes like crashing waves and thunderstorms. Promising review : "Works great.
My room faces the street on the second floor, so I get a lot of street noise especially at night and early in the morning. I'm usually a heavy sleeper but have been woken up repeatedly by people's conversations as they walk by, trucks in the morning, and neighbors. I put this on the loudest setting and I sleep like a rock.
It's seriously been a lifesaver. " — Lu H. Get it from Amazon for $49.
99 (available in four colors). 25. A breathable Cool+ throw from Coop if you're the type of person who LOVES being under a blanket 24/7 despite your body's inclination to overheat.
The throw has a .428 out of .500 Qmax Score , meaning it's far cooler to the touch than bamboo, silk, and name-brand synthetic fabrics.
Get it from Coop for $76+ (available in two sizes and three colors). 26. A set of Japanese-engineered cooling pillowcases with fibers that absorb your body heat as you sleep.
How cool is that?! Promising review : "Finally found pillows that are worth every penny!!! I am buying more ASAP! I have a sweating problem and also have my bedroom on the third floor of my home, so the heat rises, which doesn’t help my hot flashes at all! I have a hard time finding a pillowcase that isn’t sticky feeling, too hot to lay on, etc. I really appreciate that there is a zipper on one end of each pillowcase to zip up your pillow to keep your pillow inside from slipping or falling out! These pillowcases are cool to the touch, super soft, and they are super comfortable to lay on, to the point I woke up with drool all over my face from the remarkable amount of great sleep I had! This pillowcase doesn’t get that overwhelming warm, sticky feeling after laying on it for a while. It stays comfortable to lay on all through the night! I’m incredibly happy and grateful to finally find pillowcases that are exactly what anyone with sweating issues and hot flashes need and want in pillowcases.
" — CosmeticatedReviews Get them from Amazon for $18.95+ (available in standard, queen, and king sizes and in nine colors). 27.
A full body pillow that was *technically* made for pregnant people but just as suitable for side sleepers and those with a variety of aches and pains. Psst — it's even detachable to convert into a reading station. (Or create a hole for your arm if you're a side sleeper!) Promising review: "I’m on my fourth pregnancy.
I’ve had insomnia every pregnancy, so I figured it was inevitable this pregnancy, too. I thought pregnancy pillows were a waste of money, but after reading some reviews, I decided to try this one. Let me just tell you, I sleep like a ROCK! I pass out within five minutes, and I don’t wake up at all.
On the rare occasion I do wake up, I’m able to fall right back to sleep. Definitely play around with it until you figure out a way that works for you." — Kay0115 Get it from Amazon for $39.
95+ (available in 15 colors). 28. A set of Bedsure cooling sheets so you can enjoy your four-hour midday nap and not flip and flop around like a hot dog on a damn grill.
Promising review : "Summer sucks for me, I always overheat! But honestly these really do the trick. The bamboo is so soft and breathable and makes the sheets feel super silky. And they actually do help keep you cooler at night! I have no complaints.
And the color is true to the photos. I will definitely come back for another set in the future. Love this product.
" — Dalia Get them from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in sizes Twin–California King and in 30 colors). 29.
A split blanket and sheet set if your favorite way to rot away in bed is with a partner who's PERFECT in every single way except for when they touch you with their cold toes. Promising review : "This blanket is a great idea that I can't believe I didn't think of! No more blanket hogging or cold nights with too little cover. It's luxuriously soft and lightweight!" — Tracy Get it from Uncommon Goods for $89+ (available individually or as a set in Queen or King sizes and in two colors).
30. And a set of motorized shades that can block out light with the push of a button or a simple Alexa voice request. The blackout shades can be controlled via a remote or your Alexa or Google Assistant device.
Since each is made to order, you don't have to worry about tricky window dimensions, either. Promising review : "I have three large windows that these are up on. I have yet to sync them for a schedule, but I use the motor daily.
The heat blocking on these is awesome, and I have noticed a huge difference in the room where these are installed. My AC is not constantly running to keep the house cool any longer, and I am looking forward to slightly lower power bills this summer ." — S Get them from Amazon for $153.
