In the sweltering heat of summer nights, finding a solution to beat the heat while catching some much-needed z's can be a challenge. One such product that claims to provide relief is the Kool 'n' Soothe Night Cooling Spray.

The reviewer, a self-proclaimed hot sleeper, turned to this product due to the relentless high temperatures experienced at night. Upon testing during a heatwave, the product was found to make the reviewer feel cooler in bed, offering an immediate cooling effect that was most noticeable in the early evening, helping with nighttime heat.

The Kool 'n' Soothe Night Cooling Spray works by hydrating and soothing the skin, potentially helping reduce heat discomfort during sleep. It contains ethanol, a highly flammable substance, so it's essential to exercise caution when using it, especially if pets share your bed.

The product's scent is described as chemical or medicinal, a stark contrast to traditional pillow sprays that are soft, subtle, and calming. The reviewer suggests an alternative: the thisworks sleep spray with Lavender, Camomile, and Vetivert scents.

Despite the product's 3.6-star rating on Amazon, opinions on it were varied. Some users found it effective, while others reported minor irritation or sensitivity from skin contact with the cooling agents.

The cooling effect of the Kool 'n' Soothe Night Cooling Spray is a dampness that doesn't dry quickly, persisting for several hours. For those seeking a more sustained relief, alternatives like cooling water mists or complementary cooling solutions like fans may be considered.

The reviewer prefers using a cooling water mist or a standard sleep spray to help with sleeping in hot weather. They currently have and love a wool duvet on their bed, which is thermoregulatory and more effective than down or synthetic duvets. The thisworks sleep spray, currently on sale, resides on the reviewer's nightstand.

The Kool 'n' Soothe Night Cooling Spray is priced at £7.20 and was delivered next day thanks to Amazon Prime. While it may not be suitable for everyone, for those seeking a short-term solution to beat the heat, it could be a worthwhile addition to their bedtime routine.
