Best Products to keep you warm this winter
Create Ambience with Candlelight
Candles are a wonderful way to infuse your bedroom with a cozy ambiance, especially if you don't have the luxury of a crackling fireplace. They provide a warm, flickering light that creates a soothing and inviting atmosphere, perfect for relaxing after a long day. Additionally, many candles come in delightful scents that can enhance the sensory experience and contribute to a calming environment. From calming lavender to invigorating citrus, the right fragrance can help set the mood for relaxation or sleep. However, it's important to remember to extinguish your candles before you drift off to sleep to ensure safety and prevent any fire hazards.
Make Your Bed Warm & Inviting
Make your bed a cosy retreat from the winter cold and a warm place to dream about spring by adding extra layers. Mix and match blankets - there's no greater feeling than snuggling up under a soft, warm blanket on a cold winter's night - and top with a stylish throw that can double for extra warmth at night.
More Cushions
You can never have too many cushions and they're a great way of adding texture and introducing colour into a bedroom. So, add plenty of cushions and pillows, to sink into for comfort, lounging and of course, sleeping. A mattress topper will also add an additional warm layer.
A Warming Bath
Before heading to bed, treat yourself to a soothing, warm bath infused with your favorite fragrant bath oil. This indulgent ritual not only helps to relax your muscles and ease tension but also creates a tranquil environment that can enhance your overall sense of well-being. As the warm water envelops you, the aromatic bath oil releases its calming and rejuvenating scents, which can help to clear your mind and reduce stress. This sensory experience prepares your body and mind for a restful night’s sleep, making it easier to unwind and transition into a state of relaxation. Whether you choose a blend of lavender to promote calmness or a refreshing citrus scent to uplift your mood, this pre-bedtime ritual can turn your nightly routine into a cherished self-care moment.
Wrap up in a Warm Bathrobe
Wrap yourself in the softest, coziest robe, and instantly embrace a feeling of comfort and relaxation. The plush fabric of a high-quality robe not only provides a gentle, soothing touch against your skin but also acts as a warm cocoon, shielding you from the chill of the evening air.
As you slip into this luxurious garment, you create a personal haven of warmth and tranquility, setting the perfect tone for a restful night. Whether it’s freezing outside or just a bit chilly indoors, the enveloping softness of the robe ensures that you stay snug and content, helping to ease any lingering stress from the day. This comforting ritual not only enhances your bedtime routine but also prepares your body and mind for a deep, rejuvenating sleep. By investing in a robe that combines both comfort and quality, you turn an ordinary evening into a special, pampering experience, ensuring that you are ready for a great night’s rest no matter the weather.
Slip on the Cosiest of Bed Socks
According to a recent study, nearly half the population loses sleep because of feeling too cold in bed, especially in the early mornings. So, keep your feet warm at all times with the softest of bed socks as cold feet will spread the chill.
On-trend Hot Water Bottle
Never truly out of fashion, the hot water bottle is an ideal way to keep warm once in bed. Make sure it has its cover on to avoid scalding and also so that it won’t feel cold in the middle of the night. Not too difficult with the gorgeous covers on offer!
