Tired of counting sheep? This combination of melatonin and essential oils aims to help soothe frazzled nerves and ease you into a deep, restorative sleep.
Why is this a good deal? 💰
This spray rarely stays in stock long at Amazon (let alone on sale). With this deal, you can score each bottle in the three-pack for just under $6 a piece. They make great stress-relieving gifts for all your fellow sleep lovers too!
Why do I need this? 🤔
Dr. Teal's Sleep Spray contains melatonin, a hormone your body produces in response to darkness, which helps regulate your sleep-wake cycle and can be used as a supplement to help you conk out at night, according to Johns Hopkins Medicine. The spray also contains scents of lavender and chamomile, both of which have been shown to improve sleep quality.
What reviewers say 💬
It's important to point out that research has been done only on melatonin that people ingest (drink or swallow), not receive olfactorily (via their nose). But an army of Amazon shoppers swear by this spray.
Pros 👍
According to one slumberjack: "A couple of sprays and I drifted off to sleep without tossing and turning! Was meaning to only take a one-hour power nap, but it turned out to be a three-hour nap! I'm not complaining about it. ... I know I will sleep good tonight!"
"This really helped myself and my children get good rest," another shopper shared. "After dinner and baths, I sprayed the beds and pillows right before bed and my children were asleep shortly after. I like that it's not very strong and my children had no issues with feeling groggy the next morning."
"I know melatonin doesn't work like a sleeping pill, but there's something about this that makes me go to sleep so easily," said a third fan. "And it just smells so great when I go into my room. I'm just inhaling deeply because it smells so wonderful, and the scent lingers. It even stays on my pajamas and I just smell so good. I love it. My husband is very sensitive to smells and he does not mind the smell of this."
Cons 👎
While most shoppers like the scent, a few reported the opposite. "So I'm not thrilled with the smell, but I do think it helps with relaxation," explained this four-star reviewer. "I mean the smell isn't horrible, but [it's] not something I would pick."
This reviewer cautions users that a little goes a long way. "I sprayed my entire flat sheet but not my pillows," they explained. "Well, I forgot the ceiling fan was on and it moved the mist over the entire bed area, including my pillows. ... I felt the spray on my lips, my face, my hands and it tingled. It took about an hour to dissipate so I can't say it helped me fall asleep quickly. Since then, I only do one spritz near the foot of my bed without the fan on, much better results."
This dermatologist-tested spray is cruelty-, paraben- and phthalate-free.
