8p-a-Day Pillow Mist Trick Helps You Sleep Through Heatwave
8p-a-Day Pillow Mist Trick for Heatwave Sleep

A sleep writer has shared an 8p-a-day trick to fall asleep quickly during the current heatwave, using NEOM's Perfect Night's Sleep Pillow Mist. The product, a blend of lavender, chamomile, and patchouli essential oils, costs £22.50 per bottle when bought as a duo from QVC, currently on sale for £45 down from £52. The writer claims two to three spritzes fill the room with fragrance, with a 100ml bottle lasting nine to 10 months.

How the Pillow Mist Works

The writer sprays the mist onto her pillow and around the bedroom a few minutes before sleep, or while reading in bed. She notes that it helps signal to the brain that it is time to switch off, creating a calming bedtime ritual. The 12 essential oils are designed to help relax and unwind, even in high temperatures.

Customer Reviews and Alternatives

The product has garnered positive reviews on QVC and NEOM's website. One happy shopper said: "From the first night I used it, I fell asleep very soon after putting my head on the pillow and deep breathing. I cannot be without this now." Another added: "I never thought this could work, but it does. You feel relaxed when you lie your head on your pillow and the magic begins." However, some found it less effective, with one reviewer stating: "It was not as effective as I hoped it would be."

Alternatives include Jo Malone London's Moonlit Camomile Pillow Mist (£38) and M&S's Apothecary Sleep Pillow (£8), which has nearly 100 five-star reviews.

Cost-Effectiveness

The writer calculates that the 100ml bottle works out to about 8p per day, making it an affordable luxury. The QVC duo deal includes a 100ml and 30ml bottle, effectively giving the travel size for free compared to the £49 price of a single 100ml bottle on NEOM's website.
