Cooling Pillow Mats

'Penguin' is a Cooling Gel Mat That Helps to Beat the Summer Heat

— July 24, 2017 — Lifestyle
Beat the heat this summer with the Penguin Cooling Pillow Mat, a comfortable sleep aid that can help to control body temperature at night.

Nothing is worse than trying to fall asleep in a pool of one's own sweat. Along with being uncomfortable, high temperatures can create body pain or headaches come the morning. This gel mat can be laid across your pillow to help a sleeper comfortably unwind. The mat fits the width of a standard pillow and is comprised of a gel that "utilizes macro-molecule cooling." Users are simply directed to place the mat in the fridge about an hour before bedtime so the product can reach an optimal cooling temperature.

The Penguin Cooling Mat is ideal for anyone suffering from the adverse effects of warmer seasons, especially those without access to central air conditioning.
