Man do we love a solid eight. Hours with our eyes shut, our head nestled atop a feather pillow, that is. It’s always the most relaxing and sometimes, even, the very best part of our day, well, night if we’re going to be exact. Particularly when we’ve spritzed the said feather pillow with The Body Shop’s Sleep Calming Pillow Mist.

Sure, we know this may read as being corny, but misting our pillow before crawling between the sheets has been a game changer. For real. Enriched with 100 per cent natural and aromatic essential oils, lavender and vetiver, the mist’s soothing and mind-easing properties vanquish the day’s stress and leave us feeling peaceful and ready for some deep zzzzs. It’s formulation is vegan certified too and crafted from 90 per cent natural-origin ingredients, so we know that we’re breathing in a little extra calm crafted from properties that will only have a positive impact on our physical and mental health.

As for the nights when we really need some extra Zen, we dip into the do-good, feel-good brand’s Sleep Bedtime Balm ($18), Sleep Balmy Butter Cream ($34), Sleep Relaxing Hair and Body Wash ($19) and Sleep Essential Oil Blend ($26) before we begin our pillow-misting routine. Because when we use the entire Sleep lineup in one fell swoop, we know we’ll be out for the count before we can even say good night.

The Body Shop Sleep Calming Pillow Mist, $18 for 100ml, available at The Body Shop stores and online at www.thebodyshop.ca.
