Seven-product botanical line is formulated to encourage sleep and ward off insomnia, the Estee Lauder company said. The line-up contains natural ingredients such as valerian, cinnamon, lavender, neroli and vanilla that are said to help induce sleep in bath, body and home products such as Sleep Time On-The-Spot massage gel, Call It A Night body lotion and Float Away milk bath. A double-blind study showed participants who bathed with Float Away, formulated with Roman chamomile and tangerine leaf, experienced 35% sounder sleep and nighttime awakenings were reduced by 55%, Origins claims. Available in October, Origins' Sensory Therapy line is priced from $12.50 for a box of 20 nighttime digestive tea bags to $22.50 for Call It A Night Sleep-Deepening Body Lotion
