What’s in My Bedtime Basket? 10 Cozy Essentials for the Perfect Night In

If your nighttime routine could use a little upgrade, meet your new favorite ritual: the bedtime basket.

You’ve probably seen bedtime baskets taking over your social feed, and we’re fully on board. The idea is simple: fill a cute basket with all the little things you reach for when you’re winding down, then keep it right by your bed. Think skincare, cozy essentials, hair accessories and anything else that makes staying in feel so much better.

Ready to build your own? Here’s what’s in our bedtime basket.

1. Your Current Read

First things first: something to help you put down the phone. Keep your current book tucked into your basket so it’s always within reach when you’re ready to unplug, get cozy and call it a night.

2. Wake-Up Call Gel Under Eye Pads

A little nighttime depuff is always a good idea. Lemon Lavender Wake-Up Call Gel Under Eye Pads are an easy addition to your wind-down routine when your under-eyes could use a little extra TLC.

Grab them from the freezer, pop them on, sit down with your book and let your bedtime routine do its thing.

3. Knot Today 2-Pack Detangling Shower Comb

Wash night? We've got you.

Keep the Knot Today 2-Pack Detangling Shower Comb nearby for gently working through tangles after your shower. One for the bathroom, one for the basket. We don't make the rules.

4. Calm Your Zits Acne Patches

Because somehow breakouts always know when you have somewhere to be.

The Calm Your Zits Acne Patches make spot care an easy part of your nighttime routine. Apply before bed and let them stay put while you catch some Zzz's.

5. File It Away Nail Care Kit 

There’s something about doing your nails from bed that just makes sense.

The File It Away Nail Care Kit keeps your nail essentials together for quick touch-ups, whether you're fixing a snag or giving yourself a little at-home mani before bed.

6. You Had Me at Aloe Super Soft Spa Socks

Possibly the coziest member of the bedtime basket.

Slip on the You Had Me at Aloe Super Soft Spa Socks when your feet need a little extra love. They're soft, cozy and exactly the kind of tiny luxury a bedtime basket deserves.

7. Claw Clips + Scrunchies

No bedtime basket is complete without a few hair essentials. Toss in your favorite claw clip and a soft scrunchie so you're always prepared to get your hair up and out of the way for skincare, reading or lounging.

8. Lip Balm

Dry lips at 11 p.m.? Absolutely not.

Keep one, or let's be realistic, a few of your favorite lip balms in your basket. No getting out of bed required.

9. Under Pressure Hot & Cold Weighted Eye Mask

For nights when you really need to shut the world out, reach for the Under Pressure Hot & Cold Weighted Eye Mask.

Use it hot or cold depending on your mood, then settle in, get comfortable and enjoy a well-deserved moment of do not disturb.

10. Whatever Makes Bedtime Better

The best part about the bedtime basket trend? There are no rules.

Add hand cream, a journal, snacks, headphones, whatever makes your evening routine feel a little easier and a lot cozier.

Consider this your sign to romanticize your nighttime routine.

Grab a basket, gather your favorite cozy essentials and keep everything you need for your nightly wind-down in one easy-to-reach spot. And if your basket could use a few more self-care favorites, Lemon Lavender has you covered.
