This Works Deep Sleep Pillow Spray
Recently, Filter UK contributor Jane Hoskyn evaluated popular sleep remedies, including tart cherry juice and magnesium bath flakes. Among her top picks was this lavender-scented pillow spray, which effectively calmed her "racing mind" and transformed her pillow into "a place of peace rather than insomniac dread." Originally priced at $33, it is now available for $24.75 at Dermstore with the discount code 'REFRESH'.
Helix Dusk Mattress
"You spend a third of your life laying down, so a bad mattress can aggravate [injuries] or create new ones," emphasized one of our sleep experts. For those in the market for a new mattress, Drew Ackerman, creator and host of the Sleep With Me podcast, recommends this foam mattress for achieving a quality night's rest. Designed with Helix's dynamic foam that contours to the body, this mattress is currently on sale for 25% off, reduced from $1,332 to $999.
Hatch Restore 3 Sunrise Alarm Clock
Hatch's Restore 3 has been repeatedly recommended by our experts for combating seasonal affective disorder and enhancing sleep quality. This sunrise alarm clock represents a significant upgrade from basic models, doubling as a sound machine that plays soothing noises such as a lake breeze, ocean waves, and a bubbling creek. Originally $169.99, it is now priced at $144.99 on Amazon.
Ozlo Sleep Buds
Whether dealing with noisy neighbors or a partner's snores, investing in a pair of earbuds can be transformative. Sleep psychologist Aric Prather personally uses these Ozlo sleep buds, which feature an in-ear alarm clock and biometric sensors. Originally $349, they are now available for $274 on Amazon.
IKEA Valevåg Pocket Spring Mattress
Described by our UK colleagues as "a bed-in-a-box bargain," this budget-friendly mattress is praised for its breathability, cooling effect, and affordability. Lightweight and now $70 off, it is reduced from $349 to $279 at Ikea.
Coop Original Adjustable Pillow
Kori Perten, a contributor for the Filter US, purchased Coop's cult-favorite pillow nearly five years ago and remains a loyal advocate. After testing three other popular pillow brands, she consistently returned to this one, describing it as "flat but not too flat, soft but not overly squishy." Originally $89, it is now priced at $71.20 at Coop.
Piglet in Bed Linen Pillow Case
When the Filter UK consulted interior designers for their favorite bedding brands, Piglet in Bed's trendy designs were frequently mentioned. Their products are OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified, ensuring they are free from over 1,000 harmful substances, including lead and Pfas. These stylish pillow cases, crafted from 100% linen and available in elegant patterns like Botanical Green Gingham, are now 60% off, reduced from $99 to $39 for a set of two.
Drowsy Sleep Mask
While Filter US readers highly regard the Mzoo sleep mask, contributor Juno DeMelo recommends this luxuriously silky alternative, which she credits with helping her "sleep past 8am for the first time in years." Originally $79, it is now available for $59 at Drowsy.
The Oodie Weighted Blanket
After testing various models, the Filter UK endorsed this weighted blanket from the Oodie for its "silky fleece fabric," extensive color selection, and portability. Described as the "warmest sofa snuggler," it is now $119.25, down from $159.
Bed Threads Tumeric Linen Duvet Cover
Bedding need not be as plain as a hotel room's beige color scheme. To revitalize your bedroom, consider this linen duvet cover from Bed Threads, recommended in our colleagues' roundup of the best bedding brands. Interior designer Jessica Horton praised its "pure linen bedding in gorgeous, rich shades, giving that lived-in luxury feel that only gets softer over time." Originally $270, it is now $81.
Bedsure Gentlesoft Bubble Faux Fur Blanket
Following the viral success of the Lola Blanket, we sought affordable alternatives and identified this option from Bedsure as a worthy dupe. Crafted from a similar ultra-plush material, it is already one-third the price of the Lola Blanket, and the additional $18 discount makes it an even sweeter deal, now $51.99 instead of $69.99 at Wayfair.
Brooklinen Super Plush Turkish Cotton Bath Towels
If showering is part of your nighttime routine, enhance the experience with towels as soft as your favorite blanket. In our guide to the best bath towels, we recommended these from Brooklinen for their high-quality, dense material, stunning color selection, and "spa-like" feel. Originally $109 for a set of two, they are now $87.20.
Brooklinen Down Comforter
While Brooklinen's bath towels are exceptional, the brand is renowned for its bedding. Their down comforter, filled with high-grade certified Canadian down and featured in our wedding gift guide, is a standout. Originally retailing for nearly $300, it is now available for $239.20, offering nearly $60 in savings.
