The ambience of your bedroom is important when it comes to getting a good night's sleep so if you're struggling to catch some winks, these relaxing sleep sprays are worth a try
When it comes to getting a good night’s sleep, there are a couple of factors you need to get right. You need to make sure your room is at an ideal temperature, that you are dressed comfortably, maintain a consistent routine and keep electronics out of the room (as far as possible).
But did you know that the scent of your room and bedding can also influence how well you sleep?

True enough, many essential oils tend to help you relax, release stress and this can eventually promote better overall sleep and help you calm down if you tend to get anxious before bed.
This World Sleep Day, we take a look at some of the best sleep sprays you can find in Singapore that may help lull you to sleep.
1. Sova’s Lullaby Spray
Sova (which actually means ‘sleep’ in Swedish) is a local company that was created during Singapore’s circuit breaker period in 2020. Noticing the increase in stress from the pandemic, founder Gidania Wong decided that she wanted to help Singaporeans by revolutionising the idea of beauty sleep and self-care.
As a result, she launched a series of sleep and self-care items such as pillowcases, eye masks, hair accessories and more all made with mulberry silk—which is the highest quality silk available.
Sova recently added to their lineup of products a sleep scent that was produced in collaboration with local artisanal perfumery, Six.
Called Lullaby, the scent features chrysanthemum and bergamot to aid better sleep.

If you have sensitive skin, you might not want a sleep spray that may cause irritation. However, that doesn’t mean you have to give up these sprays entirely. Rather, a good and strong room spray will typically give you similar results.
If you are looking for a relaxing room spray for nighttime, try Hush’s Calming Essential Oil Room Spray which contains lavender, bergamot and ylang ylang for a soothing and grounding scent.
