7 Simple Heatwave Hacks To Help You Sleep When It’s Scorching
With the hot weather officially here to stay, you’ve probably also been frantically Googling ‘heatwave hacks’, desperately trying to find the top tips to cool down. While it’s all well and good finding ways to hydrate your skin and keeping your makeup from sliding down your face during the height of daytime heat, there’s something worse about suffering in the dead of night, tossing and turning trying to get to some shut-eye.
So, we’ve pulled together a list of heatwave hacks specifically to help you kip. You’ve probably already seen everything from freezing your t-shirt before bed to sleeping in wet socks doing the round on social media – but we’ve taken a different approach. Pleasingly, you can cool down long before you rest your head on the pillow to achieve a restful (not restless) night of sleep. Keep reading to find out my tips and tricks for cooling down to sleep soundly in the hot weather.
My favourite products to hack the heatwave:
NEOM Wellbeing Super Shower Power Body Cleanser
Dr Jart+ Cryo Rubber™ with Moisturising Hyaluronic Acid
SKIP TO:
1. Shower before bed
It’s an obvious one, but if you’re a morning shower person, you might want to consider switching to the evening – or taking two showers a day if that suits. This will do some of the work in terms of cooling you down, but picking the right products can further turn your cold shower into an ice bath experience from the comfort of your own home.
Reach for Neom Wellbeing Super Shower Power Body Cleanser: with an invigorating mix of spearmint, rosemary and eucalyptus that will leave you tingly and fresh. I also love Rituals The Ritual of Karma After Sun Ice Shower Gel, which gets cooler the longer you wait before rinsing it off.
