The Best Sleep Helpers Ever? ft. Feather + Down

I have always had problems trying to sleep and with my sleep pattern, even as a very young child! Thankfully over the years I've found ways to help such as not using my phone before bed, breathing meditation and bubble baths but I still struggle sometimes, in comes the wonderful Feather and Down to the rescue *imagine superhero music*.

Feather and Down is a UK based brand focusing on sleep helpers including bath, body and home fragrance products as well as gift sets that would make ideal self care gifts this Christmas! I was very kindly sent a few of their products to try out and they are the best sleep and relaxation products I've ever tried (and I've tried quite a few).

*Feather & Down Melting Shower Cream (£6, 250ml)

Let's start with one of the most unique products of the three that I was sent a couple of weeks ago. I've tried pillow mists and pulse point gels but a shower cream with the aim of helping you relax, calm your mind and look after your skin is something new to me!

I adore the packaging of all three products and the scent is heavenly! Sometimes sleep and relaxation focused products can have a very sweet, artificial lavender scent but this one is so musky, floral and relaxing, it's my perfect calming lavender scent. The shower cream also contains so many wonderful ingredients such as sunflower oil and lavender herb oil. The texture is lovely, it's so creamy and leaves the skin feeling smooth, soft and lightly scented.

*Feather & Down All Purpose Sleep Balm (£7, 16g)

Next up is my least used product but I still love it! It's a pulse point balm with vitamin E, coconut oil, cocoa seed butter and essentials oils - their products are free from parabens, sulphates and mineral oils. As with both of the other products, it has an incredibly calming and relaxing scent and it doesn't feel greasy or oily on the skin as some balms can but the only thing I'm not a massive fan of is the packaging as I think it would be quicker and easier to use if it was in a stick or roll on container; however that's just my opinion and it's still well worth trying especially if like me, you struggle to relax and switch off your mind before bed.

*Feather & Down Pillow Mist (£7, 100ml)

Last but definitely not least is my favourite product of the three, although it's a very difficult choice as they're all lovely. I have been using the This Works pillow mist that I received a while ago and I do like it but I definitely prefer this one as I think the scent is a little more longer lasting and I prefer the scent, if I'm honest.

The pillow mist contains calming lavender and chamomile essential oils to help you relax and to calm an anxious mind. It's so quick and easy to use and it's instantly calming even with just a spray or two, although I've been using loads of it each time as I love it so much! It has definitely been helping me sleep better and for longer as well because I'm more relaxed and can drift off quicker so it's worth checking out - it's out of stock as I'm publishing this post but hopefully it will be back in stock soon.

Have you tried any of these products?
