10 Super Cool Bedding Essentials For When You Run Hot At Night

The key to a comfortable bed that keeps you cool enough to stay asleep throughout the night is no doubt the sheets. But while some materials – like percale and linen, for example – claim to keep you cool, when temperatures soar into the 80s and 90s, you need something more. TENCEL Sateen Sheets from Brooklyn Bedding are made from some of the gentlest and softest sheet fibers you can find – TENCEL. TENCEL makes for luxurious bed linens that absorb moisture better than cotton and naturally regulate your body’s temperature. These sheets keep your bed (and body!) feeling cool and dry thanks to natural fibers derived from sustainable wood sources from natural forests and sustainably managed plantations. Available in colors blue slate, white, stone, and champagne, TENCEL Sateen Sheets from Brooklyn Bedding feel silky, have a natural sheen, and lower your body’s temperature so that you’re not waking up every five minutes to dry off.

When it comes to cooling, moisture-wicking, and temperature-regulating materials, Nest Bedding reigns supreme. But cooling bedding doesn’t just mean a bamboo duvet or satin sheets. No, truly cooling bedding starts under the sheets. Nest Bedding’s Alexander Signature Cooling Topper is designed with hot sleepers in mind. The topper is made with luxury cooling fabric, Energex Foam, to add both comfort and the necessary airflow to your existing mattress. The Cooling Topper is just 2 inches tall but though she be tiny, she also be mighty. It attaches with straps to all four corners of your mattress, then once it’s been covered by a sheet, the Cooling Topper works its moisture-wicking magic. No matter how long you’ve suffered from night sweats, the Alexander Signature Cooling Topper works from the ground up (literally) to bring you a cool, calm, and collected night’s sleep.

It never loses its fluff, going flat just when you need the airiness the most and even after laundering it, the Codi Air Eucalyptus Comforter remains puffy and soft. The interior Lyocell fibers never shift (don’t you hate when the duvet does that?) and never make you sweat. In fact, they’ll keep you cool even on the hottest August nights. Guess there’s something to be said for vegan bedding, huh?!
