1. A cooling mattress pad reviewers rave about because it's truly awful to get ready for bed and then lie there, unable to sleep because you're too hot. This'll set you up for sleep success.
Promising review: "Unbeknownst to me, my wife decided to replace our mattress with the hardest slab of concrete on which I've ever had to sleep. I ordered this cover hoping for a tiny bit of relief. From the first night it exceeded all my hopes and dreams, I was able to sleep again, it doesn't slip off even with my tossing and turning, and it stays cool. This mattress cover probably saved my marriage. Thank you!" —michael ervin
Get it from Amazon for $28.82+ (available in sizes Twin–California King).
2. Plus, a set of satin pillowcases (that I own and can vouch have a soothing, cooling effect). But! These'll stick around in your bedding mix during cold weather, too, because satin doesn't suck moisture from your hair and skin like cotton pillowcases do.
3. Or a specifically designed set of two cooling pillowcases made with Japanese cooling fibers to help absorb your body heat while you sleep.
Promising review: "Finally found pillows that are worth every penny!!! I am buying more ASAP! I have a sweating problem and also have my bedroom on the third floor of my home so the heat rises, which doesn’t help my hot flashes at all! I have a hard time finding a pillowcase that isn’t sticky feeling, too hot to lay on, etc. I really appreciate that there is a zipper on one end of each pillowcase to zip up your pillow to help your pillow inside from slipping or falling out! These pillowcases are cool to the touch, super soft, and they are super comfortable to lay on, to the point I woke up with drool all over my face from my remarkable amount of great sleep I had! This pillowcase doesn’t get that overwhelming warm sticky feeling after laying on it for a while. It stays comfortable to lay on all through the night! I’m incredibly happy and grateful to finally find pillowcases that are exactly what anyone with sweating issues and hot flashes need and want in pillowcases." —CosmeticatedReviews
Get them from Amazon for $15.95+ (available in standard, queen, and king sizes and in 20 colors).
4. A pack of clinical-strength SweatBlock wipes could come in handy for hyperhidrosis, nervous sweating, and hormonal sweating any time of the year. But if summer really makes all that rear its ugly head, it's worth a try. You can apply it to your pits for bed, and it's made to work for up to seven days.
This stuff is STRONG so make sure you do a spot test first — especially if you have sensitive skin.
Promising review: "For anyone who might be skeptical, please allow me to put you at ease. If you have hyperhidrosis, meaning it can be 9 degrees outside and you're still sweating under your arms, this product has the potential to change your life. I would sweat THROUGH a sport coat before noon. Enter the Sweat Block product. I've had it for three weeks and it is life changing. I DO NOT sweat under my arms anymore. I'm still on the original box that I bought three weeks ago. I had to write a review after I was cleaning the garage today in 85-degree heat. I was sweating through my shirt on my back — BUT NOT MY UNDERARMS. It is amazing!" —Frosty McGee
Get a pack of eight from Amazon for $19.99.
5. A sleeveless linen PJ set that'll give you plenty of air circulation *and* movement in case you like to starfish on your bed. It's also nice enough looking to wear around the house and answer a random Facetime from your cousin.
Get them from our Goodful Shop for $79 (available in sizes XS–XL and nine colors; and also in a short-sleeve version and long-sleeve version).
6. An ultra-fine continuous water mister will refresh your hair in the morning after you've slept on it. Let's keep that air-dry style looking fresh instead of using more time, water, and hair products on a whole wash!
Promising review: "Used for wetting my 2-year-old's hair. Could have used it for crafts, could have used it for misting plants, so many things. It’s super durable, I know because she dropped it a million times. You don’t need to refill it every day, it doesn’t use a lot of water in each spritz but it does feel like it. Incredibly smooth. Would buy again (and I will because I left it at my sister's while traveling)." —Savannah
Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in four sizes).
7. An oscillating tower fan to help the air flow without REALLY jacking up your energy bill. It's a bladeless fan that works quietly with six speed options and a remote you can park on your nightstand in case you get a little too cold at night (what a great problem to have).
Promising review: "GO BUY THIS NOWWWWW!!! My room has been hot for over FIVE months now with no AC. Especially now with summer, I almost feel like I want to pass out. I’m so glad I got this. It’s been two hours now since we got it in the mail and our room has completely turned around from hot to freezing cold. I can’t believe I’m saying this. I have purchased over three fans the past few months and this one tops it all." —Inca
Get it from Amazon for $89.99 (also available in a smart Wi-Fi version).
8. Plus, a battery-operated flexible rotating fan that lots of reviewers use on strollers to keep babies cool. But! It would be great to wrap around your bed frame on your side if you're the hot sleeper and your partner isn't.
Promising review: "We live in Florida and realized how badly we needed a fan for our newborn. We use it pretty much on a daily basis. We put it on her car seat and on her stroller when we go on walks. I’ve even propped it up on our desk when I’m working and holding our daughter. The three speeds are great: low usually offers just enough of a cool down and high is very impressive because it’s fast and quiet. The lights we didn’t really need but has been a nice feature to have. Our daughter hates going in her car seat and this helps to distract her sometimes. Plus, since we live in Florida we have to wait to go on walks until later in the day and the light lets us be seen easier. Overall, it’s a great and I’d definitely recommend!" —EmLe
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in three colors).
9. A set of two cooling pillows that are hotel quality. I'm a hot sleeper and swear by these year-round. They're also INCREDIBLY comfy and supportive thanks to the gel fiber filling.
Promising review: "These had great reviews but I was still a bit skeptical. I'm a bit of a pillow snob. I usually require about three pillows for just myself, not including my husband. I like to sleep propped up a bit so my sinuses don't get stopped up at night. My old pillows would require three to nine adjustments a night for me to be comfortable again. These pillows — these amazing, heavenly pillows — are now my favorite part of going to bed. Soft but firm. How does that work? It gives support for me to sleep slightly propped up but I sink into this comfortable personal cloud. Soft, but firm. My head isn't sinking through the pillow to rest on my mattress, but I feel comfortably enveloped. Now mind you, I have one very cheap Walmart pillow behind it so I'm not against my headboard, but even still. Heaven. I bought two but think that would be too much fluff so now my husband and I each have one. Buy them. Add to cart. Buy now with one click. Stop the research. You've found the pillows you were looking for." —Marissa Urey
Get a set of two from Amazon for $61.37+ (available in queen and king sizes).
10. Or if you're feeling a bit splurgy, a cooling pillow filled with a super squishy foam that'll provide a super cool sleep surface for at least 12 hours.
My colleague Heather Braga just started using this: "I'm personally always hot even with my air conditioning on full blast, so I was thrilled to put this cooling pillow to the test. Right out of the box it felt cool to the touch. It's very plush and squishy (my son really enjoyed jumping onto it haha). It seems to mold to my head — it's extremely comfortably. Most importantly it somehow STAYS that cold at all times. It really is fabulous!"
Get it from Amazon for $149+ (available in two sizes).
11. A set of cooling bed sheets that'll keep you from waking up all hot and sweaty. They feel super pricey but, thank goodness, aren't!
Promising review: "I am a very hot sleeper therefore, I am very picky about my sheets. These sheets are very comfortable and do not make me hot. They are soft and very comfortable. Also, the company is great to work with! Excellent customer service! When my sheets arrived, there was a small problem with the fitted sheet so I emailed them (the sheets came with a flier with their contact info) and they sent me another fitted sheet right away. They said they are a family owned business and really want the customer to have a great experience. I was impressed with that level of service especially in this day and age! Bottom line: great sheets, excellent customer service and great price! Do not hesitate to buy!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in twin–split king sizes and 45 colors).
12. Or if you've got a DEEP mattress, some ultra-soft deep pocket fitted sheets made to be super breathable.
Promising reviews: "We have slept on these sheets for a week. My husband has night sweats. He no longer wakes up soaking wet with these sheets. They are amazingly soft. They are so soft that my leggings get twisted with these more than my other sheets we’ve had previously...and that is good, because it’s a testament to the softness. I have a tendency to not make my bed, and our animals sleep on our blankets. They haven’t even wrinkled :) My husband says these are the best sheets he’s slept on in his life, and he grew up with a mom that always bought the expensive 'good' stuff. I highly recommend these. Bonus: Amazing price!" —Bunn Family
Get them from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in sizes twin–California king and 26 colors).
13. Or suspenders for your sheets if you already have a set of cooling sheets you like, but the issue is that the fitted sheet won't stay put on your mattress, and you end up in a sheet burrito. These are exactly how they sound, so no matter how much you toss and turn, your fitted sheet comes loose in the middle of the night.
14. A linen bedding bundle so you can fully realize your fancy home self while keeping your cool. You don't have to sleep hot to love these, but that'll make you love them even more!
Piglet's signature fabric is made from 100% natural stonewashed French flax that gets softer and softer with wear. The linens are prewashed for softness and won't shrink. The fabric is warm and cozy in the winter and fresh and cool in the warmer months. This bundle includes a natural linen duvet cover, pair of colorful pillowcases, pair of white pillowcases, white flat sheet, and white fitted sheet.
Get it from Piglet for $363+ (available in 14 colors).
15. A temperature-regulating 100% cotton blanket that'll keep the air flowing while you dream about Pedro Pascal.
Muslin Comfort is a woman-owned small business based in California.
Promising review: "I always run hot. My sleep can be very erratic due to the night sweats. So far this has helped reduce the times of waking up drenched. It was worth the money!!" —Jammie R.
Get it from Muslin Comfort for $199.99+ (available in oversized Twin–oversized King and in six colors).
16. Sweat-wicking pajamas made of viscose and spandex because, well, those Old Navy PJ pants from middle school that are still kicking are perf for cold weather, but you need something more breathable during summer months. Oh, and the waist is elastic!
Promising review: "I'm a chronic night sweater living in a really hot New York City apartment — I'm so glad I invested in these. They are really soft and while I still have to kick off the sheets few times throughout the night (as usual), I feel much cooler than normal, and I stayed dry! I really am able to sleep much better." —Vanessa
Get them from Amazon for $25.83+ (available in sizes S–4XL and 12 colors).
17. A cooling body spray as a welcome relief before bed or if you wake up in the middle of the night feeling toasty.
It's made with pure essential oils, water, and witch hazel.
Rooted Earth is a Maine-based small biz established in 2013 that specializes in small batch skin care and herbal apothecary goods.
Promising review: "This spray is so lovely and refreshing! It smells fantastic, seems to be genuinely very high quality and helps so much with cooling off (I run hot and find heat stressful). The packaging was also adorable and handmade, which made me feel like a valued customer :)." —April Wilson
Get it from Rooted Earth on Etsy for $8.99+ (available in three sizes).
18. A Sheex x Brrr° silky sleep mask that comes equipped with quick-drying, sweat-wicking, mineral-infused fabric that'll feel great on your face *and* block out light to help aid in falling asleep faster and staying asleep longer.
Sheex is a woman-owned small business from Michelle Marciniak and Susan Walvius — former University of South Carolina basketball coaches who set out to make bedding as comfortable as their favorite performance fabrics.
Promising review: "I’m one of those who rarely reviews things, and when I received this in the mail I legitimately thought I was scammed out of $30. It looks like nothing, just your average silky eye mask. I put it on and it certainly didn’t feel like anything special. Ha, I ate those words. I don’t know what kind of black magic they’re using in the manufacturing process (especially with these supply chain issues), but I actually can’t be without it now. It fully covers my eyes in the lightest, most comfortable way, and it doesn’t feel restrictive at all. Over the long Thanksgiving weekend, there were three nights in a row that I slept 9+ HOURS !!! I mean, this is not a drill. My husband thought something was wrong with me. Bottom line, I’m getting some of the best sleep I’ve gotten since before the pandemic. Do your battle-tattered body a favor and get one of these." —Ruth
Get it from Sheex for $28 (available in three colors).
19. A set of wickaway sweatbands really made for workouts but'll help keep your sweaty hair out of your face as you get some Zzzzzs.
Promising review: "I wasn't certain if these would work for me or not. Since they aren't cotton, they're spandex, I thought they'd slip easily. You know what? They didn't. They not only didn't slip, but I love the colors. I love them so much I'm going to purchase the same style headbands from them but in different colors!" —Teresa T
Get a set of 10 from Amazon for $13.99.
20. A ~streamlined~ door draft stopper that'll keep your precious AC working for *just* your bedroom. Plus, it'll blend in with your door.
Promising review: "So easy to set up! All you do is peel tape and adhere to a CLEAN and DRY door. Also looks great, I don't even notice it. I had a huge gap under my door. I could smell and hear everything from the hallway. Smells, drafts, and sound all are less of an issue now." —Brit B.
Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in four colors).
21. And if the top and sides of your door seem to be letting precious cool air escape, an insulating strip involves basically a foolproof installation. It just sticks!
It *also* keeps cool air in your room!
Promising review: "Product works really well! I needed a quick fix to my home office situation, I live in an apartment in Manhattan and never noticed how much sound comes in and out, until I had to be on conference calls working from home! This little tape made a big difference, took me a couple of minutes to install." —Sandra Revueltas
Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in four colors).
22. A calming weighted blanket if worrying about the heat it could add has kept you away from them thus far. This one comes with two covers — fleece and one made with CoolMax Microfiber technology. Here's to being relaxed without waking yourself up from overheating.
Promising review: "This blanket is wonderful! I was always curious to try a weighted blanket but was skeptical if they actually worked. After reading reviews, I thought I'd give it a try. I am so glad I did. I was having a hard time falling asleep and staying asleep. After receiving this blanket, my sleep has improved dramatically and I stay asleep most of the night. I like the option of having the cooling duvet and the warmer one. I am a hot sleeper so I stick with the cool one. The only downside to the blanket is changing the duvets you have to tie countless pieces together for it to stay in place but other than that this blanket is sooo worth it!!" —Emma
Get it from Amazon for $35.99+ (available in 14 sizes and six colors).
23. A customizable window unit A/C that'll look SO much chicer than any others you've seen in your sweaty life.
24. But if you're still feeling "ehh" about a weighted blanket, a temperature-regulating, cocoon-like sleep pod could be a great comfy option to help lull you to sleep with minimal fabric covering your body. I've tried it myself, and it's SOOOO stretchy.
Promising review: "The Sleep Pod is absolutely amazing. I am 41 and have had sleep maintenance insomnia for most of my life. If you don't know what that is I fall asleep fine but don't stay asleep. I'd wake up between four and eight times a night and sometimes only sleep two hrs and that'd be it. I have used the hug sleep for a week and have slept between seven and nine hours only waking up once. It's comfortable not too warm and the pressure it applies is comforting not restricting. I have recommended to everyone." —Amy Archambault
Get it from Sleep Pod for $69.99+ (available in sizes S–L).
25. A Purple mattress made with the brand's signature grid and other materials to dissipate heat and prevent building temps.
Promising review: "I love this mattress. It’s comfortable but doesn’t sleep hot like memory foam. It’s also bouncy — unlike memory foam — but without the springs." —Jessica M.
Get it from Purple for $1,495+ (available in seven sizes).
26. A dual zone comforter if you sleep hot but your bed partner doesn't. One half is toasty, and one half is comfy.
The tie duvet tabs on either side tell you side is which.
Promising review: "I’m always hot and my boyfriend is always cold so I thought I’d try this out after reading a lot of good reviews and now I’m here to add to that list. We just got ours yesterday, so last night was the first time using it and we both were very impressed! I usually wake up multiple times in the middle of the night sweating but I didn’t wake up once! 10/10 recommended for people who have different sleep temps than their significant other!" —Cassie Wheeler
Get it from Amazon for $129.99+ (available in two sizes and four colors).
27. An investment-worthy ChiliPAD sleep system if you've long been in pursuit of something that'll keep you the exact same temperature all night — especially if you'd like to sleep a different temp than your bed partner.
ChiliSLEEP was founded by Todd and Tara Youngblood.
Its includes a reversible hydro-powered mattress pad, thermal regulating control unit, and a remote to help you adjust without having to get up. It uses hydropower (water) and operates between 55–115°F (13-46°C)..
Promising review: "I was wary of this as it’s a bit pricey compared to other 'solutions' for being hot at night. Having said that, I don’t regret spending one penny of what it cost me. I now sleep and I never wake up hot which I was doing constantly before having this. My advice to any woman of a certain age who suffers at night with heat, or indeed anyone who is hotter at night, buy it and you won’t regret it!!" —Tracey
Get it from ChiliSLEEP for $649+ (available in half and full queen to California king sizes).
