Product Information

Foam. Foam earplugs are the most inexpensive option. They’re also soft, which makes them a good choice for sleeping. However, their porous material makes them a good environment for bacteria, so you’ll need to replace them often. Earplugs are generally divided into vented and non-vented types. Vented earplugs have a small hole, which helps to equalize the pressure in your ear. These are useful for flying and scuba diving, but don’t work any better than non-vented earplugs when it comes to sleeping. Sound happens when air molecules vibrate. Noise happens when air molecules vibrate across a broad range of frequencies. And white noise is a special category whereby air molecules vibrate equally across all of the frequencies within human hearing. That's makes it structurally similar to white light, which is a combination of all visible light wavelengths; hence the 'white' in the name. Silicone has anti-microbial properties, making it resistant to bacteria. For that reason, you can wash and re-wear your Loop Quiet Earplugs over and over again. It’s best to avoid hard silicone earplugs, which users typically find uncomfortable to sleep with. What earplugs won’t fall out while sleeping?

Reusable earplugs use more durable materials engineered to stand up to nightly use. They should be cleaned regularly, which some owners may find inconvenient. However, they produce less waste and may save you money over time. And while we’ll happily proclaim the benefits of investing in the best pillow sets, a solid duvet, perhaps a sleep mask and definitely one of the best electric blankets to keep warm this winter, the best thing you can do is invest in a pair of single-use, disposable foam earplugs to drown out the sound of antisocial neighbours, snoring partners, noisy birds and 4am bin men. If you like the idea of using white noise to sleep, Martin suggests you follow a few simple steps. The first is choose an audio source that suits your preferences. "This could be a dedicated white noise machine, a fan, or a smartphone app that provides various soothing sounds," says Martin. "Place it at a distance that allows the sound to cover the room without being too loud or disruptive."

Alpine SleepDeep Ear Plugs for better sleeping – Alpine

We tried the 'Quiet' earplugs, which are best for sleep thanks to the soft, flexible silicone loops – no discomfort for side sleepers – and highest decibel reduction the brand offers. They're very comfortable to the point you can barely notice you're wearing them, but still form a tight seal once you get the fit right – which is easily done, as they come with four different sized ear tips.These innovative earplugs are made from a thermoplastic material developed by Alpine called AlpineThermoShape™. This material is super soft and skin-friendly and moulds to the shape of the ear canal, ensuring a perfect fit so they stay in place. ATS doesn't contain silicones and doesn't cause allergic reactions or itching. Use the earplugs in every situation, whether you are studying, focussing, relaxing or travelling.

Deep Sleep Ear Plugs - Earplugs for Sleep - 30 Pairs - 37dB

No devices (aka the dreaded blue light) ideally in the bedroom at all, and certainly not right before bed. Reusable vs. single-use: There are pros and cons to both types. Of course, disposable earplugs are usually cheaper. However, they’re also not as durable or environmentally friendly. Earplugs can also build up gunk if they’re not used as intended (if they’re used more than once). Unlike foam earplugs, putty earplugs cover the outer opening of the ear, instead of plugging the ear canal. This makes them more comfortable for people who find foam earplugs: Putting extra wax in your ears: sounds gross, is actually genius. That's because these babies use your natural body heat to gently soften, making them both malleable for easy insertion and able to naturally mould to your ear once inside, so they form a comfortable seal (squish them around in your fingers for a bit before putting them in).Speaking of winding down, it's a good idea to budget around 30 minutes for pre-bed relaxation, such as reading, meditation or breathing exercises.

If, however, you need some soothing sounds, music, or audiobooks to help you drift off, there are options here too, such as the Amazfit or Bose offerings.

"This helps signal to your brain that it's time to relax and wind down," says Martin. "Adjust the volume to a level that is comfortable and soothing for you." Keeping a routine – ideally you want to wake up at the same time each morning, get plenty of light during the day to regulate your circadian rhythm, and stay physically active too. All of these types will remain comfortably in your ears, provided that they mold to your ear canal and fit well. If you have trouble finding earplugs that stay in while you’re asleep, consider getting a custom-made, reusable pair. Are foam or silicone earplugs better? In our tests, we found them extremely comfortable (even when sleeping on our side), and we got about four nights' use from the Sleepbuds II between charges. That's a big improvement on the original Bose Sleepbuds.
