We're serious about prioritising our sleep all year round, but around the festive period, life (and celebrations!) can get in the way. However, after Christmas sales are an excellent time to get hold of items that will put a great night's rest back at the forefront after all the excitement.

Sleeping on one of this year's best mattresses for your sleep style is the number one way to maximise the quality of your sleep. But if you just need to block out the noise, we recommend a solid pair of noise cancelling ear plugs.

Besides tracking this year's best mattress deals and sales, we've also been on the hunt for the best sleep-enhancing products on the market. From sunrise alarm clocks to weighted blankets and eye masks, we've tried them all. But here, we're zoning in on why noise reducing ear plugs are a great buy in the sales that come after Christmas.

Our team tested these ear plugs and found they successfully blocked out nighttime noise, even with our tester living next to a nightclub.
