Menopause and Polar Pillow
 Review and Giveaway
Oh! these are wonderful times...NOT! Night sweats and hot flashes make sleeping an adventure for me and my poor Hubby. Tossing and turning and just plain miserable. I have my air conditioner set at a warm 60 degrees at night. Still there is no relief. 
The makers of Polar Pillow have saved me from sweaty, sleepless nights on the menopause roller coaster. 

I was sent two different products to review. The first was the Polar Pillow. 

Polar Pillow ®

  • Cooling pillow with turbo-cooling pack.
  • Gel layer on top, pocket for cooling pack in center & soft poly-fill on the bottom.
  • Stays cool all night with turbo-cooling pack.
  • Firm level of support is ideal for side-sleepers & good for back sleepers.

The Polar Pillow surprised me. It was heavy but very soft on the outside. A cooling pack came with it. You just put the Turbo Cooling Pack in the fridge until cold and then slip it into the middle of the Polar Pillow. Voila!  My first night sleeping with it was wonderful! I slept through the night and had NO night sweats. I couldn't believe it. It was cool but not so cold that it would have been uncomfortable. I can't say for sure how long it stayed cold...because I SLEPT!


The next product I tried was the Turbo Cooling Pillowcase.

Turbo-Cooling Pillowcase

  • Turn your favorite standard pillow into a cooling pillow with this pillowcase! 
  • Pillowcase fits any standard size pillow (standard pillow not included).
  • Comes with one Turbo-Cooling Pack that fits in the front pocket of the case for cool sleep.
 This is a great product if you want to use your own favorite pillow, but you still would like to have some relief. The Turbo Cooling Pillowcase was so soft to the touch. It also comes with a Turbo Cooling Pack. There is a pocket especially made for the cooling pack. I used this one night while I slept. While this was a great product too, I still liked the Polar Pillow better. And let me tell you why:
The Polar Pillow stays colder longer than the Turbo Cooling Pillowcase. 

Now, I am just greedy, or maybe it's because I have just found the perfect combo for combating hot flashes and night sweats. If you are at war with menopause at night, you have to try both of them at the same time. 

I used the Polar Pillow to rest my head on and the Turbo Cooling Pillowcase on my pillow to hug. Talk about cooling down!!!
These don't have to be used just at night. While I am relaxing, I put my Polar Pillow on my lap. It helps when the hot flashes decide to try and burn me alive. 
You can also use these when you have a sunburn or even when trying to bring down a fever. 

The wonderful people at Polar Pillow have given a chance for one of my lucky readers to win the Polar Pillow AND the Turbo Cooling Pillowcase!
