A good 8-hour sleep is responsible for our well-being throughout the day and our overall health. It's good to ventilate the room, put your smartphone away, buy an orthopedic mattress and blackout curtains - everyone is familiar with these rules. But there are also special devices and gadgets whose manufacturers promise to make sleep even better. How necessary are they and which ones are really worth buying? The beautyhack.ru team shares their experience of using a pillow that adjusts to your physique, a smart alarm clock with an imitation of dawn and a banal sleep mask that, as it turned out, can work wonders.
Alarm clock Philips Wake-up Light HF3520
The main task: to simulate sunrise and sunset, helping the body to wake up and fall asleep as naturally as possible.

There are many options for light alarms. My husband and I bought a gadget from Philips spontaneously, just fell for its pleasant appearance. It has the following features: simulation of sunrise and sunset, nature sounds, radio and clock. Lighting effects are the main value of the alarm clock, which the manufacturer himself emphasizes. I didn't like this story at all. When you wake up in the winter at 7:00 am in total darkness, the artificial light from the alarm clock is just annoying. I understand that this is an individual question, but we very quickly turned off this function and use the device like an ordinary (albeit very beautiful) clock and alarm clock. If you want, you can experiment with the volume and brightness. If you are not annoyed by the light in the room, then the device may like it: thanks to the slowly increasing melody, getting out of bed will be much easier.
Beauty Sleep Pillow
The main task: outwardly, the pillow resembles a dense roller with a depression for the face. It does not change shape during use, does not bend, but adapts to the characteristics of the physique. The difference in height between the rollers of the neck and forehead is necessary to fix the position of the body and reduce swelling. Comfortable fixation and the correct angle of inclination of the body in relation to the pillow promises to relieve back pain and a feeling of fatigue in the collar zone.

Even if in the evening you drank a few glasses of wine, a lot of water, had a late dinner, after sleeping on Beauty Sleep, there will be no swelling and creases. I even began to notice that the face looks better after sleep - on skin prone to oily, this is especially noticeable.
But it will be difficult to get used to it for those who like to sleep on two or three pillows. I myself have still not been able to completely switch to it - it is more difficult to fall asleep on Beauty Sleep, I want to put something else on. But the pillow is super comfortable to the touch - it has a very nice pillowcase that you can take off and wash.
All in all a great thing! I want to buy the same for my husband and give it to my mother.
Arina Zarudko, reader of BeautyHack
The pillow is the most comfortable and wonderful thing that happened in my life! I expected it to be too stiff (like most orthopedic pillows), but no - it is moderately soft, moderately hard - the golden mean. I liked that there is a small indentation in the center - extremely convenient for the head and neck. It adjusts to the position of the head, the face is not deformed, therefore, the skin is less swollen in the morning!
And the edema is really less. I even deliberately alternated sleeping on a regular pillow and on a Beauty Sleep to compare the results. Puffiness is definitely less noticeable. But the main plus for me is that my neck does not hurt in the morning.
Sleep mask Hedonism Girls
The main task: restricts the flow of light - so the body more actively produces melatonin during sleep.

This mask has no built-in sensors and is not made of high-tech material - only velvet and silk, which are incredibly pleasant to touch. I never took the idea of sleeping with a mask in front of my eyes seriously, and, in principle, did not pay attention to my sleep. Until I accidentally fell asleep with a children's mask from Zara Home - pink, fluffy, with ears and eyes (what, probably, it was a sight from the side). But what a night it was! Without dreams and constant overturns, in almost complete darkness, I seemed to be asleep for 15 minutes and woke up with a feeling of complete zero.
Then I realized that it was not a matter of taking an accessory from a child and ordered my own, an adult, who deserves any investment. Now, when I am very tired, I put on a mask and plunge into a deep sleep. In general, I like that face masks are becoming a trend story - there are many local and not only manufacturers from whom you can buy real masterpieces. Besides the Hedonism Girls mentioned above, I love the satin mask from Elena Krygina's store with her signature illustrations.
