Before we start, I would like to ask our readers, what are some of your common worries?

I believe that many of your answers will include "insomnia" and "hair loss". Besides physiological reasons, the two major reasons for these two worries are the stress and pressure of the current society, and poor lifestyle habits.

Sleep-related Stress

Regarding the issue of sleep-related stress, many of you may have this experience:

Having trouble sleeping at night and waking up in the morning, and no matter how many hours of sleep you had, you wake up feeling very groggy. You sleep very lightly, and unsteadily, and wake up very easily, etc.

It is really painful. The long-term sleep-related stress will affect the everyday work and school you have during the day, and it will also be harmful to your health in the long run.

Getting a Good Night's Sleep

If you want to improve the quality of sleep at night, besides putting down your mobile phone and computer before going to bed, you can also try to use the following sleeping aids to alleviate this problem from multiple approaches. We have prepared 8 good sleeping aids that you will not want to miss out!

 

FANCL Sleep Support 4g*10 (About 10 Days)

Our first recommendation is the fast sleep support tablet from FANCL. It is not a sleeping pill and will not have any side effects or dependence issues. Free from additives, it uses pure plant extracts to supplement GABA amino acids that are lacking in the human body, adjust it to normal levels, improving sleep, and allowing you to sleep deeper.

At the same time, it promotes metabolism, repairs and restores body tissues, and makes you wake up feeling refreshed.

FINE Japan Glycine Premium Lemon Flavored GABA Theanine Tryptophan 30 Packets

The second product is a product from the Fine Glycine series that has also won the Monde Selection Gold Award and is very popular in Japan.

Its main ingredients are glycine, L-theanine and GABA, which can promote relaxation and eliminate nervous tension, fundamentally calm nerves, improve insomnia and sleep disorders, promote deep sleep, and make it easy to fall asleep.

It is also helpful to girls who are on a diet. It has few calories, no sugar, a fresh lemon flavor and is individually packaged and easy to carry.

Spirit of Ayura, Natural Spray 0.7oz/20ml

In addition to the support of orally administered products, it is also important to create a pleasant surrounding for sleep. Thus, we recommend this spray from Ayura.

It has a soft and elegant fragrance and can be used anytime, especially when feeling tired or relaxing before going to bed.

Take a deep breath after use, and slowly inhale and exhale, allowing the aroma to gradually permeate the body and mind. It has a calming and peaceful effect, that makes you feel comfortable.

KAO-MegRhythm Steam Eye Mask

I believe everyone is familiar with the Kao-MegRhythm Steam Eye Mask. It is is very popular in Asia, even among many celebrities. It is also thoughtfully designed with a variety of fragrances to choose from, which can be used by men, women and children, especially for those who are tired due to excessive eye use.

After opening the eye mask, it can slowly generate heat and continuously maintain the soothing eye skin temperature of 40°C. Quietly close your eyes and relax, the comfortable and warm feeling allows you to relieve tension and fatigue, which can last for 10 minutes. You may use before bed to help improve insomnia.

Saborino Night Masks

If you are too tired upon reaching home after working overtime and feel that using a cream is too troublesome before going to bed, and that it is best to finish it all in one minute and fall asleep, then don’t miss out these BCL night masks from Saborino:

• Goodnight Mask (Chamomile)
• OtonaPlus Brightening Night Mask
• OtonaPlus Plumping Night Mask

One sheet contains 5 skincare steps for your nighttime routine, which you can use and sleep immediately after, allowing you to enjoy skin care even while having a busy life. Containing multiple botanical extracts, that is both moisturizing and soothing the skin, allowing you to enjoy comfort before going to bed.

MUHI Exodus Ibikisuto Sleep Labo 25g

If you are also troubled by snoring, then these two products are definitely tailor-made for you, suitable for personal use or for a partner.

The first is the anti-snoring spray from MUHI, made of natural plant ingredients and three natural vegetable oils, which effectively and directly act on the local tissues that cause noise. It relieves the vibration of throat tissue caused during breathing and maintains a smooth flow of air through the nose.

It is good for sleep, keeps the throat deeply moistened throughout the night and is a simple spray that is easy to carry around.

KOBAYASHI Pharmaceutical Nightmin Nasal Breathing Tape Aroma Lavender Fragrance

Unlike MUHI's anti-snoring spray, Kobayashi Pharmaceutical brings anti-snoring tapes. It adjusts breathing through physical means and corrects mouth breathing to nasal breathing, simply by sticking it on your mouth before going to bed.

It is very convenient to use, easily improves sleep, allowing you to say goodbye to snoring. At the same time, it is added with lavender essence for a better sleep effect.

It has a mild adhesive in which you can peel off without hurting the skin, allowing you to use it with a peace of mind.

KINCHO Dust Mite Repellent for Bedding (up to 180 days Long-lasting) (2 pieces)

We should also improve our bedding as well. It is easy for our bed sheets and quilt covers to breed mites, causing skin itching and other problems which seriously affects our sleep quality, so it is also very important to choose a safe mite removal product.

We recommend this dust mite repellent from KINCHO, which uses eucalyptus leaf essential oil to safely remove mites. It has a smell that is harmless to the human body but is poisonous to mites. It is supplemented with green tea extract and other plant ingredients to make a mite removal bag, which can help sleep as well.

It is simple to use, just placing it down will remove mites 24 hours a day.

That’s all we have to share about sleeping aids. If you face any sleeping issues, do try some of these products to improve your quality of sleep!
