The product, which is touted for its ability to "stop the mind chatter," contains soporific lavender, along with mind-clearing rosemary oil, refreshing balsam fir oil and uplifting bergamot.

Sweet Dreams
Tata Harper Aromatic Bedtime Treatment, $60

As if you need another reason to surround yourself with sweet-smelling products before bed, here it is. One study recently found that being around positive smells while you sleep could influence whether you have a pleasurable dream or a nightmare. Pleasant odors evoked positive dreams, while the opposite was true for unpalatable scents. So, in addition to acting as a natural sedative, the scent of essential oils in this formula may also induce positive dreams. Talk about a win-win.

Silent Night
Lather Quiet Night Relaxing Balm, $9

No surprise here, but the main ingredient in this balm is, again, lavender. Most sleep aids swear by this agent to subdue anxiety, and for good reason. It's been speculated that the scent of lavender may have the ability to slow down the nervous system, giving you a calm sensation all throughout your body -- not just your mind.
