Fab Find of the Week: Balance Me Sleep Hyaluronic Mist

Launched at the same time as Balance Me had a FAB redesign a couple of months back, this is something a little different on the sleep-beckoning front. It’s a mist, yes – but for skin, not your pillow. The idea is to spritz it onto your décolletage, where the essential oils of lavender, vetiver, chamomile, cedarwood and rose geranium can waft nose-wards, completely delighting your senses and helping to induce a sense of calm.

But it’s also a skincare product – for an area that is oft-overlooked and also very vulnerable to environmental damage, because it’s so often on show in the ‘V’ of our necklines. (OK, maybe not right now in January – but for much of the year.)

Balance Me Sleep Hyaluronic Mist has great ‘slip’ and is easy to massage in. Only now when we come to write this up do we discover that we should have been spraying it onto the palms of hands, inhaling and pressing onto the neck; instead, we’ve been spritzing directly onto skin – and that works really well.

The spritz also offers moisture-attracting glycerine, chicory – which delivers what Balance Me accurately describe as ‘a super-smooth velveteen feel’, hemp seed extract (proven to alleviate sleeplessness that is linked with anxiety), plus calming valerian and St. John’s Wort.

A veritable double delight, in fact, delivering – in our experience – a deeper and more restful sleep experience, AND looking after our décolletages.
