Sourced direct
Made in U.S.A.
Sleep Cream delivers melatonin transdermally for steady release, promotes nervous system calm, and hydrates skin overnight.
- ■Steady Release: Delivers melatonin transdermally for steady release throughout the night, avoiding the spike-and-drop pattern of oral supplements.
- ■Nervous System Calm: Promotes nervous system calm before bed through lavender and calming botanicals that activate parasympathetic relaxation responses.
- ■Overnight Hydration: Hydrates skin overnight with emollients and hyaluronic acid that lock in moisture during your body's peak repair window.
- ■Natural Onset: Supports natural sleep onset through the ritual of application combined with steady melatonin delivery to reinforce your circadian cues.
Use With Caution
Autoimmune condition: Melatonin stimulates immune function — may worsen autoimmune conditions.
Seizure disorder: Melatonin may interact with seizure threshold in some individuals.
Doesn't Pair Well With
Botanical Sleep Complex — Both contain melatonin. Combining oral and transdermal melatonin creates excessive total dose.
Sleep Strips — Both contain melatonin. Combining sublingual and transdermal melatonin doubles your melatonin intake.

6 Reasons Your Sleep Isn't Actually Restoring You
Duration is not the same as quality. Six specific mechanisms determine whether the hours you sleep actually restore you — and each one can be addressed independently.
5 Skincare Actives That Work Better From the Inside Out
Retinol, hyaluronic acid, peptide serums — topical actives do real work. But the mechanisms they try to trigger internally are more efficiently reached from below the epidermis. Here's where the layering actually matters.
Melatonin: Why Less Is More (And What Most People Get Wrong About Dosage)
The 10mg melatonin gummy is one of the most well-intentioned mistakes in the supplement aisle. Here's the mechanism that explains why the dose most people take is actively counterproductive — and what actually works.
