Tried And Tested: 7 Sleep Products That Actually Work

To help you relax before bedtime, Tatler editors share their tried-and-tested products that have helped them fall—and stay—asleep.

Like most big cities, Hong Kong is heralded as a city that never sleeps—in fact, it's one of the most sleep-deprived cities in the world. But it doesn’t mean we should take lack of sleep as a fact of life—especially when it could lead to health issues such as weight gain, depression and heart diseases. The good news is, a few smart purchases could help set you up for some peaceful snoozing.

"My sleep aids are eye masks! I use the one from Slip made of silk, and sometimes I will combine it with the gel eye mask from Talika. I travel to opposite time zones a lot and I find that masks help to adjust. If I really need to sleep, I combine both eye masks and do guided mediation. It's like guaranteed sleep." — Kim Bui Kollar, Editor-in-Chief, Tatler Hong Kong

"A pregnant friend of mine recommended me this nighttime body oil and I never looked back. It hydrates my skin and relaxes my muscles (which are often over exercised) at the same time, plus I absolutely love the herbal scent." —Pearl Yan, Digital Projects Editor

"My nighttime skincare regimen is never complete without Lush’s Sleepy Body Lotion. Formulated with a blend of lavender oil and cocoa butter, this lotion not only keeps my skin moisturised and comfortable all night long (especially during the dry season), but also creates a calming ambiance for a good sleep with its lavender scent." —Helen Yu, Editorial Assistant

"I have used Bach's homeopathic remedies for the last ten years. I like the fact that it is all natural and that there is no component that would make me develop a dependency on it. All you need to do is put a few drops on your tongue and soon enough you will fall into a deep slumber. I have never felt any after effects such as grogginess when I wake up." —Natasha Tang, Social Media Editor

6. Nanotech Silk Eye Mask by Caternap

"Sure, you could use the standard eye mask that you got from your last flight, but why do that when you can use one that’s made of blissfully soft silk, that smells of soothing lavender and has your initials embroidered on it? Caternap’s silk eye masks not only block out light to help you get a proper night of undisturbed sleep, it’s a sweet touch of luxe to add to your evening and let’s be real—there really is no greater luxury than a good night’s sleep." —Coco Marett, Lifestyle Editor

"Since I started drinking the Glow powder, I've learned that health comes from within and the same goes to sleep. I drink this sleep powder when I feel dehydrated or restless (or both) in the evening—at least 30 minutes before bedtime." —Pearl Yan, Digital Projects Editor
