DIY PILLOW SPRAY FOR A RESTFUL NIGHT’S SLEEP

If you’re having trouble getting a good night’s sleep, a DIY pillow spray might be just what you need. This simple homemade sleep spray features three soothing lavender essential oil blends designed to encourage relaxation and help you drift into a deep, restful slumber.

Winding down after a stressful day can feel impossible. Despite eating well, exercising, and taking care of ourselves, sleep is often the hardest part of maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

And in today’s fast-paced world, it’s easy to see why!

Creating a calming bedroom sanctuary is more important than ever for restful sleep. Along with healthy sleep habits, natural remedies like aromatherapy can help set the stage for a peaceful slumber.

This is where a soothing essential oil pillow spray for beauty sleep comes in. This DIY pillow spray recipe is a simple way to add a calming fragrance to your bedding, encouraging relaxation and helping you drift off into a deep sleep.

Whether you have essential oils or not, this recipe includes options for both, as well as an alcohol-free version. Whatever supplies you have on hand, you’ll be able to create your own pillow mist.

For the ultimate wind-down, try pairing this spray with a relaxing lavender shower steamer during your bedtime routine. To take it even further, apply a homemade magnesium lotion once you’re tucked into bed for extra relaxation!

How this pillow spray helps for sleep

As we explored in our post on DIY aromatherapy perfume, the scents of certain essential oils have the ability to soothe the mind and body. If sleep is a struggle for you, essential oils can be a powerful addition to your nighttime routine.

And what better place to experience their calming effects than right beside your head, on your pillow?

It’s not recommended to apply essential oils directly to your pillow, as they can be too concentrated. However, by making your own DIY sleep spray, you can safely dilute the oils for proper use.

Plus, it’s a fantastic way to enjoy the benefits of essential oils without the need for a diffuser!

Lavender essential oil for sleep

Below, I’ve shared 3 calming essential oil blends for your pillow spray, each featuring Bulgarian lavender oil.

Why choose lavender for your sleep spray? Lavender is one of the most renowned and well-researched essential oils for promoting rest and reducing stress. Numerous studies have highlighted lavender oil’s powerful sedative, anxiety-relieving, and calming properties, making it a go-to choice for improving sleep through aromatherapy.

Lavender’s sleep-enhancing benefits are threefold. First, as a sedative, lavender oil can help you feel sleepy. Second, its anxiolytic properties can ease the anxiety that might be keeping you awake.

Not only can lavender essential oil help you fall asleep faster, but it can also improve the quality of your sleep. Research has shown that lavender’s soothing fragrance enhances sleep quality and promotes deeper rest.3,1

However, it’s important to note that this effect is even stronger when combined with good sleep hygiene. So, be sure to incorporate healthy habits into your nighttime routine, like limiting blue light exposure before bed.

Engaging in relaxing activities is also key. One calming ritual you can try? Gently massaging your face with a homemade lavender cleansing balm. While you’re at it, check out 5 tips to protect yourself from blue light!

DIY sleep spray ingredients

While there are plenty of store-bought pillow sprays available, there’s really no need to buy one when making your own at home is so simple.

To create your DIY pillow spray, all you need is a liquid base like vodka or witch hazel, a natural emulsifier (as shown below), and your favorite essential oils (or a hydrosol). You’ll also need a glass spray bottle to store and dispense your homemade spray.

VODKA, ALCOHOL, OR WITCH HAZEL

For the longest shelf life, I recommend using vodka or high-proof alcohol, as it helps prevent bacterial growth. However, if you prefer a version without alcohol, you can use witch hazel, as long as it contains a preservative to keep it fresh.

Tip: You can use any leftover alcohol or witch hazel to create your own DIY perfume.

NATURAL EMULSIFIER

A natural emulsifier is key for dispersing the essential oils in your pillow spray. Since essential oils don’t mix with water, the oils would simply float on top without an emulsifier. This is problematic because spray nozzles dispense from the bottom, not the top!

There are various natural emulsifiers and solubilizers you can use for this recipe. I used Capryl/Caprylyl Glucoside from my Simply Earth essential oil box, which comes in a convenient dropper bottle for easy dispensing and measuring. If you don’t have this emulsifier, I’ve listed other options in the how-to section below.

If you’re hesitant to buy another ingredient, rest assured that emulsifiers are easy to use—just mix with your essential oils before adding the rest of the ingredients. Plus, any leftover emulsifier can be used in other DIY projects like essential oil deodorant or room sprays.

If you decide not to use an emulsifier, remember to shake your pillow spray well before each use. However, this can result in uneven distribution of the oils, which isn’t ideal.

ESSENTIAL OILS

It’s important to avoid using products with synthetic fragrances, especially in pillow sprays, as they often contain chemicals that can be irritating and lead to headaches—something you definitely don’t want when trying to fall asleep!

Unlike artificial fragrances, essential oils like lavender contain natural aromatic compounds that offer real benefits. Lavender, in particular, is known for its calming, sleep-inducing properties, making it an ideal choice for your DIY pillow spray.

While lavender is one of the best essential oils for relaxation, it’s far from the only option. This homemade pillow spray recipe includes three different essential oil blends to promote sleep, which you can customize based on your preferences.

HYDROSOL

If you’d prefer a pillow spray without essential oils, you can use lavender hydrosol, the floral water left over from the essential oil distillation process. Simply spritz lavender hydrosol directly onto your bedding—there’s no need to mix it with anything else!

While hydrosols are not as potent as essential oils, they retain many of their benefits. Their light fragrance makes them a great option for those who are sensitive to stronger scents or for use with children.

ESSENTIAL OIL BLENDS FOR PILLOW SPRAY

Here are three calming essential oil blends for your lavender sleep spray. Each blend has its own unique fragrance profile and benefits:

Sleepytime Lavender:

  • 12 drops Sleepy essential oil blend
  • OR 5 drops lavender essential oil
  • 3 drops ho wood essential oil
  • 2 drops bergamot essential oil
  • 2 drops grapefruit essential oil

Lavender Vanilla:

  • 5 drops lavender essential oil
  • 5 drops vanilla essential oil
  • 2 drops patchouli essential oil (or copaiba essential oil)

Lavender Chamomile:

  • 5 drops lavender essential oil
  • 4 drops chamomile essential oil
  • 4 drops amyris essential oil

Feel free to experiment with these blends to find the perfect scent that helps you unwind and relax before bed!

SLEEPTIME LAVENDER

The Sleepy blend is a relaxing mix of lavender, ho wood, grapefruit, and bergamot essential oils that I received in my Simply Earth Essential Oil Recipe Box. I was curious about the choice of citrus oils in this blend, since citrus scents are typically invigorating. I often use them in energizing products like “wake me up” shower steamers and roll-ons.

However, I was pleasantly surprised by this blend. The citrus notes mellow out the lavender, which can sometimes be overpowering or too floral. This makes it a great option for those who want the benefits of lavender essential oil for sleep but find its scent too strong or intense.

Ho wood adds a grounding, earthy tone to the blend, while also acting as a fixative oil, which helps the fragrance last longer on your pillow. Sleepy comes pre-bottled as a blend, so it’s easier and more affordable than buying each individual oil to recreate it on your own.

LAVENDER VANILLA

Lavender essential oil is already an effective natural sleep aid, but when paired with vanilla oleoresin, it creates a calming blend that smells like a sweet dessert. Vanilla is also known for its relaxing properties, making this combination a perfect bedtime scent. The warm, comforting aroma of lavender and vanilla together can help you unwind and drift off to sleep with ease. This blend not only promotes relaxation but also creates a cozy, indulgent experience.

LAVENDER VANILLA WITH PATCHOULI

I also added a couple of drops of patchouli to my lavender vanilla pillow mist. Patchouli is one of those scents that people either love or hate, but it has powerful aromatherapeutic properties that can help reduce anxiety. Plus, it’s the most well-known fixative essential oil, meaning it helps your pillow spray’s fragrance last throughout the night.

That said, I know not everyone is fond of patchouli’s distinct aroma. If you’re one of those who aren’t keen on it, you can easily swap it for copaiba oil, which also has calming properties. Copaiba has a sweet, slightly spicy scent that pairs beautifully with lavender and vanilla. Additionally, if you’re on a budget, you can choose a more affordable vanilla blend instead of pure vanilla essential oil.

LAVENDER CHAMOMILE

This Lavender Chamomile blend combines floral lavender, herbal chamomile, and sweet amyris for a pillow spray recipe that smells just like a calming cup of lavender chamomile tea. Chamomile is well-known for its relaxing properties, which is why chamomile tea is such a classic bedtime drink.

Chamomile essential oil also carries these sedative effects, which help promote relaxation and reduce insomnia.

The addition of amyris adds a rich, vanilla-like aroma to the blend. While amyris may not be as extensively studied as lavender oil for its sleep benefits, it’s certainly linked to relaxation. I personally find its fragrance to be deeply calming and peaceful.

If you prefer a sweeter-scented spray, especially for children, you can replace amyris with benzoin oil, which has a similar soothing effect and a lovely fragrance that’s more universally liked.

DIY Pillow Spray Recipe

INGREDIENTS

  • 12 drops lavender essential oil blend (choose from the blends above)
  • 36 drops natural liquid emulsifier (options below)
  • 1/4 cup vodka, high-proof alcohol, or witch hazel

EQUIMENT

  • 2oz glass spray bottle
  • Small funnel
  • Glass pipette for measuring

HOW TO MAKE ESSENTIAL OIL SLEEP SPRAY

  • Sanitize: Start by cleaning and sanitizing your spray bottle and all equipment to ensure the spray stays fresh.
  • Add Essential Oils: Using a glass pipette, measure and add your chosen sleep essential oil blend to the glass spray bottle.
    • Add Emulsifier: Using a glass pipette, drop the liquid emulsifier into the bottle, one drop at a time. Pause occasionally to swirl the mixture gently, ensuring the emulsifier blends well with the essential oils.
    • Shake and Mix: Once you’ve added the emulsifier, securely replace the nozzle of your spray bottle and shake it gently to ensure the solution is thoroughly mixed.
    • Add Alcohol or Witch Hazel: Using a funnel, pour your chosen liquid base (vodka, high-proof alcohol, or witch hazel) into the bottle to fill the rest of the container. Leave a little space at the top to allow for shaking.
      • Final Shake: Affix the spray nozzle to your bottle and shake well to ensure everything is fully combined. Your DIY sleep spray is now ready to use! Spritz it onto your pillow or bedding before bedtime for a calming, restful night’s sleep.

      Natural Emulsifiers for Essential Oil Sprays

      Here are some natural solubilizers and liquid emulsifiers you can use in your pillow spray recipe. Choose the one that’s most accessible to you, as availability may vary depending on location:

      • Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside
      • Emulsium (available in Canada only)
      • CreamMaker FLUID (available in Canada or USA)
      • Polyglyceryl Oleate
      • Poly Suga Mulse D9

      How to Use Your Pillow Mist for Sleep

      Here are a few ways you can incorporate your calming pillow mist into your bedtime routine:

      Spritz on Your Pillow: The most common way to use your spray is to dispense 1-3 sprays directly onto your pillow before you sleep. This will help infuse your bedding with a relaxing fragrance as you drift off.

      Spray on Your Sheets: You can also use your pillow spray as a homemade linen spray. Spritz it onto your sheets, duvet, or blankets to imbue your entire bed with the calming aroma.

      Room Spray: For a broader relaxing effect, use the spray as a calming room mist. This is a great way to enjoy the benefits of aromatherapy in your space, even if you don’t have a diffuser. Simply spritz around the room for a peaceful atmosphere.

        Important Tip: Keep in mind that darker essential oils like vanilla and chamomile can stain light-colored fabrics. To avoid any potential damage, always perform a patch test in an inconspicuous area of your fabric before using your pillow spray more widely.

        Additionally, be cautious when using your sleep spray on delicate fabrics like silk. While I personally use a 30 momme silk pillowcase with no issues, it’s always a good idea to test it first on a small area to ensure it doesn’t cause any staining or damage.

        Sweet dreams!

        CONCLUSION

        Making your own DIY pillow spray is an easy and effective way to enhance your sleep routine with the calming power of essential oils. With just a few simple ingredients like essential oils, a natural emulsifier, and a liquid base, you can create a customized sleep spray that promotes relaxation and restful slumber. Whether you choose lavender, chamomile, or a blend of oils, the right fragrance can help ease anxiety and prepare your mind for sleep.

        Remember, always perform a patch test to ensure your spray is safe for your fabrics, especially with delicate materials like silk. And, by incorporating your pillow spray into a calming bedtime routine, you’re setting yourself up for sweet dreams and a better night’s rest. Sweet dreams, and enjoy your peaceful slumber!

This elegant dress often features a silky or satin material and a simple silhouette that blends perfectly with The Sims 4’s aesthetic. Look for details like thin straps, a fitted bodice, and a flowing skirt that adds a touch of drama.

        FERAL POODLES’ BAT WINGS

        While “feral poodles” and “bat wings” sound like a quirky, unexpected combination, it’s likely not referring to actual content in The Sims 4. The Sims series typically leans towards a more realistic aesthetic, and ferocious poodles with leathery wings wouldn’t quite fit the Maxis Match style. This term might be a playful invention within the Sims community, or it could be a reference to custom content from a different game altogether.

        MAVIS DRACULA HAIR

        Want your vampires to truly stand out from the crowd? Bright eye CC for The Sims 4 in the Maxis Match style offers a unique twist on the classic vampire aesthetic. Instead of the usual glowing red eyes, you can explore vibrant colors, unusual pupils like hearts or stars, or even a touch of heterochromia (different colored eyes). These eye customizations will add a touch of personality and intrigue to your undead creations, all while staying true to the overall look and feel of The Sims 4.

        MONARCH FANG SET

        For those seeking a touch of aristocratic elegance for their vampires, the Monarch Fang Set is a perfect choice in the realm of Maxis Match CC. Imagine sharp, elongated fangs that gleam with a subtle pearlescent sheen. This type of CC stays true to the Maxis Match aesthetic by avoiding overly monstrous fangs, instead offering a more refined and sophisticated look. The Monarch Fang Set will add a touch of distinction to your vampire Sim, making them appear as though they belong to a lineage of powerful undead nobility.

        GOTHIC LACE BLOUSE EDIT (VAMPIRES GAME PACK REQUIRED)

        Channel your inner vampire royalty with a Gothic Lace Blouse edit! This custom content piece, likely for The Sims 4, requires the Vampires Game Pack. Imagine a blouse crafted from luxurious black fabric adorned with delicate black lace. The edit might add subtle details like a high neck or a flowing peplum, perfect for a formal vampire gathering. This Maxis Match edit ensures the blouse seamlessly blends with the game’s art style, making it a versatile addition to your vampire’s wardrobe. Pair it with a sleek skirt for a sophisticated look, or add a pair of dark jeans for a more casual yet still elegant vibe.

        NATURAL OMBRE CLAWS

        Embrace a subtle yet stylish touch for your vampire with natural ombre claws! This type of Maxis Match custom content offers a unique take on the classic vampire manicure. Imagine nails that gradually transition from a soft pink or nude at the base to a crisp white at the tips. This effect adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to your vampire’s look, while staying true to the realistic aesthetic of Maxis Match. Natural ombre claws are perfect for vampires who want to keep things understated yet undeniably chic.

        VAMPIRE HUNTER DRESS

        Unleash your inner monster slayer with a Vampire Hunter Dress! This Maxis Match CC outfit equips your Sim for action and style. Imagine a practical yet fashionable design, perhaps featuring sturdy leather accents for protection and a dark color palette for nighttime hunts. Look for details like functional pockets for storing vampire-hunting tools and a silhouette that allows for freedom of movement. The Vampire Hunter Dress will make your Sim the epitome of gothic badassery, ready to take on the night and vanquish any lurking vampires.

        GENTLEMAN’S FORTUNE MALE SHIRT

This shirt is designed with intricate details and a sleek fit, making it perfect for both casual and formal occasions.

A perfectly painted red or plum lip adds a touch of sophistication, while the makeup avoids excessive shimmer or glitter to maintain the Maxis Match aesthetic. This CC set will transform your vampire into a vision of aristocratic elegance, ready to rule the night with grace and power.

        VAMPIRE BITES

        Vampire bites are a classic element in the lore of the undead, symbolizing both danger and allure. These bites typically appear as two puncture wounds on the neck, marking the spot where a vampire has fed on a victim. They are often depicted in literature and film as a seductive yet sinister act, drawing humans into the vampire’s thrall. In popular culture, vampire bites can lead to the transformation of the bitten individual into a vampire themselves, perpetuating the cycle of immortality and bloodlust. The fascination with vampire bites continues to captivate audiences, blending themes of romance, horror, and the supernatural.

        ELEGANT VAMPIRE DRESS

        For a timeless and sophisticated look, consider an Elegant Vampire Dress in the Maxis Match style. Imagine a dress crafted from luxurious velvet or satin that drapes elegantly over your Sim’s figure. Look for details that add a touch of drama, like a plunging neckline, a flowing train, or even delicate lace accents. This type of dress allows your vampire Sim to exude an air of mystery and allure, perfect for a grand ball or a night out on the town. Paired with statement jewelry and sleek heels, the Elegant Vampire Dress will make your undead Sim the epitome of gothic chic.

        DOLCE VAMPIRE EYES (VAMPIRES GAME PACK REQUIRED)

        Calling all vampire enthusiasts with the Vampires Game Pack! Looking to enhance your undead creations with mesmerizing eyes?

With the Dolce Vampire Eyes, your undead creations will truly captivate and command attention wherever they go.

        GAPPED VAMPIRE TEETH

        Even within the realm of Maxis Match, there’s room for a touch of classic vampire flair! For those who crave a hint of the traditional look, “Gapped Vampire Teeth” offer a subtle tweak. These Maxis Match fangs (The Sims 4, Vampires Game Pack required) add a bit of personality without going overboard. Imagine slightly elongated canines with a subtle gap between them, staying true to the game’s overall style while hinting at your Sim’s vampiric nature. This custom content avoids monstrous fangs, ensuring your vampire appears unique and stylishly undead.

        VAMPIRE TEETH (WITH BRACES)

        While undeniably funny to imagine, vampire teeth with braces aren’t currently possible in The Sims 4, even with mods.  The game mechanics don’t allow for accessories like braces to interact with custom fangs.  However, that doesn’t mean your vampire teen can’t have a unique look! Explore Maxis Match custom content for hairstyles that cover part of the face, or try layering a face mask over the bottom portion for a trendy yet mysterious vibe.  With a little creativity, you can still craft a memorable vampire Sim even if their fangs have to wait a bit for their braces to come off.

        VAMPIRE STUFF CC

        Breathe new life into your vampire’s world with Vampire Stuff CC! This type of custom content can encompass a variety of Maxis Match items to flesh out your vampire’s existence. Imagine spooky yet stylish furniture for a creepy crypt or a luxurious coffin for ultimate undead rest. Vampire Stuff CC might also include decorative items like dusty tomes filled with dark magic secrets or dramatic candelabras for an extra gothic touch. With these Maxis Match additions, you can create a unique and immersive atmosphere for your vampire Sims to live (or should we say, un-live) their best undead lives.

        BAT WINGS

        Adding a touch of the dramatic to your vampire Sim? Consider Maxis Match bat wings! While not as monstrous as some depictions, these CC wings stay true to the game’s art style. Imagine sleek, translucent wings that fold neatly when not in use. They might come in a variety of understated colors like black or grey, and some creators might even offer subtle variations in texture or size. Maxis Match bat wings add a touch of gothic flair to your vampire, making them stand out without clashing with the overall aesthetic of The Sims 4.

        Take your Sims’ makeup to the next level with Dracula Eyeliner for The Sims 4! This Maxis Match custom content adds a touch of the dramatic to your vampire’s look without straying from the game’s art style.

Whether you prefer a classic, sharp wing or a more smudged and smoky effect, Dracula Eyeliner lets you create a mesmerizing vampire gaze that’s both stylish and unique.

        EDEA DRESS

While staying true to the Maxis Match aesthetic, a Medieval Vampire Outfit allows your undead Sim to embrace a bit of old-world charm and mystery.

        VAMPIRE SKIN (MM)

These CC options stay true to the game’s original art style, avoiding overly dramatic pallor or unrealistic textures. Instead, imagine a slight increase in paleness, perhaps with a hint of a cool undertone, that gives your vampire Sim an otherworldly glow. Some creators might even include subtle details like darkened veins beneath the skin or a touch of shimmer around the eyes, all while maintaining a natural, believable look. Maxis Match vampire skins allow you to add a touch of distinction to your vampire Sim without sacrificing the overall aesthetic of The Sims 4.

        VAMPIRE DIARIES BLOODSHOT EYES
